Better Abs With Slendertone

The last couple years my fitness and weight loss efforts have been like a Springsteen song, that is I take one step up and two steps back.  This time around I'm doing things a little differently, that is why I'm doing a fitness series.   I'm buckling down and getting serious, but I realize I can't do this on my own so I'm featuring some fitness essentials that are helping me reach my goal.

Unfortunately I'm no longer the dynamo I use to be when it comes to activity.  Even at the gym my body can no longer do all those awesome moves of my former days.  One area that has suffered as a result of my limited capacity are my abs.  Even as a kid I had problems with my back and neck and as an adult I have a really hard time doing crunches as well as the palates ab routines that I use to really love.

After doing some in depth research I found a product that really tones and firms abs without my having to hurt my back and neck in the process.  I kid you not when I say Slendertone Ab Toning Belt really does work.  For the most part Slendertone has high ratings, but I did find a few naysayers on Amazon.  Whenever I research a product I always try to use discernment when reading reviews.  What I found is that those that were giving this low ratings either had unrealistic expectations or were not using the ab belt correctly.

"Slenderone is the first ab belt toning system cleared by the FDA for toning, firming and strengthening stomach muscles"


Slendertone uses EMS technology.  EMS stands for Electric Muscle Stimulation. 




This stimulation causes the muscle to contract.  If you're familiar with isometrics you will appreciate the science behind the product and why it is truly effective.

I started using The Slendertone six weeks ago.  The funny thing is I didn't bother to read the instructions; cause I hate reading instructions, and I didn't realize that the device goes up to a 100 in intensity.  So for a good four weeks I had it set at well below 50.  Obviously you want to build up your intensity, but it wasn't until close to four weeks in that I realized my error.

Needless to say, it has only been a little over two weeks that I started using the ab belt correctly, so the fact that I'm seeing results already is staggering.


 I've reached an intensity of 85 for thirty minutes and I must warn you that It's not exactly as comfortable as claimed.  It's not painful, but I do find myself gasping during contractions.  The good news is that I can go about my business as long as I'm just sitting at the computer.  I have done light cleaning wearing this and I got to tell ya, it's extremely challenging.

During those contractions my abdominal area really tightens and it's somewhat taxing.   This is why I find it best if I'm off my feet.  It is advised to use good posture while wearing The Ab Belt

The  Belt can be used daily.  Your abs will get a varied workout due to the 7 built-in workouts. The concept behind this is called Muscle Confusion.  

This will counter muscles from becoming adept to the same routine by continually challenging them.  I have not ventured into the different workouts just yet, so for now I'm using my ab belt every other day.

Do not expect to lose weight from The Ab Belt.  Unless you're using this in conjunction with diet and exercise.  The Ab Belt will compliment your fitness endeavors.  With that said I haven't done anything different in my diet and exercise routine, but what I'm seeing is definition in my stomach and dare I say a little reduction in my obliques.

I am truly excited over the Slendertone's Toning Ab Belt and the fact that it's giving me definition back in my abs.  They're starting to look like they did when I was faithfully doing crunches and palates.

 The best thing for me is seeing results because that gives me the impetus to keep up a healthy routine.    That really is the key to success.

I would love toget my abs back again and I read that you can see great results in as little as 6 weeks!

I have been dying to try one of these out for years. I had a tinge unit when I was kid and had to use it all day to work on my back muscles because I have scoliosis (curvature of the spine) so this would work as a two for one for me. ON my back for the pain and on my abs cuz I'm 41 and so way out of shape.

I had not heard of this device before. I have lost 40 pounds but my belly is still big. I can't do crunches or most other abdominal exercises because of a neck problem. Maybe I'll get a chance to see if this would work for me.

kitblu said...

It works all the ab muscles at the same time.

I learned (1) The Flex Belt® is the first Ab Belt Toning system cleared by the FDA for Toning, Firming and Strengthening the stomach muscles. (2) The Flex Belt will stimulate all your stomach muscles causing contractions that provide you with the perfect abdominal contraction – that means your upper abs, the lower abs and even your obliques are going to get worked., and (3) I want and need the Flex Belt.

I'm very impressed with their 60 day "trial" Guarantee - that's two whole months to use and decide if the product is working for you - complemented by a full 2 Year Warrenty!

Top that off with the fact that the Flex-Belt has been approved by the FDA!
