42544f536764667735494a4675496f4b597a67-100x100-0-0“Here we go”, we can hear you groaning, “yet another new fangled gadget to add to the list”. Something you will be forced to buy – because temptation will get the better of you and advertising will convince you that you can’t possible live without it – and , as always, its enjoyment will be short-lived and it will end its sorry little life fighting for space amongst the other one hit wonders at the bottom of your cupboard.

Well this time it really is different, because Powerball is not a fad; it is a superlative fitness instrument, a definitive sports product and a gentle, non-impact rehabilitation tool – that just happens to be addictive. So, what on earth is this brilliant innovation and how exactly does it work?

In a nutshell, it is the world’s most perfectly balanced gyroscope, a finely engineered and rapidly spinning rotor enclosed in a solid, hand-held outer sphere. To make it work, all you have to do is set the rotor in motion (by using a cord or your finger) and build up speed by subtle rotation of the wrist.

The stronger you are the faster you will be able to make the Powerball spin. The faster you make it spin the more inertia it generates and the more resistance it subsequently inflicts upon your body.

It can reach speeds in excess of 15,000rpm, generating a staggering 40lbs of inertial resistance. This, in turn, builds up power in your shoulders, arms and wrists – one of the main contributing factors to excellence in up to 95% of all sports.

It dramatically increases a Powerball trained player’s ability to hit a ball further, straighter and with more authority. It also boosts endurance levels, making it ideal for fitness enthusiasts of virtually every kind of sport.

In addition, because the inertia generated is directly proportional to the speed at which you are spinning the rotor, it is just as capable of gently rehabilitating a damaged limb as it is building up muscle.

The Powerball comes in several ‘flavors’ to suit everyone’s taste, try some of these for size:

Powerball 250hz Amber

Powerball Metal

Powerball 250hz Pro Blue

Powerball Neon Green Pro
