The Everlast EX2458BK Sweat Belt is purportedly used to improve muscle tone and weight loss when coupled with adequate exercise. This belt would easily slim the waist and flatten the abdominal area using a process similar to that of a sauna. The heat thus created helps people to remove excess water and toxins from the body.
People wishing to lose weight and those who are regulars are always on the lookout for ways to speed up and improve the effects of their training.
Running, walking, Pilates and even dancing, all of these activities can help a person lose weight, but if there are ways to boost their effects even more, then why not give them a try.
The sweat belt (slimming belt in the Anglo-Saxon country) is one of these possible solutions. Made by Everlast, this weight loss tool claims to increase the benefits of regular training. Sold as a very easy to use product, the slimming belt purportedly serves to improve muscle tone and weight loss when coupled with adequate exercise. The product is marketed for people who want to lose weight faster and those who want to more easily remove water from their bodies through sweating. Thus, this belt would easily slim their waist and flatten their abdominal region.
Although the sweating effect is undeniable, we have not found any studies proving the effectiveness of non-electronic slimming belts. In fact, Everlast, like all sweat belt manufacturers, does not provide any clinical proof that their product works. Only studies showing the effectiveness of
EMS type belts (electrostimulation) concerning endurance and tone abdominal muscles (with no real effects on weight loss) exist to this day. These studies have shown that EMS belts improve abdominal muscle tone, but no improvement in reducing belly fat. So there is no evidence that sweat belts suppress belly fat.
When it comes to user reviews, the slimming belt receives a lot of mixed reviews. There are a lot of happy consumers who claim to have lost a few extra pounds thanks to the product. On the other hand, there are also a lot of skeptics who claim that it is nothing more than a rubber belt.
In terms of comfort, this Everlast belt is rather well designed, its scratch system is practical especially after training and it is suitable for intense practice.
