Abstract: Bootstrap converts any hiking bottle into a safe and long-lasting weightlifting device. It consists of two main components: 1?-1.5? plushed strap with low elasticity and high durability, 0.4? or thicker silicon bumper for bottle bottom. Several embodiments have additional components used as connection items. VELCRO® brand VELSTRETCH® tape is a perfect material for the heavy bottle strap. It is used in industrial applications to withstand multiple expansions/contractions and to minimize shear stress on hands. Thick silicon bottom bumper absorbs stress coming from two bottles collision that is common for such weight lifting exercise. Overall design protects hikers head, hands, and body from injuries. Several embodiments varying aesthetically and in cost are presented. Basic math provided in the background section explains current solutions' failures. The same math lays the path to the bootstrap.
