How to get those perfect stick legs!

You know how I love hunts! You see the most interesting people. Both good and bad. In fact, there are some bunnies I saw that I plan on showing you in the next post or two, that were really cute! And I'd planned on showing them first, that is until I ran across this young lady!

I'd been trying to finish the St. Patty's GL Hunt, when out of the corner of my eye I saw something jumping and flapping about. I had the viewer on wireframe, to try to make it easier to find some of the boxes that had been hidden inside and under the vendor's carts (a big no no according to the rules, but done none the less) and so at first I thought I was seeing something.

So I turned wireframe off and cammed over there. And suddenly I was cranking up the quality of my viewer so that I could get the best capture of this new exercise. As you can see, it was pretty physical, going back and forth like she was.

To try to help show the action, I kept the "burning bush" in the upper left hand corner as I cropped each photo. But even doing that it just doesn't seem to do it justice.

Photos #1-5 show just how much she was going back and forth, her head rolling around as well as her arms and legs flapping in the wind.

Then came photos #6-9... It would seem that she wasn't alone. Maybe she had a coach? Someone who was timing her, or counting the number of... of... crab squats she was doing. What ever the case, this other lady showed up and said something in Japanese and suddenly the crab lady yelled "STOP" and stood up.

And what is the result of all these squats and lunges? A nice curvy body with smooth lines where they should be and a tight bottom from the lungs? Oh no! Nothing like that! No, for all this humiliation, I mean, after all, she was doing it in a CROWDED hunting ground with a ton of people watching her sweat her little butt off, and I do mean literally, as I didn't see a butt to speak of... For all this hard work and embarrassment she gets..... **drum roll**


These beautiful bird legs!

I was afraid that if she started lunging and flapping her arms again, something might just snap off or she's take flight from being so thin! Poor thing! One stiff breeze and that might be the end of her. She might just blow away in the wind! So I won't ask what's up with the black feathers stuck to her stockings. At least I think they were feathers... I couldn't find any feathers anywhere else in or on her outfit to tie in with why they would be stuck on her stockings. Maybe it had something to do with her legs.... All I know is that I'm going to stay very clear of that exercise if that's the result I'll get.
