4.0 out of 5 stars
Works,
By Colonel Panic (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SlenderTone GymBody Abdominal Toner (Misc.)
I was skeptical when I decided to try this product, but yes, it works. Read on, only if you're willing to take a little bit more medical detail than you might like. I ordered the unit when I weighed about 195. I was 52, and 6'3", so not overweight, but not fat-less either. I exercised fairly regularly, 3-4 times a week, including 50 crunches, and a number of other abdominal exercises, along with light weights. I used the Slendertone for a few months, and then learned I had cancer. About a month after the diagnosis, I had to have a stomach tube or PEG implanted for feeding, at the same time I had my port installed for chemo. This is normally a one-hour general anesthesia procedure. Three hours later, they got done. Even under general, I distinctly recall being "hammered" on and hearing my surgeon yell at me to relax. Later, my wife told me that my surgeon said to her: "Your husband has the ab muscles of a 20 year old." All due to the Slendertone? Probably not, but I know it helped. As soon as I got my PEG removed two weeks ago, I started using it again. I dropped 35 pounds during treatment, and don't have anywhere near the energy I used to have [but I will get it back], but the Slendertone I can start using right away, even though my exercise routine is still very light. And I'll admit that the electrical sensations actually feel okay.
I saw there is a new Flex Belt out, and although the website is unclear, it appears to be a Slendertone product, retail priced at 199. It uses a rechargeable battery pack [definite improvement] with finer and wider ranging control [another], and the stim unit on the front is less bulky [biggest current drawback]. It claims to be the first FDA-approved class II medical devices for EMS muscle stimulation. Based on my experience so far, I just may have to try it.

Very useful,
By Artist's Guild "The Art Student" (Philadelphia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: SlenderTone GymBody Abdominal Toner (Misc.)
Esp. with moderate exercise and a good diet. The cost of replacement pads is the main drawback. Sort of like buying replacement ink cartridges for your printer. A good med. supply store can help you get substitutes to trim and replace at a fraction of the cost.
