Amazon.com Product Description
Get the strong, toned, firm upper body you've always wanted with the Slendertone Fortex upper body resistance trainer. Designed to deliver real results in just four exercises per day four times a week, the Fortex is a breeze to use, with specialized sensors and advance personal training software that continually challenge your muscles to higher levels of performance. The Fortex's revolutionary air-based strength training system lets you exercise nine main upper body muscle groups, with a focus on the shoulders, upper back, chest, and arms. Once the Fortex has assessed your strength, the unit develops a custom training program just for you, then guides you through each training session, challenging your muscles at each level and motivating you to train at your optimum level for better results. You can even customize your workout with your choice of personal trainer (muscle strengthening or muscle toning), circuit trainer, or freestyle modes. The result is a toned, defined, more attractive upper body in just a few minutes per day. The Fortex is clinically proven to increase muscle strength and definition within a few short weeks of regular use. From a group of 30 healthy men, the group that trained on Fortex (the others performed either conventional weight training or did no weight training at all) showed the most significant improvements in upper body muscle performance, strength, and definition. 100 percent of the men who trained with Fortex demonstrated an improved body shape after eight weeks, along with stronger biceps than the group that used regular weights. The Fortex system is so efficient that users will enjoy results while working out just five minutes per day. Best of all, the trainer combines the exercises from five pieces of gym equipment into a single piece of training equipment, so you needn't buy a bunch of additional weights to develop a comprehensive workout routine. The Fortex system includes everything you need to get started right away, including the resistance unit, a 9-volt battery, and an instruction manual. The Fortex also carries a one-year warranty.

 Best piece of equipment I have ever purchased! July 14, 2008

This is the best piece of equipment I have ever purchased! It is definately the new age way to exercise. Those heavy weights will become a thing of the past. I have a complete home gym with weights, stair stepper, bike, treadmill etc.. My arms were starting to look bad because I was traveling alot and could not find the time to workout. I could not wear those cute little sleevless tops because of saggy arms so I bought this to take on the road and was I surprised at how quickly my muscles started to pop! Get rid of all of those bulky weights that could also do some harm and injury. You can use this anywhere...even in bed! I have purchased many items that I have returned which did not work. Actually, I liked this so much that I was getting ready to purchase another for my daughter and could not believe that there was only one review so I thought I should give it another. The reviews on Amazon have always helped me to decide on a purchase. You will not be sorry if you purchase this item and you could unload lots of weights you may presently be using. I get many of comments on how nice my arms look and it only takes a few minutes a few times a week using this piece of equipment.

I own the the Slendertone Electronic Muscle Stimulator. I saw this product on their website, for about $20 more than on Amazon. I had a gap in my workout routine between Martial Arts class, Total Gym (yes I will buy what Chuck tells me to), and the post workout use of the EMS unit.
When I use the EMS stim unit, I often will walk around the house. I wanted to get a tandem resistance routine with the EMS running. Oftentimes, if I try to get in a Total Gym workout at the same time, it is disconcerting.
I purchased this product to get upper body resistance training in while at the same time running an EMS routine. The motion is very simple. Being driven by a piston. The unit will measure how much force you apply on the reps while you perform the excercise. It also tracks and customizes a workout routine for you which is changing to suit.
One knock on the product is in the User interface. I had to read the manual twice before grasping 1) How to set the excercise the program calls for. 2) Which program I wanted to use to achieve my objective. Once past this, I became very happy with it.
