SLENDERTONE BELT
VS FLEX BELT
Craze for
slender and toned body, is spreading like wildfire among the young and old alike. People are now interested
in equipment, that can give them best results with the least effort.
Many such
equipment have thus become popular; like the abdominal muscle toning belts, slimming gels, herbal tablets and
creams that promise spot reduction and toning of muscles.
Among these,
the abdominal Belts, which are based on the technology used in physical therapy treatment, are popular, mainly due
to their scientific base. These belts work using electric impulse.
These signals
are transferred through the gel pads to the muscles. Thus the abdominal muscles work by themselves, and get toned
and firm.
Flex Belt and
Slendertone Belts are two influential names in the fitness industry, and have gained quite a good reputation for
themselves. However, in the course of their development as a brand, they keep surpassing each other in terms of
effectiveness and user friendly attributes.
The
Flex Belt
Among the
various Abs Belts available in the market the Flex Belt has carved a special niche for itself; as a popular brand
and a product that is sought after by more and more people every day. This is not just because it delivers, but
also due to the continuous up-gradation of the product in terms of technology.
The
manufacturers of Flex Belt try to include as many goodies into their package as possible. For instance, the
rechargeable battery, extension cords for larger waists, carrying case, user manual and a lot of other valuable
free stuff.
The Belt
gives great results, and has been proven by multiple clinical trials. The Journal of Sports has published an
article on multiple clinical trials conducted, giving it credibility. It keeps up the promise of fat
reduction.
The
Slendertone Belt
Though built
to generate great results, the Slendertone belt belongs to a group of Abs Belts that are one generation behind the
newest Flex Belts. It has a lot of short-comings, in terms of design and results.
Yet, the
slendertone belt has been successful as a brand mainly due to its lower pricing, as compared to other products in
the market.
