Xtensor Gamer Hand Exerciser

With the notable exception of the Wii, it is very rare that we associate gaming which physical exertion, and although you may be sweaty after playing, it probably doesn’t have anything to do with you actually moving. So you’d have thought that something designed to help fine tune your body for gaming would be a none starter; but you’d be wrong.

The Xtensor Gamer Hand Exerciser does pretty much exactly what it says on the tin: it exercises your hand so you can be better at gaming. It is essentially an elaborated glove with lots of springs attached meaning that in order to open your hand you need to pull your fingers on the springs.

It claims to be the only product on the market to perform with true biomechanical correctness, which allows you to stretch and build the muscles in your fingers, hands wrist and even elbow that have not previously been addressed by other products.

ProMotion Keyboard to Prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Keyboards are dangerous things! – Although they won’t trip you up, break your legs or blow up on you, they can still be the cause of worryingly severe injuries. So much so that many now carry educational/warning labels on the back to warn you of the problems they can cause – which can range from RSI (repetitive strain injury) to wrist injuries sustained from prolonged periods of uncomfortable positions.

And we haven’t seen the worst of it – the current generation (under 20) are growing up with keyboards, and are spending increasing amounts of time on them. Even a large percentage of the older generation use keyboards as part of their work, and if you are reading this then you are definitely affected. And that is why Jack Atzmon has come up with the new ProMotion keyboard which is designed to ease the problems caused by static keyboards.
