Shock Therapy

I got the Ab stimulator belt in the mail a couple of weeks ago, and for $7 I got about a minute and a half of enjoyment out of it... HA! I'm not sure exactly what it's supposed to do, or supposed to feel like, but all it does it give you lots of little shocks in rapid succession. It doesn't really seem very controlled at all, more like two leads are arcing over your skin. It didn't make my muscles contract at all, at least not my abs.... I put it on my forearm and my hand started to tingle. I laughed and giggled at the shocks for a few seconds and then turned it off. At the higher settings it can be downright painful!

I wonder if I should try to spread the current over my skin better with some contact gel or something, but then I might just burn myself in more places!... that's right, where the two leads were left slightly burned red spots on my stomach.

It was a fun experiment, and now I have something that will send a current every second if I want to play Mr Wizard or something later.

The up shot of this whole thing is that my cat Fri has benefitted the most I think. While I only got a few minutes of enjoyment, Fri has gotten hours and hours of playtime out of the rubber band that came around the device. He so cute, he's like a dog and he'll pick it up and carry into the room I'm in and play with. He follows me around with it.
