World Smallest Dumbbell

April 16, 2008 – 6:55 pm

According to scientists, an oxygen atom is one of the smallest dumbbells in physics. I have discovered something just as amazing, but unlike an oxygen atom I can hold this small dumbbell between my two fingers. The best part about this dumbbell is that I can use it to exercise my fingers so I can type faster.

Working on my computer everyday is hard work and when I need a break, I do my normal finger stretches to relax my muscles. But if I want to strengthen the muscles in fingers, I performed the equivalent of a leg squat with this dumbbell.

I simply pick up the dumbbell between my thumb and index finger and do three sets of 15 reps. In addition to my regular exercise program, I do these finger exercises three times a week from the comfort of my desk. I think by the end of the year, I’ll be able to do those two fingers push-ups that Sylvester Stallone did in Rocky IV. Wish me luck! “Drago!!!”
