A visit to a sporting goods store is enough to tell you that getting fit can be an expensive business. But there’s no need to splurge on a variety of weights and other goodies when you can make them at home using a few cheap items from your local hardware store – or even junk! Kit out your home gym with these cool cost-savers and buck the system.1. MAKE YOUR OWN PULL-UP BARWhat could be easier? It’s just a bar, after all! Set it between two sturdy pieces of wood, use some tape to make comfortable hand grips and you’re good to go. You just need to find a steady beam or even a tree branch to hang it up from. You’ll work out a whole bunch of muscle groups with your pull ups – and if you happen to have some nice metal bar or piping in your garage, it won’t cost you a cent.
1. BUILD YOUR STRENGTH WITH ‘DUMB-BOTTLES’
Dumbbells are expensive, especially if you want to use different weights for different exercises, but every week, we throw away milk bottles, water bottles or juice bottles that could become your best workout buddies. Fill them with sand, stones or cement, and you‘re ready to start pumping ‘bottle’. Those arms are looking great!
considered, they're honored with ability, certainty and extraordinary looks. Clearly life has been benevolent them? In any case, life hasn't generally been simple for Keanu.His father left the something out of a children's story.
2. MAKE YOUR KETTLEBELLS
Grab some quick-setting cement and some steel piping from your hardware store. Then pop into a toyshop and choose a rubber or plastic ball you can use for a mold. You will want to bend the bar at right angles or weld on ‘feet’ so that the bar grips solidly into the concrete when it’s set. For an even easier solution that you can make heavier or lighter at will, use an old bag with strong handles and a closeable zipper. Fill it with sand, and get moving.
