Lifesaver~ I think you should still have 2 free coaching sessions even if you got it from 24 hour fitness. I would ask your trainer (the one who set it up for you).

Also, my Coach told me NEVER to switch arms - the bugg has some sort of device in it that can tell in what position your arm is in. She said it knows if you are sitting, standing, riding a bike or walking on your hands. She said when people switch arms, it has to be upside down to work on the left arm - and if it is upside down, it thinks you are walking on your hands!

However, she said if your arm gets irritated, you can move it up high or low, it doesn't have to be in the exact same spot each day.

were can I get a smaller armband from?

Did you get 2 straps in your box? I have a large strap and a medium size strap. You can buy a medium size strap from the myapex site. They don't have a size small.

Just a quick question.....I thought my trainer told me it was ok to put the bugg on my left arm as long as the button remained on the upper portion. My right arm does get really irritated after a while. Basically to the point where I want to take the thing off. Has anyone tried it on their left arm?

Its good to know we can do that (switch arms) - I am pretty sure Coach Tamala said it would skew the results. I have another coaching session next week, I will ask her again.

I found mine brand new - unopened with the digital display for $240 off of Craigslist. I only searched for 1 day when I found it.

You can wear it on the left arm as long as it is upside down. It states this on the bodybugg website.

Hey guys, I just finished my last coaching session with Coach Tamala. Kinda sad about that - I guess I will have to break down and buy some sessions when I get to a plateau.

However, I wanted to share with you what she said - It WILL skew the results if you wear it on the left arm. She is going to post the reasons on here soon. She explained them to me - something about if you wear on it on the left arm right side up, it will reverse body temp with air temp. If you wear it upside down, it believes you are walking on your hands.

She did mention if you have a digital display - it will help even out the results, but that they still will be skewed.

Hopefully she will post a more eloquent explanation on here soon.

I'll be watching for her!

In case anyone is interested, the lithium batteries really do last a LOT longer than other batteries in the BB, so even though they cost more, they're worth it.
