Advantages: Very addictive

Disadvantages: Tricky to start

In my opinion the power ball is an addictive toy with a few slight health benefits. i have outlined the pros and cons below to allow you to decide whether its suitable for you but its best bought as a bit of fun.

Advantages:-

-The power ball will increase wrist strength and slightly tone arms (if you use it for long enough).

-It's great for rehabilitation of arm and chest muscles after injury.

-It's good for rehabilitation of elbow, wrist and shoulder joint injuries.

-You will find it very addictive and fun once you can get it to start.

Disadvantages:-

-A power ball will never give you "guns". Many people buy them for this reason but if you want bigger muscles buy a set of weights.

-Getting it started can be tedious. Stick with it though and before you know it you'll be able to start it with just a thumb flick.

-You will find a plateau point at a certain speed in the early days and it can take quite some time to gain the wrist strength and motion to get it any quicker.

-Using it in your weaker hand can be very tricky.

All in all this is an alright buy for health/strength benefits but to really enjoy it you need to be buying for the addiction factor.

Summary: Buy for the addiction factor not the health benefits
