Homemade Adjustable Kettlebell

Working out with adjustable kettlebells will help increase your muscle definition faster than if you used regular dumbbells. The secret lies within the unique set up of the kettlebell itself which has the handle on a different plain than the weights. This means it takes more muscle control to lift the kettlebells and thus you get a more complete workout.

However, you can augment your workouts even more if you use an adjustable kettlebell. An homemade kettlebell is easy to craft in your home and can be created with some leftover piping and ordinary weights. In this manner, you can create a kettlebell that can gradually add on weight so to increase your workout intensity. The adjustable kettlebell is a relatively simply device, yet it can be the basis for your entire anaerobic workout routine.

To make an home made kettlebell you’ll need some small free weights like you would find on a dumbbell, some piping and a bracket that runs along either side of the weights, a long bolt and a nut large enough to cover the holes in the bracket to keep the weights held tightly together. You’ll want to use a wrench to make sure the nut is properly tightened and maybe even include some washers to insure that you are getting the right tension.

The piping is really the hand grip which is very important in keeping the weights steady. You’ll want to use piping that is large enough to comfortably fit your grip without being too small or large. Otherwise you will run the risk of dropping the weights, probably at the most inopportune time. So you want to be sure that the handle is proper for the size of your hand.

The beauty of this simple, yet effective way to make an adjustable kettlebell is that you can add weight when you improve your performance. Also, you can make an DIY kettlebell for different sizes of free weights to help you with your overall workout routine. Your leg muscles are generally far larger and stronger than your arm muscles, so getting a more intense workout with better results will mean different sets of weights.

Larger weights can be used for two-handed exercises, particularly squats and those that focus on the leg muscles. You’ll want to be sure to keep your form correct to avoid injury, especially on your back. You may even want to work with a partner on the occasions you use the larger weights to help guide you in proper form. In any case, you’ll certainly want to be careful when working out with larger weights.

The smaller weights are excellent for your chest, arms and upper back as they can help give you the proper shape and mold your body into the classic wide chest, strong arms look that all men certainly want as well as for women who want a more toned, feminine shape to their bodies.

So now that you have your very own adjustable kettlebell it's time to use it.
