ZULUL WARRIAS PREPARING FOR ACTION

In Africa, you don't sound African, where in Africa bra.im from South Africa, we never say we are from Africa, only outsiders say that. 😈😆

Look up Kulbila_Fitness on instagram.

Hey!! The reason I didn't use a release agent on the buckets was that I didn't want the dumbbells to be smooth. This is why I mixed the concrete in the original container. Closer to the end you can see a few closeups, and the sides look scratched up and more rugged which I think is a much cooler look than a smooth cast of a brand new bucket. Those same scratches and ridges make it extremely difficult if not impossible to demold without destroying the container.

Motor oil works also

WD40 too

I will have to try this then, cause apparently everyone is buying these disposable buckets out.

I recommend Vaseline because it won't run like baby oil.

Thanks for ProTip bro. You save me some bucket.

You basically summed it up :)

If you put some nails and concrete on that pipe it will make it stronger I believe but thanks for your insight

do you think a 3/4 inch emt conduit will be strong enough. Home Depot has 1 inch x 10 ft. but I dont need all of that to make a pair

D H depends on the weight. I would think up to 35lbs should be fine. I’m thinking of making 45 lbs in 1”

can schedule 80 handle 50 lb concrete dumbbells? If i stick the schedule 80 pvc pipe into the bucket of concrete I don't need to drill holes in and put screws in?

as you cant tell the bigger ones are heavier...

@@andreysilva8418 LoL

that's fucking hilarious

tbh that's just more efficient, the exact weight doesn't really matter (and if it does you can always go check your strength in a gym with proper dumbbells)

Happy to help!

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad it was helpful!

That is a great a idea not gonna lie, very clever

THATS A MILLION DOLLAR IDEA WHY WOULD YOU POST IT IN A KZfaq COMMENT😂😂

A tally not a bad idea. Hahaha you could go themed and get real creative with that.

Seriously, can we just order some for cheap from you

I was in the process of stealing ur business plan and putting into work since it was going to be very cheap i decided to intelligent plan for all types of licenses tho u will not be able to use them for liability issues 🙃

Awesome! Thank you!

Yes the killuminatii want to Have heart attacks from their covid moonshots because we've spent all out food money on overpriced weights

Thanks :)

Thank you :)

Thanks! a great way to make them indestructible without making them look ugly is coating the concrete with LINE-X. Just remember to wait for all the moisture to leave the concrete before spraying (3-4 days)

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm-neither hot nor cold-I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. (Revelation 3:15-18) you cannot live for this world and not try to stop sinning (being cold) and only believing in God(hot) without turning from sin or sinning and saying God will forgive you after or not read the Bible, pray, worship/obeying God. Which is being a lukewarm. If we are neither cold or hot, God will spit us out his mouth. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 Proverbs 11:2 “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. ” Proverbs 16:5 “The LORD detests all the proud of heart. Be sure of this: They will not go unpunished. Proverbs 16:18 “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before before a fall. Genesis 1:26-27 - “Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. Jesus is coming back soon!! Repent and believe!! Jesus loves you and wants a relationship with you 🫶🏽 Plis read revelation 3:15-18 on google if you don’t have a Bible. (Exodus 20:7) You shall not invoke the name of the LORD, your God, in vain. Please don’t use Gods name in vain, it’s dangerous Has a nation ever changed its gods? (Yet they are not gods at all.) But my people have exchanged their glorious God for worthless idols. Jeremiah 2:11) having idols of any kind isn’t good 🙅‍♀️ Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods? Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know mine hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is The LORD. (Jeremiah 16:20) HAVING IDOLS IS A SIN JEREMIAH 16:20 , JEREMIAH 2:11 Revelation 3:15-18 explains that we can’t be cold and hot at the same time which is being a lukewarm. In other words, if we are hot, which is really repenting and turning from sin) if we are cold we just completely don’t really follow God. If we mix those together it makes a lukewarm which they will be spat out Gods mouth and won’t inherit the kingdom of heaven. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.John 3:16. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13 Romans 8:38-39 .. John 3:16 .. Revelation 3:15-18 Corinthians 6:9.. John 15:13 Psalms 23:4 Psalms 23:4 || Yea, though I walk through The Valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; rod and thy staff they comfort me. Deuteronomy 31:8. The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 JESUS IS COMING BACK SOON!!REPENT BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!🫶🏽🫶🏽 ✝️❣️…😊😊

Good luck!

As long as you get up the next day and make em, nothing to worry about! 💪😎

Good luck!!

What kind of paint did you use and how is it holding up? You posted this 8 months ago.

Can u give us any updates???

C'mon it's been a year

GAS PIPE . FORGET plaSTIC

Thanks!

You're welcome!

Thanks, you too man :)

How would you do that?

Thanks! Technically it will be a little bit heavier but its unnoticeable. Maybe by a few grams

@@GlobMarble thank you for the answer!

@mr system yes I did

asys t How did it go?

@@angelayala7922 he was pressing it then one block land on his head

You need to add a release agent like oil to stop the plastic from bonding to the concrete. Also the main reason I had to cut them out was because I mixed the concrete in the same bucket which I casted in. This created a bunch of scratches inside my buckets which gripped onto the concrete. Instead you should do all of your mixing in a separate "mixing bucket" and pour it into a fresh casting bucket to reuse them :)

That's a great idea, I never knew flex seal was so cheap

Where do you get flex seal at that price?

I erred That was 32oz can for $30 Oh well.

@@bodiddley7404 oh man .... I was so looking forward to it.

@@bodiddley7404 look for liquid plasti-dip instead of flex seal. plasti-dip is usually sold in spray cans, but the liquid form might work better for this. typically people use the liquid kind to dip tool handles to add a rubber like grip to them, but I dont see why it wouldnt work on these weights if you completely encased the concrete in it.

That was the original plan but these nails ended up being cheaper :)

Thanks for watching!

Dude, its a dumbbell, not a laboratory standard. Close enough is good enough. :)

@@tonydiethelm8980 yeah you’re muscles won’t notice the 0.5lbs difference lol

Take approximately 19 pounds of cement and 1 litre of water

@@yashkelaskar8943 1 liter of water weighs 2.2 lbs.

@@mckenziekeith7434 thats why he said approximately

@@yashkelaskar8943 I thought the water would evaporate and eventually 19 pound of cement + 1 litre of water would weight 19 pounds.

Make sure to mix only half since you'll be curing one side at a time.

Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks! Any home depot or Lowes location

home depot has it for $4.20 I bought the high strength mixture I'm gonna build this tmrw can't wait

I just used plastic bags and then an extremely large amount of duct tape to pretty good effect. My weights were made of 'Portland cement' (plaster of Paris plus sand) which is weaker than normal cement but I don't baby them and they haven't broken yet after a year or so, the thick duct tape layer seems to work pretty well for protecting them. Ugly but functional :)

Go for it!

No problem! :)

I doubt it, I have a 35 lb one, but to be on the safe side you can use EMT Conduit instead of pvc :)

@@GlobMarble would steel pipe work?

@@GlobMarble thank you

@@python9657 I was thinking the same thing but he didn't reply. I would like to know myself cause it should be a lot better than the PVC.

Glad you liked it!

You can get it out without oil. Plastic wont stick to concrete. I had to break it because of the ridges and scratches from mixing inside the bucket. No release agent would help in demolding them

@@GlobMarble Couldn't you just pour the mixed cement into the molds to reuse them, and designate a container for mixing?

When do I apply it during this process?

@@miguelbotto2849 before fill concret , apply oil inside of the container .

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks!!

quick question, I honestly don't know who to ask about concrete stuff, but is it better if I use large metal screws instead of the metal nails he used because it gives it more surface area or will that weaken the dumbbell

Nails that huge have a lot of thermal capacity he did it right

You would waste a lot more gas doing it that way tho

τι λες ρε τσομπανη ασχετε

Easy! Get much thinner nails, but still long enough to almost stretch the whole distance of the bucket. Use a hammer to nail them in. You will need much more nails, closer to 12 nails for one bar instead of 4.

@@GlobMarble just take a cutting player to hold the nail and heat it till hot and insert it, it will slice in like butter, immediately pour water too cool it... Problem fixed...

Lbs

Good luck!!

Thanks! :)

Maybe so! Still, I haven't had any problems with mine yet :)

It would be interesting if you left the bucket on somehow, trimmed it and left them “plastic encased”.

@@garnetsteen that would be a great idea

i like the idea but can u get the nail to fit in as tightly? or would that be a none issue with it being in concrete?

Might as well go rigid conduit so you never have to worry

Good luck!!

lol you got me there :) I meant to say walls

Awesome! Thank you!

Great!! if you like to drop weights after using them, you can give it a good double coating of flex seal to make these indestructible :)

Glad you enjoyed it!
