Abstract: The carrying device comprises a folded material, such as cardboard, which surrounds a pair of weights in a frame. The frame comprises an upwardly extending center panel and two side panels. The side panels are disposed parallel to the center panel and are separated from the center panel by a distance which is slightly larger than the thickness of the weights. The side panels are connected to the center panel by bottom panels. A wooden rod is placed through the center holes of the athletic weights, and anchored into the side of the cardboard frame. A handle located in the frame allows the weights to be easily carried.
