What is Powerball and How Can I Benefit From It?

Powerball is a revolutionary new workout device that is shaking up the exercise world. Professional body-builders, weekend warriors and even physicians are singing the praises of the hand-held gyroscope for its amazing ability to develop muscles and rehabilitate injuries. The advanced engineering and tremendous results are more than enough to have earned it a place in gyms around the world.

Powerball explained

A Powerball is about the size of a tennis ball, but it packs a serious punch. Inside the 300 gram Powerball is a computer-balanced flywheel that revolves freely within the frame with just a slight rotation of your wrist. That rotation generates an unbelievable amount of torque that travels up your arms, strengthening your fingers, hands, wrists, forearms, biceps, triceps, chest and shoulders.

Powerball for exercise

Working out with a Powerball is like holding a tornado in the palm of your hand. As you rotate it faster and faster, the tension on your arm increases up to 40 pounds of torque. This gyroscopic inertia doesn't spare any part of your arms. Regardless of your current level of fitness, you'll find it's very difficult to keep the Powerball spinning because it directs so much energy right up your arm. Even power-lifters who can curl the heaviest free-weights will find they're no match for the Powerball. That's because the torque is targeted to affect the muscles in a way that weights and resistance machines cannot match. Pound for pound, a Powerball delivers more punch for the money than any workout accessory for sale today.

How does it work?

Here's how the Powerball works. First, you take it in your hand and begin spinning the inner flywheel with a quick tug on a string or flick of the wrist. Once it starts spinning, you'll immediately notice the torque it generates. As you spin it faster and faster, the Powerball ramps up the torque. Speeds of over 16,000 rpm generate up to forty pounds of torque that is transferred to every muscle in your arm. As you spin the Powerball, a digital readout tells you how fast you're spinning and how much torque you're generating.

Powerball - For therapy and rehabilitation

Powerball could help with endonitis, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, golf injuries, sprained wrists and repetitive strain injury

Physical therapists love the Powerball because of its low impact and high-resistance. Because the Powerball only goes as fast as you can spin it, it's great for rebuilding damaged muscles. The Powerball is used by therapists as a rehab tool for people suffering from tendonitis, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, golf injuries, sprained wrists and repetitive strain injury. The smooth, easy motion of the Powerball strengthens the targeted muscles and fortifies the nearby supporting muscles.

The Powerball is also good for improving performance in dozens of sporting activities like tennis, golf, baseball, bowling, basketball, cycling, fencing, hockey, rowing, mountain biking, rock climbing, canoeing, wrestling and kayaking. Anything you do that requires arm strength will benefit from a regular workout with the Powerball.

Why do people love Powerball?

But a Powerball is not just for working out or rehabilitating injuries. It's a fun device to have at a party or small gathering. People love to try their hand at spinning it to see who can make it go the fastest. Once you pick it up, a Powerball is hard to put down. It's an addictive, effective workout device for recreational athletes and professionals alike. Whether you're young or old, male or female, you'll have a ton of fun as you spin, spin, spin your way to fitness.
