Homemade Kettlebells for $1!

    I found an old triceps bar at a garage sale for $1.












    I simply cut the bar in half and cut away the extra part of
    the bar above the handle.











    So far I have the two loaded up with 30 and 60 pounds. I have tried
    swings, twists, and curls with good luck. I am not sure if I would swing them
    over my head though. I am thinking I could load some more for farmers'
    walks.













    I should add that to keep the collars from slipping, I used hose clamps
    tightened against the collars. I have used these on spin lock collars
    for years and they work perfectly for keeping the collars on tight.
