Karate Kids can feel the difference with Slendertone

I can see and feel a difference now, the muscles are tighter and stronger although perhaps not as visible. I am still using the Slendertone belt and changing around the programmes and upping the level to almost the max. I am still amazed at the reaction each time the “wave” of contraction approaches and how the muscle react. I guess it does get a little addictive to experience the reaction.

I did see, briefly, the new advert on the televison the other day for Slendertone. The karate is going well and Kyusho training, having a stronger abdomen is good to fend off some of the attacks although strong muscles are not always an advantage as they can make some of the techniques more painful. The mind is a powerful tool where visualisation, colours, sounds, yin and yang, time of the day, and stances can all make a big difference to a particular technique. Only a few more weeks to our holiday in the sun and swimming /snorkeling in the Red Sea.

Salsa Chick’s progress with Slendertone Flex Max

Another week has flown by and once again I seem to be struggling with remembering to use the Flex Max. Having spoken to my husband, Karate Kid, he says he can see it’s making a difference so that’s inspired me a bit more.

I am nevertheless using it but probably 5 days out of 7 (which is the recommendation by Slendertone), but before I was trying to use it every day!

I’m enjoying the pain (it feels like your stomach is being scrunched/pulled-in from the inside) using Programme 4 at max intensity (99). In fact one day I couldn’t even bear it at that intensity and had to drop it down. I still find it fascinating that it feels so much stronger when you’re sitting as opposed to standing. Anyone know why that is?

So, here’s to carrying on and hopefully seeing the difference by the time I get to week 8!
