I did use it a lot when studying for my final exams, just spinning it constantly at a low speed. Well, when I went to write the exams, I was able to write pages and pages; I noticed in one brutally long exam that I was stopping to stretch my neck, and that half of the class was rubbing their wrists, forearms, etc, from writer's cramp.

It also helped with my golf swing a bit, but then again, my golf game had no where to go but up!]]> Guitar Players Discussion bandit_matt https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-355222 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-355021 Fri, 18 Jun 2010 09:08:04 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion TRGuitar https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-355021 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-355019 Fri, 18 Jun 2010 08:23:24 +0000
My other issue is faster paced songs that require otherwise easy chord changes, but ones done fast. I tender to over-squeeze.]]> Guitar Players Discussion rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-355019 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354821 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 23:04:18 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Apache https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354821 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354731 Sun, 13 Jun 2010 00:51:18 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Anonymous https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354731 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354620 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 22:11:16 +0000
I'll forget that idea and focus on playing and try a much cheaper tennis ball instead :D]]> Guitar Players Discussion Apache https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354620 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354594 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 15:30:38 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354594 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354593 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 15:23:31 +0000
Also could be used to warm up before practicing, help loosen and stretch the muscles. But unless you are really weak your hands will develop enough strength by playing.

All these Powerball stuff is just media hype in my opinion. They want a reason to charge you $20 for something worth $1]]> Guitar Players Discussion cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354593 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354587 Fri, 11 Jun 2010 15:02:34 +0000
Your hand will get a little stronger, but you will learn no technique. The Powerballs are noisy too, so you cant do it while watching tv, or other down time.

( Also the fact that their official site's 'medical' claims come from Chiropractors puts its 'medical' claims into the land of make believe)]]> Guitar Players Discussion AdrianJMartin https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/nsd-powerball/#post-354587
