Just got my Powerball (Signature Pro Edition) today and given it a go for the first time! Anyone else got one?! I'm having to give it a rest at the mo as my arms ache too much after only a few goes!

Too late...I'm actually finding it hard to type at the mo as my arms are all shaky!

Errr whats it for???
aleco

It's supposedly "like being able to carry 50 different dumbbells in your pocket"!

It's like an exercise toy for strengthening and toning you shoulders, arms and wrists (no jokes about playing with my balls to strengthen my wrist thank you very much! ) by having a gyroscope inside which you can spin at over 16000rpm (if you can get it to go that fast without spontaneously combusting your wrist!), and so exerts a huge amount of force against your arm, something like 40lbs of pressure from something the size of a tennis ball and which weighs less than 300grams!

Aleco is a salsman for powerball... Available now from all good stores, and some rubbish ones too!!

Shame I can't resell them myself on here!

I got mine for just over £20, there's some which are as little as £16 and one which is about £60!

Mine was ordered from overclockers.co.uk, which is also one of the best and cheapest places to buy PC parts from! Only ordered it yesterday and actually arrived on time this morning!

Hmm...must strike an advertising deal with them...!

McT

Goatess £25 all in thats £2 cheaper than what aleco paid... Pm me if you want one...

My arm seriously aches today!! So I guess it must actually be doing something muscle-wise Depending on the position you hold it, and which direction you spin it, you can change the area it tones, eg pecs, forearm, biceps, etc There's even more advertising blurb than I can spew out over at powerballs.com

Well I might of dropped the one in this vid by accident... It wasn't quite the same after that!

So I upgraded to the metal powerball, and wow that's a lot harder to do higher speeds with! I've got to about 10k (or just below, need to have a look) but not beyond yet, altho been a while since I used it. I think I got to 11k on the powerball I dropped (in fact, it was doing my highest speed when that I dropped it!)

Might have another spin tonight!
