Definitely directly on the skin....the neoprene helps wick the sweat out of your pores and such, if you wear it over clothing the effects wouldn't be as effective I don't think.....

Now granted, I wouldn't recommend wearing it for long periods of time on bare skin, for fear of rashes forming...due to the sweat it's wicking away....

most definitely over a shirt, rubber will deteriorate quickly due to acidic qualities of sweat and on the reverse side it will cause rashes/ blisters for someone who does higher amounts of cardio/core workouts, on the last part, wearing a shirt underneath, will cause more heat and sweat , wich accelerates the process.

you can go either way, but this belt will make you sweat quite a bit, as it is meant to help sweat out water weight, so if you wear it over your clothes you will probably have to change them right after working out. I wear mine under my clothes and they have only gotten sweat on them once or twice.

It might help you sweat a little more but it doesn't magically make the fat melt away. This particular product is designed to be worn while working out. It helps shed excess water and heat up your mid-section so you burn more fat in that area. Hope this helps!

its meant to be worn during workouts. There's no magic way of elimintating belly fat. You still have to work out and it really only eliminates water weight cause it make's you produce more sweat in the tummy area while working out.

I put mine on as Im dressing for the gym and when I get home I take it off so total before and after the gym is like 30 minutes or so plus while im working out. I also wipe mine down with a damp wash cloth afterwards so it doesnt smell like gym "funk" afterwards!

First only wear it while working the muscle. If you're not going to exercise the stomach muscles, loose (flabby) skin could result in time. Especially so if after a baby.

I wear it the entire hour I work out. Situps/crunches are part of my routine, if they weren't I wouldn't wear it.

I was wearing mine 10 hours a day....without a problem. But have heard of people experiencing rashes, etc...from using it "too long" - so just wear it until it's no longer comfortable...

The way it works, you may notice irritation after wearing it long periods, since it keeps your body heat locked in....

Obviously, it goes without saying, if it's hurting you, causing rashes, or itching, take it off.

I wear mine until I notice that I am sweating A LOT! You don't want to keep it on too long because of sweat blisters but you should be able to tell when your ready for it to be off. Just me exercising in it for 15-30 minutes makes me sweat so much that I normally will take it off after that amount of time. It is up to you though.

It strengthens your abs if you're not used to holding them in (or flexing most of the day). It helps to balance out the strength of your back and your abs. You still have to work for it if you want that 6 pack by next summer, but this will help with any water weight on top of them.

I do not believe it is exactly bad for skin. I recommend wearing over some light garment so that the rubber will not irritate the skin. Neoprene may have some allergic reaction, plus the rubber pulls on the hairs and creates some irritation. I lost several inches with no flbby skin. It takes several days or weeks to get down significantly, and the skin is not left hanging. These belts or other toner belts can also be wrapped around the thigh or calf to help lose water weight there if necessary or to help prevent or relieve leg cramps.
