Premium Review Powerball - Grip Trainer: SHAKE YOUR BALL (340 words)
by JJJJ - written on 14/08/08 (Very useful, 92 readings)
Rating:

The Powerball is an incredibly useful training aid. I can't fully explain how good this thing is - it's something you need to have a go at, and see for yourself. Operating the Powerball may take a bit of practice, and the technique takes a while to get used to - but it's worth it. Basically, it's a ball you hold in your hand, ...

I think everyone has covered the description, so I'll just explain my situation. I bought this product as I have very thin wrists, and have suffered from pains in my right wrist due to injury caused by lack of muscle! So I talk from experience when I say this item can real help recover from injury and help build strength back up. However if ...

Right where do we start? Ok what is a Powerball? Basically a Powerball is a gyroscopic gadget used to improve finger/hand, wrist, forearm, and even bicep strength. It can even be used to help relieve RSI and arthritic conditions. This gadget is great for both young and old people alike, you set how hard you train by ...

Premium Review portable, fun, affordable exercise gyro (186 words)

Firstly, the powerball is a hand-held gyroscope which exercises your fingers, arm and shoulder. It is fun and addictive. although the short advertisements say that they are not noisy, I found that they were, it has a deep vibrating noise that sounds like a car engine and gets louder as you spin it faster, I initially thought there was something ...

Premium Review Powerball - Grip Trainer: Brilliant for toning and sculpting muscles (281 words)
by glovework - written on 05/02/08 (Useful, 290 readings)
Rating:

The powerball is a handheld gyroscope that uses resistance to strengthen and tone muscles. As you rotate your wrist the ball inside the ball turns in the opposite direction, this creates resistance agianst the way your wrist is rotating. You must increase your speed or maintain to keep the ball moving which uses certain muscles, dependant on the ...

Premium Review Amazing little gadget (628 words)

This is a really cool gadget that you will have trouble putting down for the first few days you have it. It is a little hand held ball, that contains a gyroscope and a little lcd display, and the top of the range models have led lights that look really good and don’t need a battery because all the electricity is generated internally from the gyro. ...

Ok. I have two Powerballs, one is a Neon light up one and the other is a basic one with electronic counter. There is a reason i have two. Main reason:- the counter on the Neon logs different times to the Basic version. So for performance statistics i use the basic version, and for Flashy competitions with mates i use ...

Premium Review What a great Gadget! (555 words)

Well lets start off with what it is and how it works. Well it's a plastic casing with a gyroscope ball which can spin in all different ways. To get the gyro started you can either use the string (2 supplied) or your finger, you then hold it in your hand and you move you wrist in a circular motion, this causes the gyro to move faster and faster, ...

After randomly searching on Firebox.com just to pass the time, i saw a the word powerball at the side of the website and i just had to find out what it was. it was £24.99 but all the reviews made it sound great fun and it actually increased strength. i bought it and it came 2 days later. now when you open the box and take it out you can tell it is ...

Premium Review Brilliant Device.. but OUCH (567 words)
by groovypigthing - written on 10/05/02 (Very useful, 1813 readings)
Rating:

First of all let me explain exactly what this device is. It is essentially a plastic ball, with a gyroscope inside. This gyroscope also spins sideways, so to speak. Sound confusing? Well basically you start the gyroscope spinning, and attempt to increase the rotations per minute using your wrist actions. This is intended to increase ...

One of my workmates bought one of these into the office. I said "useless fad". He said "no it's really good and golfers use it for grip and it's got a gyroscope and everything". I wasn't convinced. And he couldn't get it to work very often. You're supposed to whip out the drawstring to give the gyro ...

Wrist action jokes aside, I'm reviewing the power ball. I got this fantastic piece of equipment using my iPoints so I didn't have to pay for it so I maybe biassed a little, but not really. Ok, onto the power ball. Well it's meant to be a wrist exceriser but it's also very addictive. Basically you thin the ...

I bought the Powerball from Firebox.com for £24.99. I don’t think it was worth the money, though with a smaller price tag, it may have been worth the money. Instead of see-thru red, mines see-thru green, with a yellow gyroscope part in the middle. Other than that, it looks like the one in the picture. The reason I bought the ...

I've got one of these - exactly the same as in the picture! Bought on a whim, it provided much entertainment around the office as everyone tried to beat the RPM high score (both left and right handed). Once you get it running you experience a unique feeling and very soon your forearm feels tired, apparently this gizmo is meant to help ...
