Okay, so I've been using this BLASET ABS Stimulator for about a month now, and I gotta say - it's actually pretty legit! At first, I was like 'yeah right, another gimmick,' but my abs are definitely feeling tighter.
The setup was super easy - just charge it up (pro tip: do this BEFORE first use), slap on the sticky pads (took me one failed attempt to figure out the plastic protectors lol), and pick your intensity level. I started at level 8 and worked my way up to 12.
What I love most is that I can wear it while binge-watching Netflix or scrolling through my phone. The vibrations feel like tiny muscle contractions - not painful but you KNOW it's working. After two weeks, I could already feel a difference when doing regular ab workouts.
The extra pads are clutch because the stickiness does wear off after a while. And yeah, sometimes you gotta adjust the placement to get good contact, but once you figure that out it's smooth sailing.
Only downside? The snaps can be finicky - had one get stuck on the pad. But customer service helped me out with that quickly.
For the price? Way better than those crazy expensive EMS machines at the gym. If you're consistent with it (I do 15 mins morning and night), you WILL see results. Just don't expect six-pack abs without putting in some regular workout time too!
