This ab-toning belt promises a sleek, defined midsection — and it's 45% off

You've probably seen ab-toning belts — they've been around for a while. They use electric stimulation to tone muscles so it doesn't feel like a regular workout. Typically, unbelievably, they're priced as high as big-ticket exercise equipment like treadmills and stair climbers. That's why we're excited to tell you about this deal on the Abflex Ab Toning Belt. Right now you can score it for just $43 (was $79) — a small price to pay for a six-pack!

The Abflex Ab Toning Belt is simple to use: You just apply the water-based conductive gel to your mid-section, snap the belt into place and select your intensity level, with the controller. Electric impulses from the belt glide over your abdominals, stimulating muscles to contract and relax — essentially mimicking the movements muscles would make while you're doing crunches. But you're not doing crunches. You're just sitting there watching TV or reading or texting a friend.

For optimal results, the manufacturers recommend at least 30 minutes a day of use. The Abflex Ab Toning Belt comes with a travel case, so you can take it with you on vacation and keep the components organized at home.

Do this alongside your regular fitness regimen

Though it has potential to significantly reduce the amount of time spent at the gym, the Abflex Ab Toning Belt is not supposed to replace traditional exercise. It's a supplement to eating right and staying physically active.

One five-star reviewer says: "I got a lot more than I expected. My abs were pretty much hidden by a small layer of stomach fat. Within a few days of use, everyday for at least four hours, I really saw results. I noticed weight loss in stomach area and some toning coming in. This will certainly take a while for the results I desire but, once again, it's definitely worth the fifty bucks!!!!" Make that $43.

Another happy shopper reports: "NO belt in the market is going to give you a flat stomach or six-pack abs without an actual workout and good nutrition. This belt will definitely help you tone out your stomach with proper workout."
