The Flex Belt promises that it can contract your muscles and give you flat, toned abs while you go about your normal life. No crunches, no watching what you eat, simply put on the belt, and wear it while you’re watching TV. Butt does it live up to its promises?

Toned abs are made up of two things; the muscle size, and the body fat between the muscle and skin. (BF %). The relationship between these two factors is one of the most misunderstood fitness myths.True, when you contract your muscles enough, then tighter abs do result. However, even wearing the belt the recommended 30 minutes a day, does not give you strong enough contractions to change the BF to muscle ratio. The best way to get contractions strong enough to flatten your belly is with crunches.

Everyone wants to have a flat stomach. And we’ve been told that muscle can turn into fat and fat can turn into muscle, right? Not quite. If your stomach is made up of 3 in. of fat, then under this theory, and the resulting muscle would also have to be 3 inches. Can you picture a 3 inch ab muscle? That’s a humongous increase, (for reference to try to picture 3 inch bicep muscle.) The human body simply does not work this way. To get any muscle this big would require extreme workouts and very mindful eating. This is impossible to do with the Flex Belt’s gentle EMS contractions.

EMS stands for Electronic Muscle Stimulation. That means it uses gentle electricity to stimulate your muscles. Although this stimulation might be strong enough to strengthen the underlying muscle, it is certainly not strong enough to reduce a person’s body fat.

The only way to really get nice abs, is through the old-fashioned methods of diet and exercise. Once you start using more calories than you take in, then the fat will burn off on its own. Exercises that focus on the abs will tone them and flatten your belly.

“Cleared by the FDA” is the label you will see on this as product. The manufacturers are hoping you think this means that the product has been approved by the FDA for its stated use. However, in reality, all the FDA checked was its safety. Therefore, the product is safe, but still does not work as described.
