Amazon.com Product Description

Whether you're a casual exerciser, a senior, a fitness enthusiast, or someone facing physical challenges, The Slendertone Flex Abdominal Toning Belt for Men can help you build a stronger core foundation, add variety to your workouts, or enhance your training regimen. The Slendertone Flex system includes the belt, controller with four programs, three AAA batteries, three GelPads, travel pouch, and instruction manual. This belt fits waist sizes 27 to 47 inches.

Slendertone uses clinically proven, patent-pending C.S.I. (Concentrated Slendertone Innervation) technology to firm, tone and strengthen your entire midsection with patented medical-grade muscle stimulation technology. The unique construction of the Slendertone Flex features three pre-positioned, medical-grade GelPads, covering the central abdominal muscles and external obliques. Signals from the belt reach out to nerves where they are most concentrated. These nerves branch out to reach all the abdominal muscles (not just those under the pads) causing them to relax and contract naturally, exercising all the muscles at the same time.

Used regularly (as little as 30 minutes a day) in conjunction with a healthy diet and some moderate exercise, you will notice results within 8 weeks. You can wear the Slendertone Flex 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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Results But Expensive..., September 8, 2005

By 

Dmitry Kristal (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   

I'm sure the #1 question of everyone's mind is: DOES IT WORK???

Well, let me just say this: Yes and No. You have to be in shape to see those results. I am 20 pounds overweight, as I try to lose weight. However, when I look in the mirror and suck my stomach in, I see the ab muscles that I have never seen before. I am already in my 30th session and I know I will see more results as time goes on. If you are an average weight and want to see and strenghten your ab muscles, this should do the trick, because it STRENGHTENS your ab muscles, it doesn't just paint them on your stomach. So if you are 100 pounds overweight and expect to see rock-hard abs in a week, I wouldn't recommend this product. However, if you are trying to lose weight and/or already in good shape but have weak and underdeveloped abs, you may consider investing in this. How do I know this? This device sends vibration to your abs and has levels from 1 to 99, with 1 beaing weakest and 99 being the most intense. During the first few days, I couldn't handle the sensations over 50 as I felt like somebody grabbed me by my stomach and wouldn't let go, but now, I can easily handle vibrations over 85, which means my abs did become stronger than a month before!

Other things to consider: You will invest $150 into this and possible $15 per month on new pads as they slowly get stretched and deteriorate. With that type of investment, you can easily joiin a gym membership, if you think about it.

Bottom Line: A good buy if used properly but expensive considering the alternatives such as gym, where you can excersise your whole body, as Selndertone Flex just targets one part of the body.

3.0 out of 5 stars It seems to work, but had side effects with me, January 21, 2007

By 

Maynard "maynard77" (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - See all my reviews

I have mixed feelings about this device. I used it for a month, and it did seem to be firming up my abdominal muscles. I was up to level 70 out of the 100 possible. Not to be indelicate about this subject, but I had to stop using the Slendertone because strangely it was affecting my intestinal activity. I stopped using it for a few days and the problems went away, but came back when I started using it again. I've never had a problem with constipation before, and I can only think that using the Slendertone was causing it. I imagine that other body parts near the waist are also receiving the electric charges along with the abs, and that was the effect on me. I returned it under their 30 day money back guarantee and they refunded my money. The instruction manual says that nobody knows the long term effects of using this device, and I decided I would have to just work my abs the old-fashioned way.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you can commit to use it daily, it delivers results!, June 14, 2006

By 

Jeep Girl - See all my reviews

This is a fantastic product, yes it does work! Be advised that the replacement gel pads are expensive and not always easily found, and depending on how carefully you handle them will determine how many uses you get out of them. The pad placement is slightly awkward and takes some time to get just right, but once you find the right spots, you'll remember that next time and not struggle. The gel pads don't place, peel, and replace well over time, so if you put them on right the first time, they'll wear much longer. The unit is well designed, quality constructed, and has a comfortable fit. If you have the commitment to use it daily, you'll see the results it promises. The flexing/buzzing sensation is easily adjusted by the intensity, not at all hurtful. Overall, I'm thrilled with this product. You can FEEL the results no matter what your weight, but to SEE the results...you need to already to be near your target weight to begin with.
