| Arm bands are very
popular, but they are not ideal on all body types. This is particularly
true of any bands that have straight parallel lines. First of all there
is the problem of getting it on straight. On some arm types, this is
physically impossible, it will never look straight.
The other problem you might face later on is
that an arm band will change and distort as your weight and muscle tone
change. If you gain muscle mass or gain weight, you will no longer be
wearing a straight band-- it will widen in some areas. If you lose
weight, it will narrow in places.
Before deciding on an arm band, please look
over the following images and you will get a good idea as to whether an
arm band is right for you. You will also get some ideas on alternative
designs and placements |
