PowerBalance, Does it work?

[Spannerman]

I have done quite a bit of research concerning these "powerbands", there are alot of opinions out there and there are equal opinions on both sides of the argument.

 

Many of my friends use them and swear they work, but i'm unconvinced.

Has anybody got one of these? Does it work?

Lots of opinions, yes.

 

Positive research findings? Not so much.

 

Popcorn, anyone?

Don't even go there dude. Kudos for having the guts to start this thread. BTW, you can buy them at the China Mall for about R5 each.

a doctor told me they are rubbish

You could make a "ghetto" band. I wonder if anyone has posted a youtube video yet

If you combine it with a rambo bandana you may get even stronger...

salt and vinegar or butter salt?

[Spannerman]

Well that's pretty much a unanimous answer, thanks guys

[Chris_K]

No, Guys. There must be some unanswered questions, like how much does it weigh? Or does it work better on road or MTB?

Pass the butter please!

Somebody done some serious marketing because they must have sold millions.

Watched the cricket yesterday for a few minutes and noticed that a number of players were wearing them.

Was at the supplement store the other day and a guy came in specifically to purchase one, he paid R300 for it.

 

Maybe the guys at this years Tour de France should have worn them so they could have kept their balance. :rolleyes:
