Yes I said while you drive. It sounds funny but bare with me. It really does work and you feel the burn. While you are driving to work or whatever turn on the radio to a fast fun song and (don't laugh) squeeze your butt cheeks to the beat. You do this for the whole song and you will feel the burn. You can even repeat it after resting for a song or so. It sound funny but it works.

I do it alot. LOL

LOL Theresa, just don't cause a wreck! I find myself tightening and untightening my stomach muscles when I am just sitting around, whether at work or driving down the road. My poor abdominal muscles are so out of wack from carrying most of my weight in my stomach, they need all the help they can get.

LOL I sorry it has taken so long for me to reply. It has been crazy lately. I usually only do this when I am alone in the vehicle. LOL And only when I am on the highway so I don't have to worry about stoplights and such. LOL So has anyone tried it yet????

Anyone passing by my desk must have thought I had to use the toilet!!!
Maybe if I want to try that again I will go in my training room and work LOL

I try the calf exercises under my desk -tapping your toes out front then to the side then front again varying the number of taps, then switch legs. That's from an exercise video and can still do sitting down.

I work on the second floor of my office building and I try to go downstairs atleast once an hour. All my co-workers know I'm crazy, but this really helps me keep my energy level up.

I tried the (for lack of a better term), butt crunches while I was driving my route on Weds. At first it was easy...then I made a game out of it and tried to see how long I could hold a crunch. I lasted for 15 mins. I think I could have gone longer, but I had to stand up to change my destination sign and I didnt want passengers getting the wrong idea. I did feel a little sore the next day so these things (silly as you feel doing them) really do work. Reese Witherspoon type butt, here I come!
