ABSTRACT:
A dumbbell made of heavy material has a central bar, weight knobs at opposite ends of the bar and a guard-handle spaced from the bar a distance to allow the insertion of a user's fingers between the guard-handle and the bar, the bar, weight knobs, and guard-handle being one piece. Preferably, the dumbbell is made of cast iron and coated with a resilient coating. In another embodiment, the guard handle has a center span with a long reach and a short reach, spaced axially from one another to define a belt-receiving gap.
