ABSTRACT:
A multi-position grip system for a weight machine, barbells or the like includes a pair of circular rings, rotatably intercoupled by a bar and axially coupled with a pair of weight-supporting bars fitted with weights, each ring being concentrically and rotatably coupled with a pair of arcuate members in a manner to provide multiple axes for rotation of a handgrip spanning the ends of the inner arcuate member. The grip system may be adapted for use with a bench or weight machine by omitting the weight-supporting bars, substituting additional hemiarcuate members for the rings, and coupling the weight machine with the center bar. A pulleybar may be substituted for the center bar. Members having about a 90.degree. arc may be employed for use with a weight machine by concentrically and rotatably coupling them end-to-end.
