just wondering how long I should be using the powerball for every day?

I saw you guys up at the Toys4BigBoys show in the RDS - you rocked!

Gerard,

That depends really... I would always use the ball for about 10-15 mins a day for the first month and then build up my speed slowly over time.

I would recommend starting off at this and then to use the powerball several times a day for longer periods.

Ahh ****, fair enough; I was wondering why my wrist was extremely painful; id been using it for hours on the first day (and im not terribly strong, id been pushing it!)

I just got mine today and i cant leave it alone.. on my second go i managed 11,327 but havnt got anywhere near since then.. which is like 2 hours ago

what about using it for long periods of time but on a relatively low rpm.. its a bit of a stress relief device, and i honestly cant keep my hand off the thing

Yes Leon, using it at a low speed for long durations offers excellent rehabilitation for damaged limbs and muscle tissue (RSI, Carpal Tunnel, Tendonitis etc) - the guideline is "Low speeds for gentle relief - High speeds for pure muscle building fun"
