Amazon.com Product Description

Whether you're a casual exerciser, a senior, a fitness enthusiast, or someone facing physical challenges, the Slendertone System Abs Toning Belt for Men 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, patent-pending C.S.I. (Concentrated Slendertone Innervation) technology to firm, tone and strengthen your entire midsection with patented medical-grade muscle stimulation technology. 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 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Secret to the Gel Pads, January 26, 2010

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Time well spent., February 22, 2009

I purchased this piece of equipment so that I could work on my abs effectively. I am in the military, so we already have a pretty hard-core work environment. But my abs seemed to be lacking. I purchased this item mostly on a whim, just to see if it was worth its weight.
Well, after a month of operation and following the workout manual, I have found that it is pretty damn effective. Obviously as with any product, you cant be obese and throw this on expecting all your problems to be over. But if you are doing some sit ups and crunches on your own, using this before bed makes a big difference.
I will continue using this product, and recommend it to others.

5.0 out of 5 stars A definite improvement over previous model, September 21, 2008

By 

Colonel Panic (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Slendertone Men's System Abs Toning Belt (Sports)

I reviewed the previous Slendertone belt, and indicated there that I was going to try this one out. I am glad I did. The programming and intensity range of controls is vastly improved, and the recharge-ability of the device is a true plus. I have been using the unit for approximately three weeks, and it has definitely helped me to restart an exercise program after several months off due to illness. Because the controls are much less bulky, the unit is easier to wear under clothing, and much easier to exercise with while wearing. I am not quite sure why one of the reviewers is so negative on this device. Right now, I am using it an intensity of "40," and i clearly get quite an involuntary muscular workout from it. My wife has commented that she can see the involuntary reactions while the muscle stimulation is working. Granted, I lost a lot of wight while ill, and at 6'3" and 162 pounds, the belt doesn't have to reach "far" in order to stimulate my abs.

I would knock off a half star because of the proprietary connector between the recharger plug and the controller. I recently went on a trip, and I left the wall plug at my hotel. Fortunately, the battery lasted for several days after recharging, and so I had no problem waiting for the hotel to ship the plug back to me. But if I had lost it for sure, I would have been SOL. I contacted Slendertone customer support, and a week later, they still have not responded to my request for a replacement plug.
