Want some inner thigh muscles? Try some horseback riding. ^_^ Pilates was pretty severe too.

I've been horseback riding twice, via relatives who owned the horses. It was great, except that I'm sooooo allergic to them! (The horses, not the relatives.) Sigh.

I'm not, however, allergic to Pilates. I haven't done the hardcore stuff with the machines and all, but even the basic routine is tough! I want more...

Try squeezing your butt cheeks together. It works for me and I know where they are.

She's getting me to use specific muscles in different exercises. Glutes were for the ones following the thighs.

We've been so lucky in finding great deals and great people to work with--not least you and Bart for selling us Billie's amazing furniture. (The painter, who's also something of a furniture connisseur, believes the table came from Northern Europe--Poland, maybe even Finland--because of the bent wood technique. How cool is that?)
