Get some exercise or work on your diet
with these adjustable tension hinges for
refrigerators and cabinets. A great way to
workout in the comfort of your home
without space-hogging personal workout
machines. Just open and close the fridge a
few times.
Adjust the tension on each hinge with
an
easy-to-reach screw. The notch in this
flathead screw points to the current
setting. Turn the screw to 3 o'clock and
the fridge door now requires 25 pounds of
force to open (11.34 kilograms for our
metric friends). Set to 6 o'clock for 50
pounds, 9 o'clock for 75 pounds or 12
o'clock for no resistance at all.
Once the door or cabinet has been pulled
all the way open, the hinge resets, now
requiring an equal amount of force to
close. Exercise both arms simultaneously
by opening and closing cabinets with
double doors. Before long, you'll turn a
simple trip for Cheez Puffs into a muscle-
building experience.
In my own case (my profile is positively
Hitchcockian these days), having to work
just to open the fridge would deter casual
snacking.

To add to the workout, put everything 10 feet into the air requiring you to use a rope ladder in order to access the various cabinets. Not only will you have to use brut strength in order to open the door to the fridge but you will have to climb for your food. |
