I am a wrestler, will this device break if I wear it during class?

Probably. I have not been able to use mine for the past week because the plastic piece on the strap that holds the device in place broke somehow. I sit at a desk all day. Now I will have to try to find a replacement strap somewhere. I hope this helps. Good luck.

It will break if you simply wear it. The armband is worthless. I replaced it more times than I should have bothered before giving up and tossing the whole thing in a drawer.

I doubt it, but I never stress tested mine beyond just being on my arm during cardio. The elastic in the arm band does wear out with regular use, so yours might wear down a little faster.

the frame around the Core that is attached to the band is quite thin. I am a 60 year old female, who doesn't do contact sports and I broke this 2 times. Body Media replaced the first one but charged me $6. for the second.I don't think it was meant to wear during contact sports.

It might give you some trouble if you have arthritis, but not as much as the normal buckles. This one is flatter and I just pushed my full thumb onto it to open. More of a push and slide affect. The buckle is plastic, and I would agree it is not for heavy duty use. That being said, I did wear mine all the time and under jeans a lot of the time (little rougher on it I would think). It did really good for me.

Truth be told, if the machine is used properly, the belt will probably never break. It was my fault.

Not if you are an aggressive player. My daughter is an aggressive freshman player & they didn't last one week. The material tears easily & that will expose the foam inside. I say,save your money. The only decent pair we've ever bought were Nike brand knee pads.

It's a terrific little device - practically diabolical in its simplicity. The spring mechanism seems quite robust - but as an other answer says, not sure if 50+ times a day will wear it out. I love this thing.

Itll start to wear out, but for the price itll be a good time before you'll buy a replacement. I have been using it in the street and in the gym, sparingly.

this is probably not what you're looking for. I used it to train my pup to stay in the yard and not bark in his kennel, but it eventually broke. It was all I needed it for, so I don't care that its broken, I def got $20 worth of use out of it, but if you're doing professional training or want a collar that is going to be around and work for a long time, this is not the right item for you. Esp for sport training, I recommend a water proof one. they're pricey, but could save your pup from a bad shock

Per my daughter who is the user, it went off couple times during the class. She put it in her backpack pocket and maybe book squeeze it to cause it went off.

no. I advise you not to buy this piece of equipment. Locked up , sent it back, locked up again 3 days later, Used it for a wedding. Very embarrassing.

Hi. I really don't see how she could break this buckle. It is large and very secure and is located on the side of the harness which falls near the armpit of my 60 lb. pitbull mix. The is no stress placed near the buckle. This is the only harness that I have ever liked. It is so easy to use. My dog even likes wearing it!

Yes, it is like working out with a light hand weight-I had tons of curtain panels to steam so I skipped my workout. It will never break.

I wear mine on skin and it stays right wear I place it. I haven't worn it over clothing yet, so I can't speak to whether it stays in place that way or not. I have LOVED this belt, and if I had known of it 1 1/2 years sooner, I would be $1000s richer w/o having spent it in P.T., Chiro, pain management injections, etc., all of which didn't do anything to help my problem. Best wishes to you and I sincerely hope you get as much if not more relief from the belt as I did!!!!

The Shock Doctor line of supporters and cups have proven to be very comfortable for me. I use them in my MMA sparring and have so far had experienced only minimal interference in my range of movements. I would recommend to actually try several brands/styles/sizes and find what best works for you in your preferred sport. I myself went through two-strap, thong, and compression short/briefs styles of athletic supporters before I settled for this model in the Shock Doctor series. I hope this helps.

If not used properly, the cable can become jammed at the end where height adjustment of the ball is made. That's what happened to the portable trainer I have when used by my son's 13/14yr old teammates. A college hitter shouldn't have that problem. As long as contact with the ball is proper and consistent, he can get hundreds of repetitions. I also recommend not leaving it outside where the weather can cause the ball to deteriorate. Fun gift though.

yes absolutely.....It's strong enough to be over a room or two...ps - I wear it on my waist when I run. No issues! It's pretty much awesome!!!!

I wear mine to lift, so not sure. But it's so cheap why not try it. It would be more comfortable than a leather one.
