Slendertone Unisex Flex Abs3 Ab Toning Belt

Product Information

Since it is a unisex design, you might just be able to persuade your other-half to give it a try too! Many of us have a six-pack hidden behind a layer of body fat, and the Slendertone won’t change that particular situation.

After a few sessions you will notice the firmness of your muscles after each use and we found a real difference in definition after just a couple of weeks. Increase the level gradually and feel the sensations shifting towards sudden tight muscle contractions. The Effects of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation Training on Abdominal Strength, Endurance, and Selected Anthropometric Measures. Slendertone is another line of ab belts that promises to help you achieve a tight, toned, and flat midsection.

The most major misconception among users about a toning belt is that this equipment may help to reduce their belly fat to zero. Electrical muscle stimulation is also used by physiotherapists and in muscle rehab clinics to send electrical signals to targeted muscles. They looked at a Slendertone belt and found that it significantly improved abdominal strength and endurance. Not only does it work, it has 6 different modes with 10 levels of intensity and is one of the easiest to use belts we tested.

The claim that EMS strengthens abdominal muscles is evidence-based and comes from a 2018 study done by the International Journal of Kinesiology and Sports Science.A little more expensive than the Abs3, you may not find the extra cost worthwhile when the Abs7 offers greater convenience and even more programming. The Slendertone Abs5 is the follow up to the Abs3 and features 10 preprogrammed workouts with 130 intensity settings. And when you consider the FDA regulates the sale of these in the US, you’d think they would mention it in the product descriptions. One way to extend the useful life span of the belt is to use electrode gel, that will help to keep your gel pads soft and conductive while delivering as much of an electrical impulse to your muscles for stronger, more effective contractions. The Abs8 toning belt comes with an LCD screen, ten pre-set workout programmes and a whooping 100 intensity levels.

You can control ten belly-busting program settings with the intensity level of your choice using an easy-to-use controller. The Abs3 is a unisex belt with 99 intensity levels and the build / spec you would expect from the leading brand in ab toning. This particular belt hits more muscles but delivers a weaker muscle contraction compared to other versions.

On the other hand, active programmes are perfect for those who want to enjoy physical activity while wearing a belt. Unlike Slendertone which has regular adhesive gel pads, the Flex Belt comes with medical-grade pads.

You get a quality item, though you may need to spend a little more replacing the pads (not too frequently, though this does need to be factored in). For the purposes of this review we only focused on the main abdominal pad but we are sure the arm/leg pads would work just as well.

These electrical pulses are designed to stimulate your muscles and the contractions of the abdominal muscles can lead to greater muscle growth and definition in this area. The Slendertone Abs8 belt is super easy to wear and supports your body even while walking or jogging. Moreover, the belt is also accompanied by a 12-month warranty, batteries and the company’s service support for a year.
