      I just discretely did it with a pen at work, and I passed! I'm positive I wouldn't have passed in January though! Thank you, squats, lunges, and treadclimber!

      Has anyone tried the "pencil test"? Where you see if your *kitten* cheek can hold up a pencil?? I failed....pencil stayed in place. Give me hope ladies......is it possible to pass this test?? It's my new goal....haha :)

      Oh wow, I wouldn't make this a new goal... Everyone's body is shaped differently, with fat or without. I think it depends on genes. I've seen some thin girls with a crease there and I don't have one. Might have been a gimmick to get you interested in their expensive butt-lift workout.

      My butt and boobs can pass it, but not my gut!

      Now I feel really depressed! (LOL!)
      My butt, boobs AND gut all fail!
      (I'm twice as old as some of you, but I am not going to allow that to be an acceptable excuse!)

      We can do it, Ladies!

      I sooooooo knew exactly what this was about from the title! LOL that has always been my goal being African American. LOL We love our round butts. I, however, am not 100% black so my pencil holding takes serious effort to get to and even more to maintain. My sisters on the other hand...:grumble:

      I've never of this for boobs, but I may have to give it a try even though I know I'll pass in that area.

      Yay - passed both tests. Pretty pleased with my 40yo bod.

      I have heard of the pencil test for boobs but not bottom. I shall have to go and find me a pencil :)

      I have heard this too, and I am a guy. If you place a pencil under your boob and it falls, you don't need a bra, right?

      Does anyone else come home to their loved ones and tell them what weird-*kitten* thing they read on the MFP forums that day? Yeah, this is going to be today's MFP report to the boyfriend.

      Does it have to be a wooden pencil, or does mechanical work as well?

      I failed the first few times. I recently re-took it and passed....pencil fell right to the ground.

      Holy crap just took the test, one side fell the other side stayed in place. 1 side of my *kitten* is bigger then the other :( This is to funny thank you for the laugh.

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

      hahaha @ 'between' .... what a 'look' that would be. :laugh: :laugh: :flowerforyou:

      I'm doing Brazil Butt Lift and a pencil came with it for you to do the test and they tell you how to do it. Cracked me up, LOL!

      I am sure I would fail miserably. That is definitely an area I need to target.

      Lmao!!! Too funny

      Sadly I don't own a pencil...weird huh? I'll try another day.

      Pencil test for the bum - hell no. I do have pert boobs though, which are largely gravity defying TOUCH WOOD!!! This is because I hoist them aloft in a push up bra at almost all times!!! xx

      I probably won't pass... LOL I'll find a pencil later and update. haha!

      I PASS!! easy peasey!! .. wooohooooo!! .. I tried sooo hard to make it stay there. (both sides). not a chance! .. WHOOP!

      Something finally IS right! :drinker:

      Don't be too impressed.. Now.. boobs.. thats ANOTHER story.. I could hold an ARM and it not fall out. :sad:

      but for the record.. (and if it helps anyone I LOVE squats.. and do a lot of them.

      This is the part where you tell me I did it wrong... :ohwell:

      I don't have a crease to put it in so I guess that means I pass lol.

      Failed, but just barely. It was having a hard time staying put. lol. I guess that's a good thing.

      Felt a bit weird sauntering off to the bathroom at work with a pen in my hand (no pencils around) but I passed.

      I am proud to say I pass, not bad for a 47 year old, who has worked her butt off.

      Lifting heavy, lunges, and squats - donot underestimate them

      I passed with my @ss, of course! Failed miserably with my girls. You could bury treasure in there.
