They build up strength in yur wrist and forearm. Weird but they do work need some sort of engineer to explain why. You spin the ball inside it by pulling a string you then need to keep it moving in a circular at the right speed to keep the ball spinning.

Gets bloody painful after a while so it must be doing some good.

I tried weight training at home but it just didn't work for me. Whean at home I felt a little too relaxed so couldn't really get in the mood fo training. When at the gym I feel much more focused on what I want to do as I was surrounded by other like minded individuals. Also free weights can be quite expensive. And to have a whole range and one's that are heavy enough for me would cost a small fortune. I know what you mean with regards to posing types though. The gym where I train (bodyzone in Bracknell) has a few of them. It's a bodybuilding gym though so it's to be expected. Personally I just get on with what I am doing and don't really take much notice of them anymore. Anyway good luck!
