250Hz Gyroscope - Grip, Wrist and Forearm Strengthener for Sports and Rehabilitation (Classic)

When you first open the packaging, You will see a Powerball and 2 pieces of red string- cord.. 1, At first, I thought the Powerball was a bit of waste of time. It took me a long time to get to grips with how you get the inner ball to rotate. Once you have the hang of it though, it's really quite easy to use. 2, Place the small length of red cord into a hole and turn the inner ball a few turns, Then pull. It will start to spin slowly. The idea is you then turn your hand and slowly to keep it rotating. It is the inner ball which spins. Then the more you turn your hand the faster it will. And the harder you have to hold it, That is the idea of it. 3, This is the original Powerball and I think the best, The manufacturer's description really doesn't do this product justice, Try the website. very helpful site. 4, First use this Powerball at low speeds it is great for wrist and arms. At the high speeds it gives an Amazing workout and really builds up all the arm and shoulder muscles. That is If you can hold on to the ball, it is quite hard at full speed. I think it would benefit Racket plays etc. 5, The build Quality is Excellent and there is a lifetime guarantee. I could write so much more about this product, If you want a great workout for arms wrist and shoulder, Will leaves your arms etc. burning after a few minutes. You've got to buy one and try for yourself, you will not regret it. This one has lasted me a long, And still works great. You could Try the version with a Timing computer on top of the Powerball so you can see how you're progressing. I would Highly recommended great workout. Well worth the money for a Quality Powerball.

My son has his own gyroscope, and I find that very hard to handle. This one is ideal for an elderly woman's wrists. Really good.

This is a good hand/physio aid to strengthen the wrist/arm and hand. As long as you can get it to spin! When I first got it, I could do it. At the moment, I can't. I'll persevere as I'm a patient person, but if you're not so patient, it may be an issue. When I got it working, I could definitely feel the resistance so it can do as the product description says.

If you can't get the ball to spin it's your technique not the ball! Once you master that the Ball will be great fun And Will definitely improve your grip and strength it's good quality for the price And seem to be well made, I've just started trials riding and use it to improve my wrist strength And to relax the wrists after a strenuous ride

So the mechanism to get this started is tedious and archaic - you have to twist a string around the middle ball. Not very advanced and it is time consuming when you do not pull it out hard enough to create the necessary motion the first time. It took me a few attempts to get to grips with how the powerball works. This aspect of it is rubbish. If you do t get it going on the first few attempts your wrist is in agony for trying to use it it It sits comfortably in your grip without stretching your hand. Easy to maintain grip because of rubber at top and around centre of the powerball. However, once I was able to get into a rhythm with it I found that the powerball made a lot of difference to the RSI I suffer from in my wrist. I use the powerball for about a minute and it gives me a half day release from the RSI pain (depending on how much I am using my wrist/hand). I tend to use it for a minute once in the evening, morning and midday to ensure that I get the maximum relief from pain. Since starting to use the powerball I have not had to use pain relief cream or wear my wrist & palm support at all and can go about my daily work/exercise without pain. Definitely try this out before you have a steroid injection on start trying to use pills to alleviate the pain.

Relatively simple to operate. The pull string is a bit of a faff but once mastered the gyroscope has played an excellent therapy and rehab facility for my plated broken wrist.

Unfortunately within 20 mins of getting this it is broken. I did get it spinning pretty fast a few times but I then made an attempt pulling the chord down fast it ripped the ball out of my other hand such that the ball fell to the floor quite hard (kitchen tiles). I then spent half hour getting the tangled up chord back out again but unfortunately the internal mechanism no longer spins freely. Admittedly this is user error on my part but annoying it’s not a little more robust.

As I've only had this for a couple of weeks, time will tell how effective it is. It seems well made and sturdy, comfortable in hand and you feel the Gyro as you work against it. It took me a good few attempts before suddenly I was successful, but longer with my other hand. Strange that as my dominant hand took longer to master it. I find it spins in both clockwise and anti direction too which you can change while it is spinning. The trick I find is to rotate smoothly as any jerky movements affect it spinning. I'm not sure if it is successful yet but I can feel the muscles after a few minutes use, they are aware of being used but not in a painful way. At the moment I use it around twice a day for around two minute seach hand. No doubt I will build this up for longer sessions in future. Please ensure you use the wrist loop though. I think if it got loose it could do some damage. I have not tried that but there is quite an energy build up as the Powerball rotates. I bought this to improve my grip and tone up my forearms etc. I am 80 yearsold and find my muscles not as firm as I would like. New update. A couple of weeks in and going well. I can feel a difference both in grip and firmness of forearms. I am up to 5 minutes each arm twice a day and can not only change direction of spin, but swap from one hand to the other and swap the wrist loop as wellwhile itspins. I am pleased with this product and will keep at it. I wonder if the "NO Pain No Gain" is necessary, as apart from a bit of tiredness and a not unpleasant feeling that Ihave used my muscles, there is no pain at all. I am happy about that as I am not a pain lover.

Causa una brutta epicondilite ho acquistato la rpm power se vogliamo anche con poca fiducia. Seppur da pochi giorni che la uso ho notato un buon miglioramento soprattutto nella aumento della forza dei muscoli avambraccio. Naturalmente è solo un piccolo passo ma in questo tipo di patologie se non si vuole incorrere in infiltrazioni ci vuole tanta pazienza ed esercizi giusti e la powerball è un valido alleato. Sinceramente non capisco le difficoltà di molti utenti nel farla funzionare . Personalmente al primo colpo sono riuscito a farla partire....incuriosito ho fatto provare ad altri amici e nessuno ha avuto problemi. Se posso permettermi seguite queste semplici istruzioni: 1) arrotolate bene il cordino rosso nella scanalatura del rotore 2) lasciate circa 5 cm del cordino penzolare verso il basso. 3) afferrate la sfera con la vs mano dominante e con l altra tirate con forza verso il basso perpendicolarmente 4) il rotore entra in funzione a questo punto con il braccio FERMO ruotate il polso con dell circonduzioni e assecondate il rotore e vedrete che non ci saranno problemi.AVVERTENZE: attenzione le prime volte soprattutto a non esagerare sia con il tempo (min 1 max 2 minuti)che con la rotazione perche piu gira piu simula un maggiore peso fino ad arrivare a oltre 20kg. Conclusione se avete problemi fisici ai tendini/muscoli usate una bassa rotazione se invece volete fare lavoro di potenziamento muscolatura usatelo a giri superiori

It works as expected, no complaints, came with two strings to start it so that's great!

It is little pricey but does the job it says

I tore my wrist ligaments and my doctor recommended that product to me so i ordered it. At the beginning i was a little bit confused how it might work, but after a few times of trying i finally figured it out and since then it became a common practice for me. I’d recommend you to buy if if you want to strengthen your arms.
