Power Balance Bands wtf

Had many a disscussion about these. The over riding answer is if they didn't work they wouldn't sell so many.wether they actually work is immaterial, placebo effect an all that. I know a few guys who use them and they sweat by them. Check out how many atheltes use them.

:( That's just shattered my illusions, there was me thinking they sat on the sofa eating crisps, pizza and chocolate whilst watching Jeremy Kyle then slip the little wrist band on and go and win races.

Ho hum, you learn something new every day.

heeeeeeeeeeeeey i didn't write that ;) :lol:

nothing new there though. i swapped to riser bars in 95 but i cant ride as well as jmc. Placebos are very powerful, the real question is if you know something is a placebo, can it still work? and if it does work, then can it be a placebo?
