Introduction

Abdominal workout belts have long been products that people are suspicious of.  The idea of being able to sit down, work out and still get great abs is just something that is so far outside the box that one couldn’t blame most people for not believing it.  However, The Flex Belt is different to a large enough degree that maybe people need to take a second look at just what can be gained from this type of workout aide. This flex belt review will decide the big question everyone asks: Does the flex belt really work or is it a scam?

Use electrical muscle stimulation to achieve results

The idea of electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) is one that has been around for a long time in the field of health science.  When someone undergoes horrendous muscle damage from something like a car crash and needs to rehabilitate their ability to do basic tasks like walking, EMS has been used as a major facet of the rehabilitation.  Its ability to stimulate muscle groups is well-known and it is only now that this same technology is being used to help with the sculpting and toning of muscles through a natural progression of the same stimulation that was used to get the muscles working in the first place.

EMS delivered in an impressive way

What makes The Flex Belt such a phenomenon is the fact that the delivery system is exceptional.  The belt is really just a container for pads that deliver the electrical stimulation directly to the muscles.  This stimulation causes the muscles in your stomach to contract and release, the same type of movement that would result from you doing an abdominal crunch.  The difference here is that you are not doing backbreaking exercises on the ground in order to get that muscle movement and therefore you can get the same results with a lot less pain involved.  We’re conditioned in a society that believes that there is no gain without pain, but devices like The Flex Belt seem to indicate that something else can get you the gains that you want.

Statistics to back up the theory

Theory is nice but it needs to work out in practice for a device to really be considered worthwhile.  This is exactly what happens with The Flex Belt because nearly 100% of the people that used it during the testing claimed that they would keep using it given the choice.  When asked whether they had experienced gains on the program, an astonishing 100% of the test group answered yes with a further 85% experiencing an increase in muscle strength and 45% experiencing an increase in muscle endurance.  For any exercise technique or product those results are absolutely ridiculous to the point of being unheard of.

Final Score

The Flex Belt as a workout device is certainly marketed quite well.  However, the indication seems to be that this is more because of the amazing results that it gives rather than the fact that there is some marketing genius behind it selling a poor product but making it look good.  It is at the very least worth a closer look for anyone interested in a new abdominal workout device.
