Chris Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 There were a few floating round the office last year and my old flatmate had one. Good fun once you get the hang of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HateEvent Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Throw them across the room?!I thought they were simply for strengthening your wrist...Some of them have rev counters on the side. What you do is keep spinning it for as long as you can and see how many revs you can get. The faster it is - the better you're doing (obviously).Couple of my friends have them. They both say it has made their wrists stronger.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGoatski Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 I bought one of them and was so impressed with it that I bought one each for all my family. Good fun, good exercise and good for folk who have Repetitive Strain Injury, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and stuff.Managed to get mine up to 12,117 rpm.Oh, yeah, make sure you get the one with the rev counter otherwise . I got the Neon one that lights up when it reaches about 1,000 rpm but apparently they are a little harder to get up to speed than the non-lighty-up eens.

arcadian Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 They have a bunch of them in that weight store (on the corner of the streets between John Lewis and Aberdeen College) and they also cost 25 there. Probably less if you have a student discount. Is there anywhere cheaper online? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threeornothing Posted February 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Theres one here for 13.99, I'm sure its the same one they charge £25 for at that weight store... http://www.musicbynet.co.uk/acatalog/Powerball___The_must_have_arm_and_wrist_exerciser_.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
