Slendertone Unisex System Abs Toning Belt Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I know the way these products are advertised make you think that they will make a fat person thin, but they don't. It gave good ab definition, but left the layer of fat until i worked out. It did speed up the process giving better and quicker ab results than I normally do when I only work out after a good winter hibernation. Before I had a little roll by my lower abs that I could never get rid off and now it's gone. It didn't happen overnight, been using it regularly for the past 2 months. Really saw results after 3-4 weeks, but started working out daily after the second week of owning. Ab workouts also felt easier.
Other info you should know that I couldn't find much info on before buying... The gel pads (I found) do have to be replaced every 35-40 uses. It also really helps to shave the abdominal area where you are using the pads as it improves pad life and effectiveness. I remember someone saying that the charger plug is flimsy; I didn't find it to be flimsy at all. It uses a SATA type connector that you would find on a computer or hard drive.
I would like to find out from anyone if the connector works on the bicep tricep attatchment.

Whether you're a casual exerciser, a senior, a fitness enthusiast, or someone facing physical challenges, the Slendertone System Abs Toning Belt (unisex) can help you build a stronger core foundation. Simply follow the 30-day toning plan for 30 minutes, five times a week to develop your abdominal strength, muscle mass, and power. Discreet, comfortable and easy to use, the Slendertone System slimline belt enables you to build power abs anytime--at home, while working at the office, out the garden, etc.
The rechargeable, handheld System Controller plugs into the toning belt and displays information on toning programs, time and intensity all in the palm of your hand. It features seven toning programs, up to 99 intensity levels, and warm-up and cool-down phases. It's backed by a two-year warranty.
Slendertone uses clinically proven Electronic Muscle Stimulation (EMS) technology to firm, tone and strengthen your entire midsection. Signals are sent between the pads, engaging the nerves that control your muscles and causing them to contract naturally. It targets not just the muscles you can see, but also the muscles that are more difficult to reach with conventional exercise. The rectus abdominis (abs), obliques (which shape the waist) and the transversus abdominis are all activated. This last is the deepest of the abdominal muscles and wraps around the abdomen like a corset. It is essential for stability in the lower back region and is very difficult to reach with conventional exercise.
Used regularly (as little as 30 minutes a day) in conjunction with a healthy diet and some moderate exercise, you will notice results within four weeks. You can wear the Slendertone System belt when you just don't have time in your hectic schedule to hit the gym or go for a run, or wear it during your workout for added emphasis.

Slendertone Women's Flex Abdominal Toning System Belt Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have owned this belt for about 2 months now...i had an "ab belt" in high school and it only pulsed a lil...but this is the real deal....after ya reach like 15-20 on the intensity(that goes to 100) you can actually feel the muscles contract. The package says to use it for 30 min a day....but i find it so easy and comfertable i use it at least 80min a day.
I have gone from a generally height/weight prop, with little definition....tonow i can actually see where my stomache actually "cuts" inwards....it looks so good....and all i do is watch my food intake(no junk)
As for a complaint in a review below...
1) i have never had a problem with batteries......same batteries for over two months...used everyday for at least 80min
2) The pads....i have found that if you make sure to properly place them, yes the stickyness wears off after about 30 uses...but that is only used to hold in place....THE BELT IS VELCRO!!!!!!!!! no need to always be sticky.....i just use a water base lube to keep the contact uniform across the pads....works like new pads.....never had a problem
p.s. its so easy to use i try to wear it whenever i am on my computer...matter of fact...its on right now :)I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Slendertone Flex Pro Abdominal Muscle Toner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As a lifetime athlete who in recent years has gotten too busy for doing sports every day as I have in the past, this is a good addition to my various methods of dealing with the change in lifestyle.
I used to go cycling every day and do other outdoor sports on occassion, but my move to NYC five years ago and into corporate America has turned me into your typical weekend warrior. Just as the atrophy of office life was what first turned me into a serious athlete when I was 20, I am inspired at 41 to once again try new things to keep myself in shape--and enjoying it. Most recently these new things include an indoor trainer that I can use with my roadbike to pedal out the miles on weekday evenings, and this belt to work those muscles that cycling does not.
No real CON, but a few points I want to make:
I'm actually taking a star away for the instructions; you pretty much have to figure out how you want to incorporate this thing into your physical training on your own. For the price, they could include an adaquate training guide written by an expert. Perhaps someone at Amazon could suggest a relevant book.
The lack of adaquate instructions caused me to do the couch potato mistake of using the belt while slouched on the sofa in front of the TV and the uneven training gave me a bit of back pain for a week. It wasn't a big deal though.
Perhaps coincidental, but I started pooping like a newborn when I started using this belt.
You should be careful not to overdue it at first unless you already are used to working your abdominal muscles on a regular basis. The suggested levels and use times are a pretty good guide--just don't exceed them.
I was blown away by how much power three AA batteries were able to put out, but maybe it really doesn't take that much power. In any case, the power is more than adaquate.
DO NOT attempt to move the belt while it's turned on because you will literally be in for a shock. It's amazingly strong when the current goes through your fingertips.
BOTTOM LINE: This belt is very effective. My only caviat is that you should look for some kind of guide as to how to use it for maximum effectiveness and without causing yourself undue discomfort or pain.

Slendertone Flex Pro Arms Muscle Training System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased this product a few days ago and used it for the first time two days ago. I am a long time fan/user of electronic muscle stim as a supplement to my regular workouts, and this product made my arms incredibly sore in the way that lets me know the muscles received a great stimulation. I would recommend this product to anyone looking to add to their routine. A recent article in the Wall Street journal talked about how stim will NOT make you toned but it will make your muscles stronger. I use this product along with a regular gym routine to train my bi's and tri's.
EDIT - April 2010 - have had this product for 4 months now and wanted to amend my review. The little metal clips where the power pack attaches to the arm unit are a bit flimsy. Mine have come out about 3 times and I was lucky enough to find them and put them back into their sockets. I had to use pliers to force it back in. For a $100 item this should not be the case, I still use it and it works - but I would change my review to 4 stars based on this annoyance.

I have a flex belt with an attached battery unit - now I have to buy the other slendertone belt with the appropriate controller. Amazon should have stated this in the product description.

Slendertone Men's System Abs Toning Belt Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you notice almost all of the negative reviews for these type products are from people who have NOT used the product. I am am exercise physiologist and I know the products work - as long as your expectations are reasonable. They will strengthen your abdominal muscles and obliques - they will NOT trim the fat from your waist.
A single charge of the batteries lasts for 20-30 sessions. In three months of use 5 days a week, I have charges mine 3 times.
The stimulation is intense at high levels. The thicker your abdominal fat pad the lower the intensity of the stimulation will be for you. I am currently out of shape and have about a 1" abdominal fat pad - 75 is pretty intense.
SECRET - The gel pads do wear out in about one month - but, if you will do the following they will last at least three months and still be in good shape. Make sure you put the plastic covers back on the pads immediately after use. Before each use, wet your fingers with warm water and wet the gel surface - this will maintain the water level in the gel for months of use.
Use the belt. It will not work on the shelf. It takes at least 30-60 days to begin to see (feel) the results. If you use it the abs will come.
If you really want to SEE the newly developing abs, you MUST loose the fat. Stick to a healthy diet with portion control.
My only complaint is with the connection between the control unit and the belt. It is flimsy and I expect it to break too soon. I often get screen error I think are related to this connection. But if I firm up the connection and restart the unit it works like new.

Slendertone Replacement Gel Pads for Flex Abdominal and Gymbody Belts (3 Pads) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before replacing the plastic covers, clean the facing side carefully with Windex and tissue to remove the skin oils easily seen as residue. Clean the covers EVERY time before storage then carefully centering them on pads and squeezing away all air bubbles, along edges in particular.
Mist the pads with good atomizer's water spray whenever pads start losing tackiness. Pads should look glossy when dry with tack, never dull and no stickiness.
If dull and/or covered with lint showing, spray heavily with water and drag lint balls off pad with fingertip, then let dry until again tacky.
With care, pads WILL last for months and months and easily +50 sessions following EACH tip.
It's best starting out with new pads and maintaining them rather than rescuing pads already dull and unsticky.
The KEY is pristine clean plastic covers draw skin oils away from pad onto their surface during storage between uses. That and not letting air gaps dry out edges by pressing them down before stored.
Also, fold up belt pad over pad to keep covers from peeling away stored. Walmart has 4oz travel spray bottles with the ideal micro-fine mist as water should be applied to pads, for 50 cents. As LITTLE water as possible, never drenched unless trying to remove debris.
There's nothing to the pads causing failure after 10 uses besides accumulating oils and particles layering over gel surface just below. Even one cycle of clean cover and storage will reveal how much stickiness-destroying grease transferred OFF gel ONTO plastic ready to Windex (works better than anything else) dissolve. The migration and oil/water separation happens during storage. Its the clean plastic that draws the skin oils towards it. When plastic film is soiled reapplied, the skin oils seem to sink into gel instead, starting the degradation cycle. When gel pads remain glossy and tacky peeling plastic off after storage at least a day later, long service life results. The large center gel pad needs more focus than side pads.
The more attention, the greater the benefit. My current pad set has over 100 40 minute sessions, and barely lost as-new pad performance still running. Four pad sets lasted over one year, including discovering and refining these secrets never described before now.
With Duracell's for power, Slendertone usage costs now are redefined. Instead of $1 supplies cost per session, slashed to a fraction. For me, substantial savings. I keep a travel bottle of water and Windex with belt storage bag making maintenance a few seconds routine and pad set replacement rare event.
The consistency of session intensity levels turned the belt from gadget to an exercise machine probably reason still used at all. I doubt hundreds of sessions even possible with ordering typical pad sets killing desire first.
This technique requires skin free of moisturizers to work and sweat-free sessions. I find best results lying still during sessions anyways. Walking around with gel pads pulling away as result will remain costly short life-cycles. I suggest ordering a second belt (around $20) and recycling old pads for such uses. EMS stimulation and multi-tasking exercise only sells more pads. EMS stim gel pads in clinical use require no movement at all. Even the very best Axelgaard peel off otherwise. Slendertone's gel pads (also made by Axelgaard) are incredible quality medical-grade and far more rugged given the chance.
Comments after adopting this method long enough to see results promised welcome. This review originates at Amazon.com while linked to across web. Only comments can add here.
Let's elevate Slendertone discussion such great product deserves. Some of us get phenomenal results, but don't bother with feedback unless voicing complaints. The effect is highly biased towards only those to read anywhere. A real shame decisions made by.
