PowerBalance, Does it work?

[Christopher Brunsdon]

I am sure it does, you must see how much energy is required to get it up a climb.

I wore 1 since Jan, think i had an improved hockey season with the same amount of practice and in a higher league? Astro turf with Trail Running shoes as per previous years.

 

Taken it off about a week ago, noticably my golfers elbow was nippy but i'm not sure if it's cos of the PB band?

 

Whether it works or not is always gonna be a debate, if they say it's Placebo then yes, when i first put it on i felt invincible, then i realised i can still only ride a Superbike so fast, traction is a problem with diesel etc! After a while i never knew i was wearing it or thought what it does except when somebody asked, "so does that thing work?"

 

There's a lot of people that will jump up and knock it, few willing to stand up and confess to having 1, i was willing to go out and try it? If my riding get's worse i'll let u know!

Spinnekop you right throw a stone. What I mean is there a pro cyclist that is the face of powerbalance? Say for arguements sake a Contador or Schlek?

And wrapping magnets around your car's fuel line might make your car faster/more economical. So you ought to do that too.

 

 

That magnet thing was such a laugh. I know someone who bought one but he wasn't the brightest person I knew.

Just a stone in the bush.......

I'd say it's a USN one as she's sponsored by USN.

 

BTW, USN make everything for Biogen...

Saw a USN one the other day.

I would have thought that Biogen would have used red silicone. Do they come in red ??

 

So what did you do with it ? Put it on ?

Placebo or not..... it works for me......

I wore one for a bit, none of the balance tests worked on me, I still fell over, performed worse than ever.

 

Took it off and am back to normal as far as performance is concerned - not for me thanks!

[Bin Laden]

will it help with landing? since I've only been taught to take-off and crash.

[Bennie Dikwiel]

I got this bracelet on a recent MTB excursion near Port St Johns. I think the motivating factor for me buying it was that I saw Ghaitshi Ghubi wearing the exact same one and you should see him running over the rocks with unreal balance and power. Oh ja I also bought a plot with a case of brandy, now just waiting for the title deeds.

It is complete hokum.

 

I coach cricket and the sad thing is that through the publicity the cricketers give, kids as young as 9 are wearing them and they really do believe that it works. Some of the 14 year old boys are equally gullible

14 year olds? Round here we get grown ups. People with the vote, jobs, mortgages and 14 year olds of their own who are "equally gullible".

 

Give it a while and one of them will come along and tell you how well it works.

 

And then you can join the rest of us all in pointing and laughing.

I bought one of these, I felt like a real dick the first time I wore it, but I have the power of a pornstar now.

At least if you put a hologram in these you could feel like a real tit.
