i dont play the lottery.

I actually have one of those, it is one HELL of a workout for your forearms.

I actually have one of those, it is one HELL of a workout for your forearms.

When I was in PT awhile back, I picked one of those bad boys up and just started goin....it's a workout alright....damn....I should prolly pick one up for myself....

 

[Transcend]

Ya, i got it when i blew up my wrist and was in a cast for 16 weeks. It helped out a ton getting strength back.

 

[LukeD]

i have one and it works awesome. i still like the stick, rope and plate better....but that's my hockey background talking.

 

[mandown]

i wore mine out. it was good while it lasted.

I'm single, my forearms get enough of a workout...

They do a metal one now

I've got one, and it definitely helps with building your hand strength. Helps with building a tolerance to arm pump too.

 

[Brian Peterson]

I used one after I was out for 4 months with a busted wrist... It really helped build up strength and range of motion.

[Dog Welder]

I got one cuz it has cool blinky lights....too bad my left arm is no where near as coordinated as my right

 

[Downhiller]

i just go mine from UK (chainreactioncycles.com) and damn i am so weak only 7500 rpm and my arms are killing me i must work out..

damn this is so fun and so helpful for whole arm!!

**** 16 weeks, what happened??

Anyone know how they work for carpal tunnel? I've got it in my right wrist from using my mouse at work and home and it's only gonna get worse because I am a slave to the internet.

Or you could start climbing/bouldering, gives you more strength and stops arm pump. But powerballs work, but my personal experience is that you dont use it after 2 weeks.

 

[Eggzoi]

I've just used one for a minute or so and it killed me, if I had any money I'd pick one up for sure. Works the entire arm over and as a bonus sound like a plane's taking off it you can go quick enough.

 

[Downhiller]

guys who are using them how much RPM can you do ?!

my correct record using it about 3 hours is 7200 rpm

 

[renorider40]

These things are pretty cool. I went to this guys house and he had one, but it seemed like it was in pretty bad shape. It still worked but not quite like it was supposed to. I think i will buy a new one.

 

[EVRAC]

I've already got one on order.
I'm recovering from my broken ulna.
Hope it does the trick.
I got the 250hz pro.

same here....last year it was part of my rehab for my broken wrist as well

 

[Downhiller]

i bought neon red its same as 250ghz but it have led diodas which glow more and more faster you spin , and for led diodas you dont have batteries only for counter of rpm


great i just made 7300 rpm and after 30 sec my arms are starting to kill me , every time few second more i can do..

this is great thing

my ball

only thing is in begging its hard to start but after few times its easy and you do every time..

 

[DH Diva]

Ditto on what everyone has said. They really work your forearm and wrist. I started using my friends on a road trip and I'm addicted now.

 

[Chimponarope]

Took me about a week but I usually break 10k each time now. Not broken 11k yet.

 

[banj]

I bought one last winter to help recover from wrist surgery (scaphoid big suprise).

It's a great workout for you whole arm...right up to the shoulder. My current best is 12,450 for my right arm and 11,600 for the left arm (the one that had surgery).

I'd reccomend it to anyone. Other exercises will do the same thing for you but they're not nearly as addictive. I got my brother and my brother in law hooked as well.

 

[Downhiller]

ok 2 days using 9000 rmp

 

[freakrock]

Anyone know how they work for carpal tunnel? I've got it in my right wrist from using my mouse at work and home and it's only gonna get worse because I am a slave to the internet.

i was about to ask the same question.

 

[skinny mike]

i picked one up a few years back. it's really cool and is one hell of a workout for your wrists. i wonder where it is in my room right now.

 

[Downhiller]

avarage speed is now 10k with no problem, using every day for 5 minutes every hand is stronger...

i just love this thing

 

[jcook90]

i got the same one mentioned above with the red lights in it. its a sweet workout when i use it, i've just been somewhat lazy and havnt felt like using it, which i think i might go do right now. they really are an arm workout and i can see how they'd help with DH

 

[snowskilz]

picked up mine yesterday. gotta learn how to use the beast other then the basic but its one hell of a work out. the wifey lasted about 5 mins and i was able to rock 10 mins first night
