 Powerball and Trumpet playing September 25, 2007

I bought a Powerball after having a go with my brother's.
He'd bought it for fun, but I found it such a good therapy I bought my own.
By day I'm an electrician, by night I play the trumpet / cornet and I use a computer a lot, hence over the years I've developed some mild repetitive strain injuries in my arms, especially the right fore-arm.
For years I've been just `putting up with it' as it's not usually more than a dull ache but if I've had a heavy day at work I notice my arm stiffening up, not good if I'm playing brass that evening.
I've found that if I use my Powerball when I get a moment a few times a day I can work some heat into the muscles which really loosens them up and gets rid if any aches.
I try and do about 10 minutes sustained at a moderate speed with short bursts up to full tilt, swapping arms as each one gets tired. Believe me, as the speed goes up, these things become really heavy!
What surprised me was the first time I went to band practice after using the Powerball just how much more nimble my fingers were in the running sections. I've always struggled in faster sections trying to get my fingers to go fast enough, but using the Powerball to loosen up beforehand makes quite a significant difference.
What's nice about the Pro model (apart from the funky flashing lights (mine's blue)) is the little trip computer on top so you can keep a track of how you're doing, as it can indicate speed, top speed reached, work done, and strength test, so you can keep tabs on how you're doing.
All in all, the Powerball is quite fun to use, in a similar way to a YoYo, but more importantly it really helps to condition your arm muscles. If you do anything in your daily life that involves using your arms with strength, speed or precision then you'll most probably find one of these a real help.

10 out of 10. A very good product! It has given me hours of joy so far, really addictive, my top score so far is 10380. I thought it would be easy use and work but it wasnt took a while for me to get used to the rhythem and build up speed. The light given out when u reach high speeds is just amazing, best to do it in a dark from to get the best atmosphere. The powerball, when slowing down, vibrates vigorously and forcefully in your hand, you really do have to hold on to it. I bought this product for two reasons, one because it builds the muscles in the arms and two because it looks cool and is a good way to show off to your colleagues/friends how strong you really are!
I recommend this to anyone who wishes to wipe the smiles off their boastful friends, for anyone who wants something that looks cool and to anyone wishing to build muscles in their arms.
Thank you
Hope this has helped you with any enquires that you may have. If you have any other questions email me at x_extreme_racing_x@hotmail.com i will be glad to help.

I have been using various powerballs for over two years now and I love it as much now as when I first got it. The manufacturer's description really doesn't do this product justice, although their website does. If you use this powerball at low speeds it is great for RSI and other wrist/arm injuries. At high speeds it gives an amazing workout and really builds up all the arm and shoulder muscles. The build quality is incredible (do not be tempted by inferior wannabes) and the lifetime guarantee is unbeatable. I've had to replace a small part already (due to my intensive usage!) and they sent out the part quickly, free of charge and with full fitting instructions, can't say fairer than that! It is truly addictive and put it on a table in a room full of friends and you will all soon be fighting to out do one another on high speeds and other stats that the computer on top measures. The Neon Pro is a fun take on the original theme and is perfect for us powerball addicts who want that little something extra. I could write so much more about this product, but really you've got to buy one and try for yourself, you will not regret it!
Lot of fun - really works June 14, 2007

At first this looked like a real gimmick to me - but got one as a gift and it turned out to be both great fun and a good workout.
Ideal for any sports requiring grip/wrist/forearm strength.
It takes a good bit of practice to get the most out of powerball, but once you have the gist of it, the force generated is remarkable.
