Have you ever seen those sexy advertisements for the kicks that help make your butt look AMAZING just by walking in them?

Oh hai there.

The shoes are called EasyTones because they’re designed to make toning the muscles in your legs and butt easier. Get it?

This is done with science, obviously. Balance ball-inspired pods with Moving Air Technology are built into the soles of the shoes, creating an unstable surface (micro-instability) that forces key muscles to work harder. You can learn more about that stuff here – it’s actually pretty cool.

I’ve been interested in toning shoes since I first learned of their existence back in 2009, and I’ve been interested in building up my booty since I first saw photos of Jessica Alba in a bikini.

For someone who spends at least an hour a day at the gym, I have a shameful lack of muscles.

In fact, if you called me a cardio junkie weakling I would (reluctantly) plead guilty as charged.

I’d love to get some more tone on my bones (who wouldn’t?) so, when I was offered a chance to test out Reebok’s EasyTone shoes and a NEW line of oh-so-fancy EasyTone APPAREL (that’s right – toning CLOTHES!), I jumped at the chance.

Literally! I did jumping jacks and cartwheels all up over King West Fitness in the gear before I interviewed Reebok trainer and super-hot fitness guru Julie Marsland.

You can see all of the dancity melee and interview here:

The threads are undeniably cute as heck, but can workout clothes actually help me tone up?

It’s too early to tell just yet – the PYTs won’t be asking me for directions to the gun show until the warm weather hits – but I did feel those ResisTone™ bands in the EasyTone pants at work around my hamstrings and quadriceps with every move during cardio kickbox class.

The shirt was pretty effective in keeping my posture tight, which was both a blessing and a curse.

I dig the “standing up straight, elongated and graceful” look, but I also like to slouch… a lot. A habit I should probably try to break, eh?

You can pick up your own Reeinspires and Reebok EasyTone Apparel at Sport Check if you live in Canada, but unfortunately for YOU my badass ninja moves cannot be purchased.

Draw from the fire within, young grasshopper! When the time for fighting evil comes, I will summon you to my dojo…

I’ve already said too much.
