Make Milk Bottle Dumbells
-
1
Clean the empty milk bottle with warm water and soap, and let it dry for five minutes.
-
2
Fill the milk bottle to the top with water or sand. Screw the lid on tightly, and secure it with the duct tape.

3
Make heavier weights by using stones or concrete. However, bear in mind that concrete needs at least 24 hours to solidify.
Make a Homemade Ab Bench
-
4
Lay out the electrical piping and plywood. Take the electrical piping and place it at the top of the plywood horizontally.
-
5
Use the hammer and two nails to secure the piping. Make sure the piping is secure by pulling on it firmly.
-
6
Lean the plywood against a low stall or a strong sofa seat. Lay a large piece of cloth over the bench before use for cushioning.
-
7
Make a permanent ab bench by nailing the electrical piping against a fence or stair rail. Use the hammer and nails to attach the bench to the piping. When the bench is secure, it is ready to use.
