Skechers Shape-ups Review

hi blog,
so i decided to go ahead and get the Skechers Shape-ups today and my first impression is that they are really comfortable sneakers that will definitely tone and tighten my legs.  i walked around the house after i got home and i started noticing a difference in how my muscles worked as i just walked normal.  after about a few hours at home just walking around like normal, doing laundry, taking the dog outside, getting the mail, taking out the trash, i noticed that my calves were working harder then they normally would either barefoot or in flip flops (like i had on earlier before i went out and bought shape-ups).   so already there was a difference.  maybe this is the placebo effect and i will have to further investigate this claim but tomorrow i am wearing them to school and walking around campus all day so that may be the test :) the sneakers are super comfortable and the little mini workouts you can do in them while you are standing still are pretty intense if you do them correctly.  the mini workouts feature rocking motions of the feet, either together or opposite movements in an alternating fashion.  the calf muscles are targeted right off the bat and i hope that i feel it in my upper leg and buttocks tomorrow walking around all day.  here are a couple of pictures of the Skechers Shape-ups :)
