I'm curious. Do they actually work? I keep fit in terms of walking or running on the treadmill but my arms aren't toned at all. I'm just curious to see if they actually work cause I'm seeing all the adverts on social media!

I use it.
It works to tone but imo only if you have quite a low % of body fat. It possibly does tone under fat but you won't see it. It may help to strengthen the muscles to be able to do further exercise though.

I bought it after being unwell for quite a long time and I was massively unfit. I couldn't even do the basic yoga and pilates I had been doing for years. It got my stomach muscles engaged enough to be able to do these again.

Now I use the stomach one most mornings on usually a 40 min cycle while I get ready/tidy up/ sort everyone to leave (when we used to leave the house) I dont find it painful at all

Between it and a few sessions of yoga I have a pretty flat stomach now. 2 years ago I was struggling to sit up without assistance after a long period of illness so my abdominal muscles were gone.

The arm toner works as well but is a PITA and a bit sore to use. You basically have to be still for it to work. So I never use it consistently. It was my NY resolution to restart it this year. I've still to do it. Maybe tonight.
