Guest guest Posted November 6, 2001 Report Share Posted November 6, 2001 My 25 y.o. daughter (who is thin by the way) bought one of those machines. She wanted her stomach muscles to be exercised and had done sit-ups to no avail. She told me after several days of using the machine she noticed a spot on her stomach that was actually bleeding. Yikes! I told her to throw away that blasted electrocution device. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
