So I know all of you have seen the infomercial for the "SHAKE WEIGHT"... right?! Yes, we all sort of laugh and think, "Hmmm, is it just me or does it look like she's ...?" RIGHT?! Ok, so you all know what I'm talking about! One of my girlfriends and I constantly made fun of the infomercial, but then one day I thought to myself, hey I wonder if that thing actually works?!
Fast forward to last week when I told her I was actually considering BUYING the shake weight. I think she thought I was kidding... I wasn't! Then, one night, I was at Target and I bbm-ed (Blackberry Messenger for those of you don't know what that is...) her "I am really tempted to buy it tonight." Well, after she made fun of me for a few minutes, I decided that regardless of the flack I would get from my friends and family, I was going to buy this thing and have HOT ARMS this summer! Yeah, whose laughing now biaaatches?!
She tells me there's no way it actually works and I said (per my usual, I love a challenge), "Well, we could always bet on it." She agreed. She has a personal trainer. I have a shake weight. Here are the terms of the bet:
- Six weeks long (measurements taken at the beginning at the end of the bet)
- Winner is the person with the greatest percentage of inches lost in the alotted time period
- Both participants must stick to the routine as planned (I can only use the shake weight for six minutes a day as directed and she cannot deviate from the normal routine that her personal trainer planned for the timeframe)
- Winner gets to pick the spa treatment of her choice at a local beauty boutique (I think we're both pretty excited for this part because it will force us to go in and do something nice for ourselves which we probably wouldn't have done otherwise!)
- Winner also gets free lunch
Have a great day!
xo, c
Id like to post a video of you useing the shakeweight, can we make that happen?
ReplyDeleteI'm on day 3 Melang and my arms are like jello... has to be doing something. Not sure how many days in a row I can watch the ridiculous robot, but whatev it's 6 min.
ReplyDeleteHere is my response to both comments.
ReplyDeleteLes -- If you come to Wisco and take the video, its on. ;)
Tara -- I'm literally writhin in pain after these workouts. I sound like such a baby, but this is true, I swear! I agree, only 6 minutes the bet is only 6 weeks long, so we'll see what kinda damage I can do! I've also heard really good things about the Jillian Michael's videos (and I've personally tried the 30 Day Shred), so get those too! They are awesome! :)
I'm sorry, one more thing, that was supposed to say, IF BO COMES TO WISCO to take the video, then its on! I heard he's a minx with a camera!
