Home fitness equipment: Flatten your belly

Home fitness equipment: Flatten belly

Have you had enough of holding in your belly and hiding behind baggy clothes? These products will target and tone your stomach muscles, but for best results make sure you include cardiovascular exercise (which gets your heart pumping and lungs working, like running or cycling) in your routine as this is how you'll burn the fat around your belly faster.

Best fitness DVD:

Yogalates For Weight Loss, £5.98, from Amazon Lose weight fast!
This is a great DVD for beginners as the workouts are low-impact and safe. Do it 3 times a week to tone up and lose weight from your belly, arms, bum and legs. If you need to unwind too, this DVD is perfect. It also includes a 15-minute 'Instant Abs' routine for fast results.

Best fitness equipment:

Slendertone System Abs Female, £99.99, from Amazon
No exercise involved!
This is a bit expensive but you won't even need to get out of breath! Just sit back and get a firmer, flatter stomach in only 30 days. This clever belt sends out electrical pulses to stimulate your muscles and can be used to tone your belly, waist, bum, thighs and perk up boobs too.

Gold's Gym Abdo Glider, £34.99, from goldsgymdirect.co.uk Quick results!
This fitness product is best for toning your stomach, but it's also brilliant for toning arms and shoulders, back and bum. It's really easy to use too, just kneel on the floor, hold the handles and push away from you, then pull back towards you again.

Weider Abdominal Crunch Trainer, £23.98, from Amazon
Recommended by goodtoknow!
Stomach crunches are great for toning your belly. This piece of equipment supports your back and allows you to do a safe workout in one smooth up-and-down movement.
