I will join for the fact of maybe growing a butt!  I have lost all my thighs, not much of any hips and I have a flat butt!  so Im in to keep toning and gain a badonkadonk!

Slappy,

You can take some of mine. I was walking by the mirror the other day and stopped in fear.. could it be? My butt looks just like my mother's. That has got to change.

I'm in!!  I need a little "junk in the trunk" so I've been looking foward to this challenge - bring on the squats!

y'all can borrow some of my ghetto booty... dunno if it's from running or riding, but i gots me enough junk in the trunk to open a thrift store.

seriously, love my butt, but it's not in proportion to the rest of me!

Yes, saroful!  Me too!!  Except I don't run.  Or ride.  I just have a huge behind. 

Count me in! 

gotcha all! Any ideas on how to measure? Should we measure all three areas?

I'm in! This sounds perfect for me! Yeah... I don't know much about how to measure though. I'll need some help with that.

Gotcha Waterpolojunkie.

Following Slappys guidelines for the ab challenge, add 10 minutes of exercise to your daily routine. Do this six days per week with day 1 & 3 focusing on butt, 2 & 4 Focusing on thighs and days 3 & 6 focusing on hips. Day seven is for rest.

What's a backyard? What's yardwork?  HUH???

;-)

*wiggles her backyard at neeners* see... needs some work huh?

ME ME ME Count me in!!

I am in! I need that  badonkadonk LOL

LMAO @ Slappy...  Badonkadonk....

Hee hee hee

Y'all, seriously. My a$$ is so expansive, it is indeed a backyard!! thank goodness that is where I'm losing inches! Count me in!!

I'm thinking about measuing the largest part of my thighs (YIKES!)  And all the way around the largest part of my butt (DOUBLE YIKES!) 

Any other suggestions?

(I have the junk in trunk song stuck in my head now)

FYI

The May Issue of Fitness magazine has some great lower body exercises!  Focusing on hips/butt/thighs!

check it out!

I am in...I have cut our yard twice now as of today!!  Now it is time to weed eat and plants flowers!!!  But going to wait to plant flowers until after mother's day to be safe from frost, but still need to pull weeds etc...We have a huge yard so it takes me a long time.

Add me to the list girls.. I am in...

I'll do it!

LOL Jamster now thats taking the challenge literal.

Lynn, Cyndya, Sparkles added you too.
