Product Features

The Flex Mini Skirt uses electronic muscle stimulation to exercise little-used muscles without effort on the part of the consumer. This technology has also been used in the medical field and by physical therapists to assist patients who are unable to exercise their muscles themselves.

The Flex Mini Skirt comes with four gel pads that are placed on the userís glutes and thighs. These pads provide electronic stimulation to the muscles in these areas. Gel pads must be replaced after 20 ñ 30 uses, which means the consumer will be purchasing a new set approximately once a month.

Conclusion

The Flex Mini Skirt website makes many interesting claims which seem to be backed by customer testimonials, technology, and clinical studies. However, access to any independent study results is unavailable. The product is marketed as a muscle toning device and makes no claims to affect long term weight loss. It does not advocate a lifestyle change in order to produce results, and for this reason should not be relied upon to burn calories or assist in actual fat reduction.
