The posture gives me pins and needles in my legs!

Question

The ZAZEN posture (at least the one I take) gives me pins and needles in
my legs, which eventually go numb. However much I try to have
WILLPOWER or COURAGE or STUPIDITY, as you like, I end up
straightening that damned leg… Any advice? (If possible, something other than
keep going…)

Answer from Master Kosen

If you can no longer feel your legs, what are you complaining about?
