Belt Auction

Do those electric muscle pumping belts actually work?

Hello. Does anybody know whether the advertised muscle-pumping belts that they always show on TV (you know "just sit down and relax in front of your TV while building fabulous abs") actually help you lose weight? I believe they work by sending an electric shock that contracts your muscle. Wouldn't that be kinda harmful for the heart (disrupting or something) since it is also a muscle?

1. Harmful to the brain, nerves, heart, in essence, abs are useless without vital organs.
2. No. Wish they did though. So I wouldn't have to go through all the pain, time, and money from lifting every other day.
3. I wouldn't trust one of those. Its a lot more fun and safe to jest get out and run or something!
4. No. If they actually worked do you REALLY think people would continue to workout? There are no magic bullets.
