I don't know about you, but I've always had a big problem with the abs, or, better said, their not being toned. And while this is not such a bothering issue right now, it certainly was in the past, when members of the opposite gender used to hold such a bodily feature in very high esteem.

Anyway, I'm also pretty sure that there are quite a lot of people out there faced with similar issues, and for them, the guys and girls over at Gizoo are offering the Abgymnic Muscle Toner, an electronic pulse muscle toner that's great for targeting specific areas of one's body. Safe, gentle pulses transmitted from the toning belt onto one's skin cause muscular contractions that mimic those of normal exercises like stomach crunches and riding an exercise bike, for example.

For maximum results (which, theoretically, should be quite visible in three to four weeks), the vendors recommend using the Abgymnic toning belt alongside one's normal fitness routine, which is a very good way to increase one's muscle definition even more and get extra help for problem areas like underarms, thighs, hips and tummies.

As expected, since this thing makes use of electricity (albeit at a very low level) in order to stimulate the muscles, its use is not recommended to people with serious heart conditions (especially those who have a pacemaker installed).

What's really strange about the Abgymnic Muscle Toner is the fact that, up until reaching the issue of price, everything seems to be quite fine and dandy. However, the fact that this thing sells for somewhere in the vicinity of 5 pounds sterling (just 8 US dollars) really raised some questions about its overall quality, especially since the sales package also includes a couple of other accessories, such as 2x CR2032 batteries, one tube of contact gel, a small velcro belt and a large one.
