    Oh my goodness --- no one???? That is not encouraging.

    The "pencil test" is one of the pre-workout measurements for Beachbody's Brazil Butt Lift 90-day program. If the pencil stays in place, it is because your butt does not have enough lift.

    I wonder if it is possible to pass at my age (37) --- haha. (maybe when I was 21 -- haha).

    Wait, what?? How does this work? You stick a pencil between your butt cheeks? Or on top of your butt cheeks? Or under, huh?

    I passed! Felt like a dork doing it but I passed!! :blushing:

    I do Jazzercise 5 times a week and yoga twice a week. I think that helps me with my tush.

    Good luck!

    Now, the boobs, well, I haven't passed that pencil test since my firstborn .....
