LPT: Gym closes and don’t want to spend an obscene amount on weights? Look into sand and buckets. Much cheaper.

Productivity

Went to Lowe’s yesterday and was able to get 3 50lbs bags of sand plus a few buckets for around $15. If you have a scale, you can adjust the weights of the buckets of sand easily.

Did I just get told to make an adult sandpit in my basement?.... I'll me right back.

Or you could do jailhouse style and fill heavy duty plastic bags with water and use those as weights.
