Slendertone Women's Bottom Toning

Now I'm a huge fan of EMS technology toning machines. I have used a much more intense version (which have multiple pads covering 65% of your body) of Slendertone in wellness + beauty salons (multiple times and brands) and have seen phenomenal results less than a month (seriously I looked like a Victoria Secret Model...it was a miracle). Comparing my experience in the salons' machine versus Slendertone: Slendertone is strong and serious piece of equipment. The highest intensity makes your bum REALLY work and feels like mid-intensity of EMS toners i've tried in salons, which is incredible, especially for the price you're paying.Optional advice to achieving optimal results :) :- Avoid tensing your muscles during your session (I try to avoid it most during my high intensity sessions) the more relaxed you are, the better the machine can work your muscles.- it's best to not eat or drink anything besides tea and water for 2 hours after your Slendertone session. And drink as much as you can! (Helps lymphatic drainage)It's a great machine and I'm eager to see the results in two weeks. I'll update as I go along :)

Do not order if you are a size 6!! I think if your thigh circumference is less than 19in don't bother, the shorts don't connect properly to your skin(pads are too long and don't bend around the leg) and because of that, the areas that are stuck feel an intense burning/shock feeling. This doesn't happen with my slendertone abs belt which stays connected to my skin. The pain is unbearable, when it's fully connected just feels like your muscles contracting but if you're small like me then all you get is intense shock and pain. I could not walk the day after, not because of muscle soreness but because my thighs felt they had been hit by a train from all the shock. Please please don't buy these, I've written to the seller to investigate this - they are not for size 6 at all.

The media could not be loaded.  First off I would like to state that I am already a slendertone convert; I own their abs garment and the arms garment and due to them working wonders (see other my other reviews) I decided to invest in the bottom muscle toning garment.Size/Material/In the box:========================See video. *Edit* I have made a mistake in the video where I say the shorts are a size 14. What I mean by this is that the shorts will fit a MAXIMUM size 14 even then its pushing it. Advertised on their website they state these shorts should fit from a size 6 to a size 14. You have to be a slim size 14 for these to be okay.Does it work?========================It's amazing! If you have not bought yourself a slendertone product before then I would advise you to start with the abs garment to see what it's like but if you want to tone your bottom then these shorts would definitely do the job.I initially thought that I would be able to use it on the highest program setting (4 programs) at a medium intensity of 40 (out of 99). I did this thinking that I have quite strong muscles in my bottom and the back of my legs, so I should be able to cope. The exercise as with all other garments felt slightly uncomfortable with the contracting muscles but this was normal for me; I was able to use this garment sitting down while doing work on the computer and getting up to do a few house chores. It was only the next day that I realised how powerful it was - I had sore muscles for 3 days following the exercise. It definitely gave me more than the work out I was expecting.I have only been using the garment for the past week and after my muscles recovered I already noticed the difference in my bottom muscles. I will definitely be continuing with the month plan they supplied and will update this review with my progress after a month of using it. If you have any questions please ask via the comments.==================================================================================================================================================================================================UPDATE - 30/05/2012So I have been using this for around about a month and so I thought I would update with how things are going and if I have noticed any changes.I have not noticed any big changes in the size of my bottom, but my trousers do not feel so tight as they use to so I assume I've lost a bit around my bottom. The most drastic changes I have noticed has been the massive reduction in cellulite on my bottom and the back of my thighs. The other change that is also nice is that my bottom looks perkier. Its quite difficult to describe but the only way I can describe it is that my bottom has become more defined. I certainly notice the difference and I am more willing to wear my bikini now due to my bottom not looking so bad.So even though I have not lost a trouser size, I am definitely happy with the progress I have had so far. I will definitely be continuing with it and hope that with a diet and exercise I can lose the size on it as well. But with the reduction in cellulite and the better bottom definition I am still happy with my purchase.I will again try to update maybe in another month or so too see whether I see further improvements.

I got this today, my 3 star rating is based on my first impression as it's obviously too early for results. First like many others have said, if you are above a 12-14 these won't fit you. My second gripe is the flaps don't stay closed. If I'm standing up they pop open, an until now I never really thought of my backside as overly large... The only way I can use this is sitting down, the instructions say this intensifies the feeling, I'm using 70 of 99, sitting down an it's not uncomfortable.I'll update in six weeks!

Easy to use but the higher settings do hurt and the instructions don’t adequately cover proper usuage and help you understand what level of discomfort is safe. All it talks about is setting a ‘challenging’ level. After use on a plus 50 setting my hamstrings were sore and felt bruised, I’ve modified the level but someone could hurt themselves with this product and the manufacturer should be offering more advice- like a structured programme to follow.

I haven't been using this for very long, nearly a week now and I can definitely see that it is helping to shape and tone a bit! It advises to use for at least 4-5 weeks to notice the difference so fingers crossed by this time the results will be a lot better!It is an expensive item but I say it's worth it, I like using this as you can get a bum workout whilst doing other things! I would say if you are any bigger than a size 12 then this won't fit you but I think it's really good, definitely feel it working and bum aches after!Would recommend this and if you want to use this AS WELL as exercise and healthy eating then you'll definitely see the difference..problem with some people is they think this is a short cut to the perfect figure..it's not it's just to help you on your way and I know I'd rather wear this for 30 mins than do hundreds of donkey kicks!
