Electric Muscle Stimulator -
Butterfly Abs
Are you still in the market for trying something to one your abs WITHOUT working out? From my previous post (Tummy Tuck Belt) the majority of "get fit with no work" items just simply don't work,
but this product "Butterfly Abs" may force me to eat my words, because this thing is pretty neat!
Electric Muscle Stimulator
Butterfly Abs is one of the newest electric muscle stimulators on the market which promises to tone your abs WITHOUT working out.If you haven't seen it before, take a look at this quick video commercial which shows Butterfly Abs up close and personal.
So How Could This Possibly Work?
Electric Muscle Stimulator (EMS) have been around for quite a long time. They are used frequently by chiropractors and sports trainers to force muscles that haven't been used in a while or aren't used enough, to revive and get back to work. When you place an Electric Muscle Stimulator on an area of the body, the pulses that it emits, will force all the muscles in that area to contract and expand. (The same action that occurs when you are working out) This not only revives non active muscles, but if used on a regular basis, it can tone and firm an area of the body.Pretty neat!
This newest EMS system, "Butterfly Abs" does exactly the same thing, but is approved for use at home.

How Often Can You Use Butterfly Abs?
If your like me, you may be thinking, "well I'll just use it all day everyday and will be tone really fast" but hold up! It is recommended that you use it at least once a day to achieve maximum results, but you should allow your muscles to rest for 5 to 6 hours between each use, so don't put it on and let run all day long. lol
