So, according to the chart do I need to measure with or without a flexed bicep?

The 2XU website has a sizing chart for this and clearly states: "Measurements for the arm sleeves should be taken in a relaxed state at the largest girth of the bicep and the forearm. If your measurements of two different points for a garment do not correlate for one particular size, first try the size recommended by your forearm measurement." So NOT flexed. The other answer is just wrong.

You are supposed to measure around your elbow. It says in the listing what measurement corresponds to the sizes. I would guess that you need a large. Or possibly extra large.

the proper way is to visit a drug store that sells them and get measured. One suggestion.. they are cheaper here but if you get a doctor's prescription, some health care plans will pay. for the ones in the pharmacy.

Yes the chart is pretty accurate. I would recommend large. My hand is 8" as well and it is the size I bought. Fits perfectly.

Measure just below elbow point with arm straight, error on smaller size if close

In order for the scale to display more than just your weight your feet must be bare and in contact with the metal strips on the top of the scale. No shoes or socks. It figures out the muscle and fat measurements by running a small electrical current through your body. Hence the requirement for the skin on the bottom of your feet to be in contact with the two shiny metal strips. It will display your weight and then you will see a sequence of zeroes on the bottom line, and then it will display the other measurements such as percentage fat, percentage muscle and bone.

This is measured by chest circumference which would be over, not under.Thank you.StephanieThe Brace Shop

It is very hard to straighten....maybe a thinner gauge would work, but not this one.....unless you really have muscle power.

Measure the circumference of your arm right above the elbow. The sizes are listed.

Unless you have some birth defect, or are 600# it will be no problem. I am almost certain I have bigger wrists then you and they just barely need to stretch, and I forgot about it after about ten minutes

Below the elbow is where i was told to measure and that was the correct way to mesure

There are small boxes to the left of the large photo. One of the boxes has a size chart....you need to measure certain areas of our legs

I truly suggest measuring and use the guide. It worked perfect for my daughter. Good luck.

No, it is not necessary. It will help build up your arms but I am a senior and not worried about that. I use the bars for only 3% of my exercise. The other 97% I am reading while I work my legs for an hour. I like it all. Good Luck to you.

Pull the tape around your body. Put the knob into the hole in the handle. Click the button on the handle so that the tape is snug against your body. Read the number just coming out of the side opposite of where you put the knob.... It makes measuring things like your arms, by yourself, much easier.

You use a dollar bill to measure. I pretty much knew already I was a small because my arms are so thin but the dollar test confirmed it. I believe the measurement method is in their website.

I got this one before, and someone else chimed in. If you go to Tommy Copper website, I guess there is a chart there.
