Slendertone

Has anyone else used one of these? My oh came home last night with an abs one each. Only problem is, he already looks like the photo on the box

I'm just about at target and despite fitting a size 10 skirt/trousers I'm still a bit flabby around the middle - and my aerobics class has broken up for the summer (that's France for you!).

Just wondered if anyone else has had good results from this. They suggest a 4 week programme and we had the first session last night.

Not done Slendertone but have got the Avon equivalent for abs. It really worked on me years ago when I lost a lot of weight but I used to just put it on in the morning and keep pressing the button all day lol. I did have a firm middle after a couple of months, so I can only speak as I find and say it worked for me. Cost me a fortune in batteries lol.

Good luck

Slendertone. Are they those belts that are supposed to work your stomach muscles by vibrating against you? If so, I had one once but found it quite an uncomfortable feeling. I don't think it helps that the first time I used it I turned it up quite high and ended up feeling like I'd been punched in the gut by Frank Bruno. I was winded for several minutes. Had to have a lie down and everything.

Proceed with caution would be my advice

I used one years ago when I was a young thin 21 year old (that was in fact only 8 years ago but two kids and 4 stone on it feels like a lifetime ago!). And yes I found it worked. But i did have ok stomach muscles before i started and was also exercising properly aswell so maybe it was the combination of it all together. I imagine if i used one now it would vibrate and wobble the fat - I would need some sort of high voltage machine to reach any actual muscle!

Thanks for the comments. I did take it easy the first session. It has a built-in timetable gradually increasing the length - it's up to you to decide the level from 1-100. I'm quite fit, so got to level 50 the first session. OH despite his 6 pack could only manage 20 before nearly fainting
