OP you could wear ankle weights on yourself. Or look at body worn weights. You could up the weight and wind resistance easily with more accessories. Put a bar bag on & one of the triangular frame bags. If you want to spend a bit more add a Carradice SQR block and larger bag behind your saddle & fill them with marbles or fishing shot/weights.
Maybe have an outer jacket with stud or velcro at the neck & just hook the zip in at the bottom, instant parachute effect.

or find a fat person with decent balance & grippy thighs and ride everywhere with them on your shoulders

Grab a water bottle fill it with pennies in it stick it in the seat tube holder.

Alternative: mount my stock Mavic wheels, they weigh a ton.

Grab a water bottle fill it with pennies in it stick it in the seat tube holder.

That would be fatal for me, on account of my addiction
