Week 5- Stephen’s progress with Slendertone

I am continuing to use the toning belt, and beginning to see definition. I must admit to having a few days off due to moving house but even this does not seem to have effected my progress.

I have begun to do sit ups while the belt is working (on the odd occasion) should I feel energetic enough. This gives me an even better workout which provides the muscle burn which only comes on through using the belt at high levels (70-80 currently for me).

More progress to follow on my progress with Slendertone System Abs.

Michael combines Slendertoning, Gym and Detox altogether!

Well another week done and I now feel more in the routine and have disciplined myself into regular Slendertoning Belt sessions. This I think is the solution into getting results.

I have upped the level I am on to improve the results I achieve although I am aware that this is a marathon as apposed to a sprint and the results will come with consistent use.

This weekend I plan to detox completely, nothing bad will pass my lips, going to work hard at the Gym until I can do more and use the Slendertone Toning Belt at the same time. I plan to “feel the burn”.

I’ll let you know how this goes

Chris champions on with Slendertone System Abs

This week I took the Slendertone system abs into work with me, I used it every day apart from Wednesday. I am now doing to programmes a day, starting off with programme 5 on about 55 turning it up during the 30 min session to about 66. Then later in the day I will do programme 7 which is less intense but lasts 40 mins, I generally have the belt on 60 for this session.

I normally give you a quick run down of weight and BMI, but I can this week as the BMI machine I use at my gym is broken, so will update you next week. I hit the gym on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday this week. I have now started to up all the times and weights that I am using, which I did find very hard on Saturday and can still feel the effects today.

Over the weekend I did have a few people comment that I am looking thinner, which is good, when I told people what I am doing they were interested to find out if the belts work, after showing them where I put it and how it works there were comments about the definition that I know have compared to the beer belly I did have. There is still some work to go though. I think I need to loose about a stone before I am at my perfect weight for my height.

Stephen progress with Slendertone System Abs

I have been using the Slendertone belt for two weeks now. Day one was an interesting experience, putting on the ultra sticky pads and then strapping this to my stomach was strange but with the instructions it was very clear how to assemble the unit. One issue I did have is in the placing of the belt. When I first used the belt I was unsure what the sensation should be so I believe in the first couple of wears I had the belt slightly too low. Now I am a more regular user I feel more comfortable and am beginning to feel the effects.

I started on program one at 40 but after a week increased this to program 5 at 60. I felt that program1, although giving me a workout wasn’t feeling like I do following a set of sit-ups.

So far I have not noticed a massive difference although I am enjoying the feeling of a workout a day, I will keep you posted once I have completed 3 weeks.

Michael’s challenge with Slendertone System Abs

I have found that this week has been a real challenge with me Slendertone System Abs.

I’ve got to be disciplined a lot more than I have been but still found time to use it twice. Regular use will result in better, more consistent results which long term is what I am after. I am using the belt at quite a high level for which I am proud of, as someone once said “No pain, no gain”. Over the weekend it is my intention to squeeze a couple of toning belt sessions in along with the Gym and football on Sunday morning.

Will keep you post of future news next week on my slendertone toning belt journey to a trimmer me!!

Chris notices a visible difference with Slendertone System Abs

So it’s my third week into using the Slendertone System Abs and I am starting to notice a real difference in shape of my abs, definitely getting more defined as I lose weight. I used the BMI machine at the gym again, but on Sunday morning this week, my weight is now at 13st 7lb and my BMI is down to 27. Had a change in my gym routine last week due to work commitments, I went Monday Thursday and Sunday morning, with the week visits being a mix of cardio and weights, but Sunday morning was a pure cardio session.

I am now starting to use the Slendertone toning belt a bit more, generally using it everyday now, either whilst watching TV or doing things around the house. I have now upped the strength level to 66 when I used it yesterday, but have noticed there is less aching after use, maybe I am getting use to it and will have to do 2 session at a time – I will read up on this and see what they say.

Progress with Slendertone System Arms

Wow, that’s all I can say about the Slendertone Arms belt!

This product really worked hard on my arms. I could feel Slendertone System Arms belt work on my muscles…arm muscles I thought I never had! It felt like a workout type/massage. Like all their toning belts, I’ve used so far, It’s really easy to work out and the instructions are clear. They recommend you use the belt five times a week and they include a 30 day planner/diary to help manage your progress.

I have not seen any significant difference yet, but I hope by the end of Feb I can see some positive progress. Like Chris, I’m on a diet and trying to build up my fitness and lose weight. Toning is equally important for me as well, so that’s where I hope Slendertone can work its magic.

For my first time using the toning belt, I had it on for about 30 minutes on level 23. I may take it up a couple of notches and see how I go this evening.

I can’t wait to banish those bingo wings!

More later.

Slendertone System Arms and Abs…the trial begins……..

Hi all,

I can’t wait to banish those bingo wings and get rid of my spare tyres…..with my Slendertone equipment.

I’ll be joining Chris in the trialing Slendertone. I’ll be toning my tummy with Slendertone System Abs and my bingo wing (my arms that is) with Slendertone System Arms. These are common problem areas for most woman in the country, having read all the mags, forums and blogs. I’ve used the Slendertone System Abs before and it really does work but I just got lazy really after I came back from my holiday. Now I’ve got a Slendertone buddy, Chris, and possibly my friend Vicky, I can get going again!

The great thing about the Slendertone toning belts is that the main remote controller fits all the toning belt garments, so you don’t need to buy the whole package again (which is cheaper).

I start the trial this evening. Like Chris, I’ll be going to the gym about three to four time as week and I have a personal training programme in place. I’m getting married next May so its so important for me to get back into shape for the big day.

Do any of you use the Slendertone System Arms or System Abs, I’d love to hear how you have got on and if you have any hints and tips for me?

Cheers

Chris starts the Slendertone System Abs Trial for 2008

Started with the Slendertone system today whilst at work, feels a little strange putting it on, and getting a few comments from people, but think they are just interested more than anything. Still very keen to find out what this is all about and what results I can get from it.

I am in for a 40 min session at the moment, with the setting at 17. Lets see what happens.

My main reason for using the Slendertone systems is that I have been recommended it by a friend and it can fit in as part of my fitness programme. I am basically trying to loose around 2 stone in weight to help with my sailing (some of the boats I race on have a Max Crew weight), but also wanted to trim up. I use my local gym 3 or 4 times a week but have not been able to do much work on my abs, with the Slendertone system I can aid what other work I am doing in the gym.

I started back at the gym last week (7th Jan), did 3 sessions last week, 2 cardio and 1 weights.

Sam’s stomach is rock hard after using Slendertone System-Abs

Posted by Sam

At first I was really sceptical when agreeing to trial this product as I’ve heard it all before! For it to be a fair trial I decided to be dedicated to a schedule and without fail during the week at work I have used my Slendertone belt.

For the first few weeks I noticed a slight strengthening of my stomach muscles but no real visual difference. After regularly using my belt and pushing myself a bit harder with the power setting I am noticing real benefits. Firstly my stomach is rock hard! I only really noticed when talking to a friend about the belt and prodding myself in the stomach. I then realised that the hard work from the previous 2 weeks had paid off. Secondly I am starting to notice the increased definition of my stomach muscles. I have no doubt that if I carry on with my routine they will look more defined. To be honest, although my 4 week trial is over I am still carrying on!

I figure that it doesn’t take much to use the belt during work and there are real benefits so why stop? I hope to write another post after another 4 weeks and let you know how I’m getting on.
