ABSTRACT:
A variable resistance refillable exercise apparatus includes a generally hollow container having an outer surface and an interior volume, top and bottom generally bulbous end sections and a reduced circumference waist section between the end sections such that the container is generally dumbbell-shaped. A container fill opening is formed in the container extending between the outer surface and interior volume for filling the container with fluids and/or solids, and a cap is provided for removably sealing the container fill opening. A handle extends between and connects the top and bottom generally bulbous end sections, the handle including a gripping device such as finger-shaped depressions for facilitating gripping of the handle. A weight scale is printed on the container, the weight scale including a plurality of generally parallel lines and at least one weight amount marking adjacent the lines, the weight scale facilitating measurement of a specific amount of fluid and/or solids within the container to determine the amount of resistance to lifting the container. Finally, a strap is detachably and adjustably mounted on the container whereby the container may be removably attached to a user of the exercise apparatus.
