How well do these work for holding stomach flab in place when you're exercising? I need something that will ease the "jostling stomach pain". Thanks

I lost 200 pounds and have a little extra skin in the stomach area as you can imagine. These don't really support me enough on their own I actually pair them up with another pair of compression shorts. But my main purpose is the compression for my hips so I'm not really focused on the stomach so much but that's where I get my support

They aren't compression shorts, just spandex. They don't help hold anything in place really.

I guess it depends on how much flab you have to hold in. I bought these to use for swim shorts and I think they do pretty well at holding stomach in and thighs look slimmer. Of course the top comes down over some. I bought 2x even though I wear size 18 cause I did not want them so skin tight I couldn't get them on. They work fine.

These are exactly what you want. Hold in the flab and are so comfortable you won't even know you have them on!

not at all. this is what I was expecting when I bought it, but alas, no go with these...sorry.

I used them for my chest and back routines yesterday and noticed that for the chest flies that FatGripz seems to make it more strenuous for the chest. My trainer tried it himself and he noticed that it did work harder on the chest than without them.

Yes! In fact, I go jogging and go to the gym with them as my primary. I find they stay put much easier than the traditional in ear buds everyone uses. It's also nice to leave my phone in the locker and walk freely about the gym still playing music. The only time where they started slipping off my head was when I was doing very quick ab workouts, but otherwise they are great.

I use them for ankles and wrists. The only concern is to make them a little (+ 2 small waits) heavier for your ankles, so I usually do the ankle exercises at different sessions than wrists. This way I avoid changing in the middle of exercising.Enjoy!

Yes, it's working for me. I run everyday and was looking for items to help target my midsection. I read the other customer reviews and decided to try it. The belt is extremely well made. None of the seams or velcro are coming loose, and I've been using it each day for a few months. And it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Running, when wearing the belt, my midsection begins to sweat before any other area. The belt absorbs all of the sweat, it doesn't drip or soak through. Also, it dries very quickly. I get better results wearing the Ab Belt versus not. Hope that helps.

I've tried working out with these before, they tend to fall out depending on how rigorous your exercise is. If you like the brand, then I would suggest getting the A5i Sport. They fit over the back of your ear and are nearly impossible to knock off unless the cord gets jerked. http://www.klipsch.com/image-a5i-sport-headphones

Yes I think so. Obviously you'll smush them a bit since they have a shape, but it's not uncomfortable. They're pretty flexible even though they're rounded for eye movement/ have shape to them. I sleep on my stomach sometimes too. Haven't had any issues with them. (But just note that I've only been using them a short time.)

I am sorry for the delay in answering. This stuff works but I have a hard time keeping something wrapped around my arms and thighs for it to work. Everything seems to slip off. I use it on my stomach with a wrap and that is great.

Very useful for arm strengthening. I watch TV as I spin. It's great to get your waist line back and reduce the tummy. I've lost 20 pounds since I started twisting. My husband keeps one in his office and uses it often. Highly recommend and give as gifts to your friends and family!!!

Same here, but I do notice a difference in the waistline of my pants and I'm trying to keep my abs tight every second I'm doing the work out. As long as I can see the results I don't care about feeling the "burn"!

They can't "build" stomach muscles. If you are new to working out, they can be used to incorporate many more exercises into your workout routine. If the bands help keep you active and burning calories along with a sensible diet, then you will be able to "see" your stomach muscles. If you are somewhat advanced, then you can get creative and assist in "strengthening" the abdominal and core muscles, but you must be careful with the bands.

It will help if used daily. Get an ab belt back support. They really shed the pooch and cost around 12 dollars. I wear mine all day and noticed I'm slimmer. Doing ab workout would be beneficial too. Don't rely on one thing to solve the problem.

Sorry I missed this earlier. I hope I'm not too late. I would believe so. I exercise in mine regularly. Though I am not a runner. They hold in place quite well.

Pick the correct size of ends from all the sizes they provide and they will stay put. I use them for running outside and treadmill while training for my half and full marathons. The only time they moved was when I accidentally hit the cord while wiping sweat from my face.

I have found that they slowly slip out if i am jogging. If I am just lifting they remained in place. I also make sure to wipe any sweat off after use to prevent issues.

This is a light belt designed to help hold minor hernias in place. It is not intended to help prevent them. I would not recommend using this belt for any exercise program.
