Read they don't stay on, would they work for zumba? Want to work my arms.

I haven't had many problems with them coming off. You might have to tighten them tighter while doing Zumba

I only use them for working out. I would think you could use them for elongated periods of time but I wouldn't like to as mine are pretty tight once they are on.

I really do not think these were designed for dancing. Dancing in ski boots....? All night...? I would consider another alternative. But if you must, secure the battery packs with duct tape. Or, bring something else to wear and change into them. If I am moving my body (feet) as in dancing, cold feet is the least of my problems.

Sri, I won't recommend that. They are tight enough but are not meant for active work out.

These will probably be too large for you unless you also use some padding underneath. My wrists are over 7 inches and the tightest I can get the straps does not keep them from sliding around. However, when I use wristbands underneath my wrists don't get abraded or sweaty, and the weights are much more secure. If you don't want the additional expense or bother of getting wristbands, just cut off the elastic tops of an old pair of cotton socks and they'll work perfectly, soft and large enough to fold in half to provide plenty of absorbent padding. Good luck.

I couldn't figure out how to use them on my upper arms. However, they will definitely pull up the loose skin on the knees. There is one problem with that also; peeling the Skinnies off is painful. Perhaps getting them wet in the shower would be beneficial.

No, they are not that long. When I wear a short-sleeved top, they go up to where the sleeves end on my arms. Definitely not all the way to the shoulders, so they would not work with a sleeveless shirt/top. Generally mine stay up pretty well, although I find they are slipping more with the more I wear them & the older they get. It will also depend on what size you have, how large (and long) your arms are, and how active you are while wearing them. I have used mine hiking & bike riding and have loved them; they actually make my arms feel cooler and I love the way they protect the top of my hands in addition to my arms. I've recommended them to friends and have already purchased 3 pairs myself.

Unfortunately, I have found that these headphones work GREAT for running and intense workouts ONLY if I prop it on top of my ponytail which is precisely located to hold the headset. I don't see how they stay on someone without a lot of hair. There's no way....

It would be fine to workout in them as long as it wasn't too intense that they would not stay put. But for most things it would be ok.

I don't think so, because they have weights in the palms and it would probably be difficult to hold onto the dumbbells. These are really nice, though and stay on really well, unlike the ones where you slip only two fingers and thumb in and they flap about. These are a cut-off glove with the weights, so they really stay on securely. I love them!

It would probably depend on how wide the arms are. If they are like a dining room chair, probably not, but wider arms might work.

They would, but they're a bit on the bulky side and your wrists would get sweaty. Plus for good support you have to wrap these tight and that's not comfortable for long periods of time. I'd personally recommend tape for biking.

If you just tilt your head you will probably be OK. If your like me at the gym, and you do a lot of quick movements, they won't stay on. I don't wear mine at the gym just for that reason. They do have a high quality sound though.

Knowing what I know about them, I'd say no.....That big green one I don't even use......Actually, I use the purple one the most, I've even ordered a separate one, so I can do all kinds of exercises with both arms......That being said, these bands are the best things since sliced bread, seriously.....all you have to do is find something to loop them over and away you go.......I bought three drawer handles, screwed them to an upright stud in the garage, one low about 1' off the floor, one mounted about waist high, and one about shoulder height.......You can finally get all the movement your body wants.....I'm completely sold on them......

I don't know if they're meant to be, but the springy steel of the cuffs can be "opened up" for us with larger arms. I've found they work better a little tight, so as to stay on the arm if you release the handhold to use your hand for something. Very satisfied with mine.

Probably, depending on how far your ears are from your head. They are adjustable to a degree and since they hook over the ear they stay for the most part. I wouldn't worry so much about them falling off but just not staying flush to your ear so you may need to crank the music louder than you normally would to make up for the air cushion in between your ear and the pad of the headphone.
