ABSTRACT:
A martial arts training glove that provides protection of the trainee's hand from possible hurt during hand strike exercises, including a glove body, wherein the finger and thumb receptacles are truncated. The glove body is provided with one or more sealed compartments which are filled to more-or-less about 95% capacity with loose grains, preferably spherical and nondeformable grains such as steel shot. The compartments are located with respect to the glove body so that the grains within the compartments protect the trainee's hand from hand strikes, particularly the five common martial arts hand strikes enumerated hereinabove. The preferred compartment locations are (with respect to a hand fitted thereinside): the heel of the palm, the bottom of the hand, the front and back of the index and near index knuckles, and the index finger metacarpus bone. Preferably, the compartments are located and sized so that there is provided an a balanced weight distribution symmetry of the grains with respect to the glove body which thereby allows for hand movements without impairment. A preferred material for the glove body is leather.
