subject: Abs Toner Belt Review [print this page] The advances in exercise technology has given rise to the marketing of new products that incorporate EMS technology into their design. Most of the products are worn as belts, and from what we have learned about the technology, they show promise for toning the abdominal muscles, which can be one of the most stubborn muscle groups on our bodies to respond to strength training. This abs toner belt review will survey three products that are manufactured here in the U.S. and the U.K. Like other reviews, these abs toner belt reviews are intended to inform the consumer by comparing the advertising claims, the product quality, the price and the product guarantee, if there is one available.
The advertising for all of the belts claim to use the latest technology to give your abs, or belly a beneficial workout; some ab belt advertising even claims you can tone your buttocks, upper thighs and hips, as is the case with the VibroAction Belt that is marketed in the U. K. The technology used in that belt is claimed to produce rapid and intense muscle contractions that will vibrate the fat away. A couple of the belts that are marketed in the U.S. that we include in this abs toner belt reviews are AB Gymnic and The Flex Belt. Both are similarly advertised, yet there are some notable differences. AB Gymnic is a small belt that can only target the midsection abs whereas The Flex Belt is engineered to hug the entire abdominal region, including the oblique muscles; they are the underneath that spare tire around your waistline. The AB Gymnic has straps attached to the toning pad that are wrapped around your waistline, The Flex Belt is similar to a turban with Velcro, but it covers the midsection and lower abs of the torso. The AB Gymnic relies on microcomputer generated pulses to do the toning. The Flex Belt contains gel pads that are positioned within the belt in the strategic central abdominal muscle group and the external oblique muscles. Both manufacturers of the belts claim that you can wear the belt anywhere and anytime, and they both purport that the belt tones and firms the muscles of the abdomen. Where The Flex Belt advertising departs from the AB Gymnic is the Flex Belt uses what is known as Electric Muscle Stimulation or EMS, which is FDA cleared, and as the muscles strengthen, the electric impulse can advance as well with an intensity controller that has one hundred levels. The AB Gymnic only has six preprogrammed exercise routines and there is no mention in the advertising of the pulses increasing in intensity to continue to challenge the ab muscles as they become stronger.
The difference between the price of the ab toning belts is rather dramatic; as cheap as $4.39 and upwards to $199.00 The vast difference in the price of the belt might be explained in another abs toner belt review that you may want to access before making a final decision. Other product advertising features worth comparing whether or not the product is guaranteed, in the case of the three abs toner belts that we have looked at in this overview, the Flex Belt and the AB Gymnic belt appear to have decent guarantees.
The abs toner belts that guarantee stronger abdominal muscles are worth considering if you are interested in switching up your ab workout to improve the tone of your muscles.
