Slendertone Flex Max Unisex Toning Belt

If you don't have time to read the whole review then just read the last 2 words of this article, and then buy it.

THIS BELT WORKS, but is probably best suited to those who don't carry too much weight around their midriff. This belt does not get rid of fat, and is not a miracle ab builder, but it definitely works if you want it too. I got this six weeks ago, and used it three times a day, most days, and soon felt a stronger core. I started noticing that my abs felt tense throughout the day. The good thing with this is that as soon as you notice a slight change, then you assume it works and use it more, creating a positive feedback loop.

There are a few conditions if you want a six pack though-

You need to include it as part of a balanced fitness routine, which include core workouts and crunches. The belt will condition your abs to built, but that's no good if they hide behind a layer of insulation. Include cardio in your workout for a cut look, and you should notice a good 4-pack emerge, and eventually a 6pack if you stick to a healthy diet, and don't drink too much beer!

In the May 07 edition of "Men's Fitness" they tested this, among other "wonder products", and this was the only product that got a 4/5 rating, and was said to actually work. You can wear it while watching TV, and as long as you've got it on a setting that makes you wince each time it vibratse then you'll be getting a good workout.

For those who want to know what it feels like-I would describe it as a tingly effect that builds and spreads throughout your abs, building to a peak, and then stopping for a few seconds to allow your muscles to relax. Down side are that it is expensive, and the pads ain't too cheap either. Also, now I have good abs, I don't use this so much, preferring to do sit ups instead, but this product definitely gave me the momentous to start my new exercise regime. Great Product.

I have now used my slendertone flex max male for 6 weeks and now want to write my review everywhere. Now the main things you want to know are. .......
1. Does it give you a perfect 6 pack like you see on the box, answer NO ! However it does give you definition and I do believe if I kept using it for another 12 weeks it would nearly be there like the box.
2. Does it make your ABS strong, answer YES ! I have used it every day expect Saturday and Sunday as I have read you should have two rest days from it a week. My ABS do feel stronger and they soiled on the sides.
3. Does it hurt, answer NO it tingles a bit and sometimes feels odd, however it does not hurt it only feels like the workout pain you get from sit ups.
4. How often do the pads need replacing, Answer not that often if you use it every day I believe once a month should do it. ( Pad are cheaper on EBAY and in BOOTS stores )
I hope that helps, I do not regret buying it at all; I do think the product is amazing and will work but not in 6 weeks. If you are a fit person I would definitely say buy the strongest pro max whatever its called, because I can already hit my top intense thing on my pro max.

You know, people get caught up in the quest of vanity. There are many reviews here that state that this product maybe doesn't do everything for you but let me tell you about my experiences with it... I bought this purely on a whim, that whim being that I was always enamoured by the adverts I saw whilst perusing the late night shopping channels as a child, predominately the Family Quiz Channel (or Challenge, as it is now known) after a healthy bought of Richard O'Briens Crystal Maze. I always thought "Hey, this seems like a great product. If they can give you washboard abs like this then why does everyone not simply use this instead of exercise..." I was a child. I could not see the benefits of a healthy body and knew very little of the adult world of chasing after buses for work that were perplexingly early (oft coming in-between the allotted times that were given; although the state of english transportation is another yarn far too long to ponder about here). Anyway I digress; I was eager to purchase this product for the majestic price of £49.99 and see if my childhood innocence could hold up to the ideals of telemarketing's finest... I clicked the button and lo' it was on it's way to me using the fabled Super Saver Delivery. I waited the allotted time and it turned up... despite a kerfuffle at the local postal office; needless to say like a young Link I held it above my head in pleasure. Now, about my current fitness. I am not a fat man, do not get me wrong. I hang out in places that I do not like (not in a way in which you'd find me at a nearby Iceland) but in general my body is not too displeasing - Often being described as Rolf Harris in his finer years. I tried the belt. It's a tad sticky and if you are slightly 'Hang-y' you can see the belt pull away at the flab when you remove it... just a hint and what you or I should be looking to rid ourselves of. But yes, the belt is a strange contraption. it feels sort of akin to getting a stomach massage off of an over-amorous caterpillar but needless to say it is a odd sensation at best. I enjoyed it for a while and being the sadist that I am quickly maxed out the power level to over 9000... The product works well and needless to say I found my life improving in ways I could not imagine. I began waking earlier to use the belt. I was more alert I could feel the presence of those around me, constantly seeing if they had noticed this body of an adonis forming before them. I was kinder. More upbeat. The belt you could say does more than it says on the tin. I have been in a mood of grandeur since obtaining this belt. I mean come on. Feeling better about yourself has always been man's goal and finally I can do it without using my lightening fast wit and sarcasm to put underlings in their place. Just the other day in fact a mere mortal pushed in front of me in the Self Service line at the local Sainsbury's and in surprise to myself, I uttered not a word and instead happily let him forward in his tireless quest to buy a pineapple and lube (although I know not what he planned to do with the aforementioned items). And this is when I found out the true power of the belt. You see, it has been mentioned in previous reviews that this is not a "fix-all" belt. If you are flabby prepare for that to not change but know this; Underneath that layer of flab, that shall almost indefinitely stay that way until your dietary habits change, there are two things... Abs of steel... and a heart of gold. I'm not sure which one to attribute to the belt itself but remember for some self image is everything... for me, at least, it is something to be proud of... finally as I stuff my face with Camembert I can rest assured this god-like belt has given me maybe not the power of a muscular physique but what is there is being held in just a tad better than before and for me... This product was worth every penny. I give it a rating of Three Thumbs Up. Good work and goodnight SlenderTone. And remember - You stay classy San Diego.
