How to create 20lb-40lb chain setup for under $80
I am getting ready for my Sheiko program run and I wanted to make sure that I have everything ready before I start the program in a few weeks. 

I don't have chains and wanted to figure out affordable solution since all fitness store charge over $100 for not very flexible setup. 

I found that 5/16in chain for towing is 20ft long and weight 20lb and cost only $36.

So two chains is a perfect solution to have 10lb-20lb per side chain set up.

See image below for reference.

For squat you just throw chain over, if you do it once you get 10lb per side, twice gives you 20lb per side.

For deadlift, I used existing carabiner and nylon bar collar. 

I used scale to weight all the chain options. 
Hope it helps to people who don't have chain set up.  Feel free to ask any questions.

I figured out better option, if you want to work on sticking point it's obviously better to have main weight of the chain on the bottom.  By just using towing hook you can wrap chain around to achieve that effect.

I was able to do the same with carabiner but that's additional cost for some. 

I am very happy to have one more tool in my tool box.
