ABSTRACT:
A device to increase the user's gripping power and weight training level on isometric weight training equipment is disclosed. An inverted U-shaped cradle is placed over the bar of the weight equipment and the user's hand grips the outside surface of the grip. An endless belt attached to the bottom edge of the grip through a slot passes behind the user's wrist to provide reinforcement and increase the hand and finger's grip. The interior and exterior cradle surfaces may be covered with a friction enhancing material which also cushions the contact surfaces of the user's hands.
