abdominal toning belt

My wife just bought one of these abdominal toning belt,it should come through within few days ! She hasnt time to go to the gym due to her job and thought this could help her to tone up, have you used one ? whats your take on it?
I recently lost some weight and looking to go down to 10 to 15% body fat,would this help?
im hoping it could help me up to tone up a bit but really dont have a clue about these belts!
Any comments much appreciated !

    Is it one of the ones that is made of like neoprene? If so, i have one and a pair of shorts like it to, all it's made to do is to help with water weight, it's Squeezes your"fat" like you do to a sponge, it helps with water weight is all

    Send it back and get a refund.

    Seriously.

    If your wife wants help with her abs, she'll need to eat at a deficit to lose the excess fat. She doesn't need to go to the gym - she can spend 5 minutes a day doing planks, side planks, and maybe some mountain climbers to strengthen her core.

    C'mon folks. It's only Jan 8. Way too early to panic.

    They really only help if you put them over your mouth when presented with food that would bring you to a caloric surplus.

    My daughter bought one of those electric stim ab belts. She's desperate to try anything that doesn't require her to actually take responsibility for her eating and activities. I consider it a HUGE waste of money.

    Can your wife do flights of stairs on her lunch break? That would add up to some serious exercise.

    I guess I would word it like this....

    1) I haven't lost 100lbs because of a belt

    2) Obviously by your profile pic you have made some improvements to your health. Ask yourself, did you get looking like that because of a vibrating belt? Let me answer that for you....


    No.

    Your WIFE ordered a VIBRATING belt...hmmm...let her keep it. If it doesn't work on the abs, I'm sure she'll find other uses for it.

    Hanging leg raises, dragon flags, wood chops, Russian twists, and that little detail of getting your body fat low through diet and exercise.

    This product works just as well as Raspberry Ketones and is marketed to the same target audience.

    You cannot spot reduce abdominal fat! You can strengthen your abdominal muscles as much as you want, but you will never have a visible six pack without also having a low body fat percentage.
