Re: Powerball
Thank you for these kind (head swelling!) words guys.
I note some email requests for the cords/straps and will have the girls send them out later this afternoon - it was a bank holiday here yesterday so we are just playing catch up for the next few hours with regards to correspondence.
Just a quick note about tennis elbow/RSI etc.
Your Powerball has been medically approved as a superb rehabilitation device to help combat these symptoms (and it does it in a very fast, efficient manner if the unprompted feedback we receive from [former] sufferers is anything to go by).
However, I want to point out that if you are going to use it for rehabilitation purposes, then you should do so at a slow but steady pace from the onset and avoid spinning at speeds in excess of 6000rpm until your limbs become accustomed to what is essentially a completely different workout to what you may ever have experienced in the past (regardless of how often you might visit the gym and use machines/free weights).
We also recommend that in such instances you carry out some simple warm up exercises and stretches before spinning the ball at a max of 5000/6000rpm (higher speeds will lead to a more strengthened muscle but also a less flexible muscle, therefore potentially making the injury worse - in truth, there is no point trying to strengthen a muscle when it contains recent scar tissue due to RSI, for example, as the scar tissue isn't there to be strengthened and will simply break).
Once you have used the ball at such speeds for perhaps 14 days, not only will you find that your condition has significantly improved, but you will also now be in a position to begin increasing those spin speeds to a more respectable level...7000...8000...9000+ in short bursts of 20/30 seconds.
As with any exercise product of course, if in doubt have a quick consult with your doctor before use.
Thank you all once again for this much appreciated enthusiasm.
With kind regards, Rory
