Wrote some words: dodgy cosmology, Gee Bee aircraft, narrow-gauge rail. It's all average round here.

Bought one of they Powerball things. Ow bloody hell my wrists. Do they work, or are they like crap poi for even more annoying people?

powerballs work. bring to WGW, I will show you[tm].

otherwise: imagine you are stirring a big big big pot of chocolate really slowly. and that kinda does it.

Words: good.

Powerball: pointless but curious. What would it mean if it worked ?

Stronger wrists + forearms (and stronger core) = able to stand on the pedals and give it what-for w/o waving from side to side like a pillock.

Well, my left wrist that was useless at using the powerball because it didn't rotate enough now rotates. And the RSI in my right wrist has been bothering me less. My forearms are knotting up less due to being exercised. SO generally it's a god thing, but not an incredible thing.

It does take a while to get the hang of it. Jo had arms aching for a couple of days afterwards too, but this does demonstrate that it's working.

Pilates yes, powerball powerbollocks.

How is high-tech powerwanking going to improve yoru core strength?

[moral-vacuum.livejournal.com]

Well quite.

[hirez.livejournal.com]

Daily faffing on the swiss ball does that.

So basically, it's all balls.

[hirez.livejournal.com]

That would be an ecumenical matter.

Ah, I understand.

Can you get a Turbonique back axle for the thing instead ?
