Does the Contour Abs belt work?

Does the contour abs actually work?

The biggest selling ab toning device on the market in the USA, the contour abs belt is famous because of the infomercials used to promote it. There are all sorts of claims in the infomercial, and if you've seen it you could be forgiven for thinking all you have to do is strap on this ab belt and magically your waistline will decrease, the pounds will simply melt away leaving you with amazing slim, sculpted abdominal muscles.

Unfortunately, its not just that easy!

The contour ab belt DOES 'work' in the sense that like all other electronic toning devices, it will cause your ab muscles to contract and work while you are wearing it. It can therefore help to build stronger ab muscles.

But - the contour abs belt (and no other ab belt for that matter) will NOT cause you to lose weight on its own.

To acheive the results you want, you will have to exercise and eat well to burn off the excess fat covering up your abs. Once you have done this, then and only then will you start to see the results of the ab belt you choose to buy as your ab muscles begin to show.

Is the contour abs good quality?

We consider the contour abs belt to be of poor qaulity, given its total price of around $220. It is not a particularly up to date design, and still uses batteries to power the device instead of a rechargeable power pack like its competitors.

In additon, it seems difficult to find a phone number for the company, and customer service is not the best - it can take up to 6 weeks for you to receive the contour belt after you place an order!

We feel that the Flex Belt ab toner offers much better value for money, quality, a better design and great customer service.
