Slendertone System Abs For Men

Advantages: actually works within 2 weeks!
Disadvantages: money

...The Slendertone System Abs Belt is a very good device for getting rock hard abs. Not to sound too much like an advert here, I will tell you that the belt itself is very expensive, however if money is of no limit in buying a fitness belt, then this is the 1 to go for. I have tried many others such as the Maximuscle belts which only twitch your muscle fibres and do not actually benefit you in any way what so ever. Slendertone have been around for a while now and know what they are doing. Taking all of this into account, please remember that abs do not come through a vibrating belt. This is only help towards your perfect abs. Your diet and fitness regime must still remain healthy and active in order to prosper from this device. On a personal experience note, I have used this myself and saw result in 2 weeks. You will notice that you can...

Review of Slendertone System Abs Male Toning Belt

Slendertone System Abs Male Toning Belt

Advantages: Great quick way to get tones abs
Disadvantages: Slightly expesive

...This is a great product because it does tone your abs well and it is well worth paying the money to do it. The belt is comfortable and you can easily turn it off and on quickly. The great thing about this product is it can be worn under your normal clothes and use it all day. No one will notice. You can keep it private and you will have that body you desire in no time, without the hard work of going to a gym. I loved it when i used it and i feel happier about myself now and am glad that i used this product. I believe that if you are looking to tone your abs then i would strongly suggest you use this and it will be a lot easier than going to a gym or push ups daily....

Slendertone...What a machine!

Advantages: Easy to use, works great, many settings
Disadvantages: Slightly expensive, gel pads lose adhesive quickly

...I had my reservations about such a device like the slendertone as i have been told in the past that they do not work for everyone. This was soon changed quickly when my friend bought one and said that it was brilliant. This made me go out and buy one of which i was definately not disappointed! The device is extremely simple to use, with a heart monitor and different settings for more intensities. A simple up and down arrow is utilised for increasing the intensity which you can then find a suitable and comfortable setting for the user. The feeling at first is rather strange, something which can only be described as a slight vibration at the lower intensities until it increases to around 30 which is when you can feel it more as it contracts your abdominal muscles which is easily gotten used to after a few tries. The greatest thing about...

Slendertone GymBody Plus - My Hero!

Advantages: Comfortable, self adjustable workout intensity, cheap, lightweight, easy to use, actually works!
Disadvantages: None really, pads may wear out but are cheap to replace.

...I have always been a little overweight for my height, but i play football regularly and am fairly fit and healthy, just I like the "wrong" foods! Me and my girlfriend are off on a few holidays this year and I decided to shed a stone or two and sort my diet out. I cut down on the calories and started jogging for 30mins in the morning and evening. In a week i lost half a stone, but then got lazy again thinking if I can lose weight this quickly I can leave it till closer to the holiday! My younger brother has always been a "fitness freak" and buying little gadgets meant to improve fitness etc but I had never believed these things to work until I found his Slendertone GymBody Plus belt. It has two programmes; program 1 for beginners and program 2 for more experienced users. The instructions state to use program 1 for 2-4 weeks to build up...

Review of Slendertone Gymbody

The biggest Con since smoking was good for you

Advantages: It may have a small impact on bad backs
Disadvantages: expensive, IT WILL NOT MAKE YOU THINNER,

...a full workout. Just one 20 minute session with the System-Abs belt is the equivalent of doing 120 crunches. Quite impressive, so basically you can just sit down for 20 minutes while you watch Eastenders and it will be the same as doing 120 crunches, but without any effort? Sounds too good to be true? What else do they claim? Used for just 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week, the System-Abs belt can deliver fantastic results in just 4 weeks. For maximum results, combine it with a healthy diet and exercise regime and follow the Slendertone 6 week plan. Hang on a second, for maximum results you have to have a healthy follow an exercise regime AND follow there 6 week plan? Hmmmmm is anyone else starting to see that something is not quite right here? So what would happen if you just used the belt and didn?t have a healthy diet and you didn...

Review of Slendertone System Abs Male Toning Belt

FLAT ABS, NO EFFORT

Advantages: Requires no physical effort to tone
Disadvantages: Quite pricey!

.... Instead of exercise or crash dieting (because as long as chocolate is around, I won't ever diet), I chose to invest in the Slendertone Flex. What a machine. It is a little belt that send electical charges into your muscles. The muscles are fooled into contracting so that they exercise themselves without you having to flex them yourself. Great for lazy people. There are little pads inside this belt that you have to line up with the muscle groups you want to tone and strengthen and believe me, you'll feel the jolt when you find the right place. I figure I might as well just stick my finger in an electrical socket and get the same sensation. It is quite expensive to buy new, but my brother managed to get me mine wholesale so I reckon regular price would be about 50 pounds. There are different belts depending on what you want to...

Review of Slendertone Flex

Slendertone Flex

Advantages: small, discreet and easy to use
Disadvantages: £150 plus need to replace pads

...I bought one of these belts direct from Slendertone about 4 weeks ago. The idea was to trim up a flabby, 4 times stomach surgery belly, along with a good diet and other exercise - I hate those abtoner things. I didn't expect miracles but I needed help. £150 was a lot to pay, but hey, you've got to try it. There are two types of belt, one for men and one for women. The belt straps round your abdomen, with three gel like pads attached. A small power unit then makes the pads vibrate, and exercise those muscles. The first time felt a little uncomfortable, but now I'm used to it. Occassionally the unit beeps at me, and I need to adjust the belt to make sure that pads are attached properly. Other than that no problems. Now, for the sceptics out there - I've followed a low carb diet for 12 weeks, swum twice weekly, and used...

Firmer Abs On The Go Or Sitting Down

Advantages: Easy to use, rechargeable, can be taken anywhere.
Disadvantages: Does not come with controller

...Okay, Before i start my review i would like to say that i am reviewing the Slendertone System Abs accessoery pack, and the controls as i have looked through the Slendertone products on here are this one looks very much like the one i have. Why I Bought The Product? After Having my 3 children all by C-Section i put on quite a bit of weight With my last pregnancy, at 5'1" weighing 11 stone and a size 14 (tight fit), I thought it was about time i did some thing about it as i wanted to be healthier and change the way i looked abit. And i did lose a bit of weight but only a few pounds to start with, but the weight was not the main problem it was from where i had the 3 C-Sections and from where i had been cut and stitched so many times. I had been left with this horrid bulge / flap of loose skin on my tummy that just seemed to hang there...

Review of Slendertone FLEX BT

Instant Abs - Goodbye Flab!

Advantages: Full Abdominal Workout, Easy Storage, No Neck Strain, Easily Adjustable Resistance
Disadvantages: Seat isn't exactly the most comfortable!

...Well here we go...My first review on Ciao! With my A level exams having been hanging over my head for the last few months, I've spent a lot of time indoors revising. Great for my grades (hopefully!), but not so great for my physique, my revision aid of choice being digestive biscuits, naturally! :P Due to my Mother's home shopping network addiction, we have plenty of hardly-used items around the house, non-stick tupperware, the occasional ornament, and about four different exercise machines! Deciding it was time for a change in habit now my exams are over, I looked to check them out. The Instant Abs Machine, like many products on the the Home Shopping Network, claims to provide a full workout with minimum effort. Now as we have several of these products dotted around our house somewhere, trust me when I say this one is THE BEST...

Review of Instant Abs

Tone your stomach - not with this bit of kit!

Advantages: Good for sitting around with watching TV.
Disadvantages: Has yet to prove real muscle strength or long term results

...The slendertone system uses electrical muscle stimulation to strangely enough stimulate the muscle groups on the stomach. This it does well in the fact that the muscles are stimulated and ache after use but there is so little proof of it actually providing the long term muscle strength and tone people are craving! EMS systems have still not been proven to actually make you get those 6 pack abs that you want without actually training and eating healthily as well, I have tried the older model and this new one and am not impressed, if you have any body fat stores above 25% then the muscle tone it helps define will be next to none as it does not burn body fat at all. The basic idea is there but it lacks the substance; fantastic for the posers who only want a toned stomach for summer but real muscle strength and tone will be much...
