    Hi all,

    Was just wondering if anyone has any experience of those Slendertone machines for abs/arms/butt etc, do they actually work your muscles or are they just a lot of money for no results?
    Obviously I mean in combination with a suitable diet.

    No in the slightest. They are actually torture instruments in my experience. Friend lent me one years ago when I hurt my shoulder and I couldn't go to the gym. Thing was incredibly painful. Worse than a toothache pain. May have been on account of being very lean. I wasn't going to fatten myself to try it again.

    They are a lot of money for no results. The people pictured in advertisements did not get their abs using slendertone.

    You'd be wasting your money.

    You don't even get magic beans.
