The exercise equipment I chose to make was a barbell. If I were to buy a barbell already made I would spend approximately 15 and up dollars. I chose this equipment because I believe it can be very useful for different exercises. Mainly exercises such as the barbell squats and barbell lunges. I think the barbell would be very great to help build strength in my glutes, hamstrings, hips and quadriceps.
In order to make this equipment I used quick-setting, cement, pipe and two bottles. The process of making the barbell took a total of 30 minutes. The first step was to make the cement.The cement I bought was really easy and simple to make , simply add water. The second step was to cut the two plastic water bottles in half. The third step is to finally add the cement into each half bottles and stick one to each side of the barbell. Last but not least let the cement dry for 20 minutes and your barbell is all set. The reason I wanted to make a barbell is because when I go to the gym I really like to use a barbell for exercising. Therefore, I automatically thought it would be really cool to make a barbell that I can use at home.
I really enjoyed making the barbell because it was really fun and easy to make. I think it's important to know how to make a exercise equipment because some people don't have the money to go to the gym or time to go. Therefore, knowing how to make an exercise equipment it can be beneficial for people who like to work out from home or for people who would also like to save money. You might need an exercise equipment when you're trying to gain muscle thing fit or just wanting to improve your health. The barbell can help gain muscle in your chest, triceps shoulders,gluts,hamstrings and quads. I believe it’s important to know how to make equipment because it can be helpful to stay healthy. It can also be really important if you don’t like to workout in front of people,working out at home would be better and it can also be way cheaper.
