Homemade Equipment Updates

September 17th, 2009 | Category: Training

Below are two new updates for the Homemade Equipment Sticky.

The first shows a homemade lifting log that has been suited with handles and weight loading pins.

You can find instructions and several photos at the link below:

DIY Strongman Log

Next, you will find instructions on how to build inexpensive thick handles for dumbbells or barbells. Thick handles have been discussed here in the past (with other ideas presented), but PVC is certainly a common and inexpensive option.

You can find complete instructions at the link below:

    That strongman log is incredible!!! I have a few logs waiting to be cut up for fire but one may end up as a strong man log.

    I wonder if using PVC would let the handles rotate, though I’m not sure if rotating thick handles is good or not. I really want to make one of these logs.
