Is the band material strechy? When lifting weights, will it allow flexing the arm muscles?

No it does not give and take very well. It didn't even fit over my upper arm comfortably. I didn't like how it fit my phone as well as the snap (that holds your phone in) broke not even a month after purchase

I had returned it. The armband was bigger than my arm. You should measure your arm and compare it to the band's.

It seemed to be but sweetie I bought it for my nephew so not 100 percent he loves it for running if that helps.

This is not your typical workout phone band. It is more leather like material. Some parts might have a little stretch, but what I was use to. Double check to make sure it fits your phone. I couldn't use band because it didn't fit my phone, Note II.

I really like mine. I'm extremely petite and it has a way to make it really tight around my arm so the bands not flopping around. Try it out and If you don't like it Amazon has a really good return policy.

It should. The band itself is not very stretchy (but does stretch some) and fits snugly on my arm. Now, if you weigh 100lbs and/or have pencil thin arms, perhaps not.

It dose stretch slightly. But I would not really use it for resistant training.

I honestly think it can because before I bought it I hesitated whether it is made of hard or soft material. When I got it I was really happy. It does the work effectively. If you do bicep curl, you should fasten it little up close to lower part of palm, that might solve your problem. However, I bought it for some bench and shoulder press

Yes, the band is an elastic band with Velcro that you can adjust to arm size. I hope this helps.

Yes. However the band is really small, I often wear it on my forearm if I'm just power walking.

It does, for me. I use double bands on mine. When I do the reps, I feel tension on my neck. Tightens the neck muscles and skin in my case.

Yes it does stretch. As long as you don't require GPS, this unit would work just fine in the gym.

No, the arms only adjust up and down. They are nicely padded, so if you are a leaner, the arms are great for that.

I would just buy whatever is good for you. You might want to buy 2 bands and then you can use an easier and harder, as you like. There is no requirement for how difficult the band is, but you want something you can do repetitive exercises with without burning out your arms and legs right away.

No the arm band is too slim. Having the hard case on will make it too tight and it will be constantly pushing the power button and turning off the phone in the middle of a run. That's why I started taking my case off to run with it and then sweat went through the band and ruined my phone. Just don't buy it. It's horrible.

They make more feminine colored bands and even the black one isn't that obtrusive. If you don't want to wear anything on your wrist I would definitely look at the FitBit One where you can place it on undergarments under your clothes. Im pretty sure the flex has to be placed on your arm just because it is calibrated for arm movement only.

Yes,it has an adjustable strap that can be tightened to your comfort level, which helps stabilize weakness that may occur in your wrists.the sleeve is elastic and very durable.

Yes there is an elastic band that will stretch. However we were disappointed in the product because the elastic tore away from the plastic after just a few times wearing it. I would not recommend you buy this.

Yes - and no. There are instructions to put the bands over your shoulders and lean forward. It kind of hurt the tops of my shoulders. I would think it should be part of your strengthening routine but not all.
