Item #1 DIY adjustable
kettle bells
-The most expensive item in a gym, dumbbells and
kettle bells can go for upwards of 2$ per pound
-A standard home gym has weights that go up to 50lb in
5lb increments, if you do the math that’s about 550$
before tax
-You could always go buy adjustable dumbbells but
that’s still about 200$ before tax. I was able DIY this
item for well under 50$.

-once done sewing cut off the excess threading and flip the bag inside out,
pushing out the corners fully from the inside so that the bag again makes a
square shape
(Note that in these next steps the square is now slightly taller
than is wide, this is normal and due to the technique being 8
used)
-Now sew halfway across the top leaving only
half of it open (this will make the filling step
much easier)

-Now sew two rectangles within one of the doubled up sections
as shown
-it is very important that all these stiches are gone over 3 or 4
times
Once again, since this item will be holding weight its recommended that
you double up all stiches to prevent tears
-making to
pouches, leaving
the side pointed at
the neck hole
open, Shown to
