Well I had lost a lot of abdominal muscel strength the last 2yrs
Couldn't do sit ups and couldn't stretch out of my chair without falling out
Logic says, no nerves, loose muscel power
So I bought one and tried it
I have no electrical implants
Remember we are all differant - so this is just my experiance talking, not someone elses
For the last 10wks I have used it for a hour - 4 evenings a week
I can now do a rolling sit up as opposed to a pull me push me up on something
My posture has improved
Although the main sensation is under the pads there is some buttuck and thigh movement happening which may mean some regain of bum muscel (nothin yet though)
No I havn't developed a rolling muscular abdomen
My heart hasn't gone into a flutter
I use the cheapest hair gel instead of the expensive electrical gel pack
It's a Bodi Tek AB+Back belt from ARGOS £50
There are others but this was my choice and this my experiance to date
LOL

There are differant belts and the choice is yours
I chose a belt that covers the biggest area
If anyone does choose to try it please remember that the cost of electrolite gel is expensive and that I find that the cheapest hair gel works just as well
Maybe in 11 weeks time someone else will post their experiance

As for the spare tyre, it's still there
Due to beer and food , I expect it will always to be there
Come to think about it
If you got 2 spare tyres, you'd have to get a extension velcro belt too
Don't know if I can improve on what I've gained, let you know in another 12 wks

I don't have a huge belly, but it's getting bigger by the year. Did the belt help with your digestion/crapping?
