My kids made me awesome mother's day gifts, a book a calendar. It was lovely. My husband got me some cool things off of Amazon and they should come in the next couple of days.
weights With the help of my husband I made a slosh pipe for weight lifting. I sometimes call it a slosh tube. Its a homemade weightlifting PVC Tube partially filled with water. To save money we used a conduit pipe which needed cutting so the caps would fit. I wanted barbells but felt this was a better option because I don't have access to spotter during my prime workout times. I use a large container for weightlifting as well unlike a Kettlebell its odd shape keeps me from using it as cardio moves. Heavy weights like Kettlebells should be used with slow movements not cardio swings. I will be making my own ankle weights for leg extensions I watched some videos on YouTube and seem pretty easy to make. I won't make dumbbells though I have seen pretty awesome tutorials on making them from cement I would be scared of a big piece coming off. Dumbbells are pretty cheap. I am waiting on a 9 pound set to come today or tomorrow. It was a mother's day gift from my husband.
