         5 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 3  wherein the multiple dispensing units are perpendicular to each other. 
     
     
         6 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 3  wherein a dispensing unit of the multiple dispensing units is located within an inner space formed within one of the end weights. 
     
     
         7 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 3  wherein the housing comprises multiple compartments. 
     
     
         8 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 7  wherein each compartment is fluidly coupled to a unique dispensing unit. 
     
     
         9 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 7  wherein the multiple compartments are of a same volume. 
     
     
         10 . The container and hand weight according to  claim 7  wherein two compartments of the multiple compartments differ from each other by at least one of volume, shape and size. 
     
     
         11 . A method for utilizing a container and hand weight, the method comprises:
 receiving a container and a hand weight that is filled with powder for preparing a drink; wherein the container and hand weight comprises (i) a housing that comprises a handle and end weights that are connected to opposite sides of a handle; and (ii) at least one dispensing unit configured to selectively dispense content from the housing;   consuming the substance until the container and hand weight is free from the substance;   filling the container and hand weight with fluid;   closing the dispensing unit to provide a hand weight; and   using the container and hand weight as a hand weight.   
     
     
         12 . The method according to  claim 11  wherein the at least one dispensing unit is multiple dispensing units. 
     
     
         13 . The method according to  claim 12  wherein the multiple dispensing units are located at opposite sides of the housing. 
     
     
         14 . The method according to  claim 12  wherein the multiple dispensing units are perpendicular to each other. 
     
     
         15 . The method according to  claim 12  wherein a dispensing unit of the multiple dispensing units is located within an inner space formed within one of the end weights. 
     
     
         16 . The method according to  claim 12  wherein the housing comprises multiple compartments. 
     
     
         17 . The method according to  claim 16  wherein each compartment is fluidly coupled to a unique dispensing unit. 
     
     
         18 . The method according to  claim 16  wherein the multiple compartments are of a same volume. 
     
     
         19 . The method according to  claim 16  wherein two compartments of the multiple compartments differ from each other by at least one of volume, shape and size.
