Fitbit flex - can't wear on wrist, any ideas?

Anyone got any ideas for this one? Got a fitbit flex and am loving it so far but am not allowed to wear the wristband for karate. Safety rules will not allow it, anyone got any idea if I could put it somewhere else for karate class? I cannot fasten it to my belt as it could be caught if someone kicked/punched it.

It's not a problem if it has to sit in my bag, I just want to know how many steps I'm doing with all the kicking!

    Can you somehow find a way to secure it to your sneakers if you wear them? Or maybe to a hair tie? Sports bra? Just a few guesses, but good luck!
  • I'm sure she is barefoot for karate... As long as its "on your person" the sensor will track. Honestly, I would slip it around a bra strap and clasp it. Probably not the most sanitary (or best) idea ever--but it's nothing that a Clorox wipe won't fix! Good luck on your journey!
