Home gym Weights for COVID-19 days - bottle adapter (connector)

I'm thrilled to share with you my innovative new design project, a weight training set crafted specifically for home use during these challenging times. Like many others, the COVID-19 pandemic has left me without access to a gym where I can work out in comfort. The skyrocketing demand for home training equipment meant that items were quickly sold out or offered at extortionate prices that aren't feasible during this financially complex period. I was stuck at home, deprived of my daily training routine, and without the proper equipment to work out on my own. So I did what I do best – I designed. I came up with a weight training set designed for use with regular 1.5 liter (50oz) water or soda bottles that you can use around your house or pick up from your local recycling bins. The set can be printed out with any 3D printer. Each weight serves a different function for your home workout routine, and I'm excited to share the details with you. Weights are an essential part of training and help maintain muscle mass. Weight training can significantly improve your health and mood. The set is comprised of five independent parts, each designed for a specific purpose: • Carrier handle for a six-pack: bottles sold in six-packs often come with flimsy and inconvenient handles for lifting. My design solves this issue with a reinforced, steady handle that's perfect for heavy lifting and staircase training. • 3kg (6.5lbs)/5kg (11lbs) hand weights: Used with two full bottles of water (3kg) or sand (5kg). • 6kg (13lbs)/10kg (22lbs) kettlebells: Used with four full bottles of water (6kg) or sand (10kg). • 15kg (33lbs)/25kg (55lbs) barbells: Used with 10 full bottles of water (15kg) or sand (25kg). • 7.5kg (16.5lbs)/12.5kg (26.5lbs) deadlift fan: Used with 5 full bottles of water (7.5kg) or sand (12.5kg).
