Homemade gymnastics equipment

Postby WhoCaresWins » Sat Sep 27, 2008 2:21 pm

I have been trying out some gymnastics exercises. I made some parallettes to use for L-Sits, Planche work etc.
Very easy to make using plastic waste pipe.

I've had quite a bit of bother making gymnastic rings. I finally managed to make these today after lots of trial and error. I want to buy some proper ones, but they are going to cost £46 minimum (and I am broke!). I haven't tried them out yet, but I think they will do fine!

Nice work. I've seen a larger version of those parallettes on sale for a crazy sum of money (http://www.lebertequalizer.com/index.htm). Plastic waste pipe seems a better way to go :)
