My Weight Project
I made a three pound weight for my project. I did this by getting putting filling a water bottle with sand. This would normally cost $20-$25 but I was able to make it for about a dollar. I made this weight to see how much it would cost to make it versus what you pay for it. I tried to make the weight as cheap as possible to see the difference in price.
In order to make the weight I got water bottle and drank all the water. Then I went to freedom park and filled it with sand. I made this weight to see the price difference between the weight I made and if you bought it made. I manage to make this weight for a dollar versus a already made weight that would cost $20-$25 online. That leaves a $19-$24 price differnce between these weights.
Overall I had a good experince making this weight. This showed me there are alternatives to buying expensive exercise equipment. I think this is important because for people who dont have money to buy equipment to exercise. They can instead make it themselve for a cheaper alternative. This weight can also be used for mutiple differnt things. For example someone who was in a accident they can used this for their recovery or someone can use it as a light weight when they are running. Overall I think that it is important for someone to know how to make their own weight.
