Here’s an easy way to fulfill one possible New Year’s Resolution, if you haven’t forgotten them all already. MBT’s. They’re ugly. Really ugly. And expensive. But they work!! Good for your feet, back, joints, posture-and butt. Yes, just walking in these babies provides 3-4 times the workout you would get from just walking in your good-looking shoes. If you can find some nice little hills to trek up and down they work even better. The way that they force you to stand and walk works “your core” and does good deeds for your rear thighs, buttocks and even stomach muscles. My man says MBT stands for “my butt tighteners”. THAT’S an endorsement.  Now if only someone would come up with an easy painless way to get my upper arms in shape again.
