    Sit-ups don't really do much for fat loss, so a machine that works the muscles the same way as sit-ups wouldn't either. You need to burn fat to lose inches, and you need a calorie deficit for that, and this machine isn't going to give you a calorie deficit. And unless it's working your muscles at a similar intensity to weight training, it's not going to do anything to develop your muscles either, and if it was working your muscles that hard by sending an electrical impulse into them, you'd be getting painful cramps as it would basically be sending your muscles into spasms. So at best it's the electrical impulse equivalent of ambling around your living room for a little while, which isn't going to do anything for fat loss or muscle development. At worst it's a total con.

    I'll stick to barbells, healthy eating and portion control.

    Thank u neandermagnon I guess u are correct in essence it is one and the same therefore how beneficial can it actually be. I have never heard of it myself until I came across it just now. Seemed a bit gimmicky and wondered what others thought. Appreciate ur genuine response :-) that's what I like about mfp - supportive responses :-)
