ABSTRACT:
An exercise apparatus (302) for strapping weights (8) to a user's hand (1). The exercise apparatus may be used in water for swimming or on land for jogging or other exercise. A weight is inserted into a pocket (6) on a support (3) for placement on the backhand portion (14) of the user's hand. A strap (310) is mounted across the pocket to retain the weight in position. The strap includes a first band (332) having free ends (334, 336) for wrapping around the user's metacarpus. An auxiliary band (342) extends at an angle from the first band toward and around the inside of the user's wrist. The weight is removable from the pocket to permit variability of the amount of weight carried in proportion to desired muscle stress. The exercise apparatus may include a plurality of pockets for insertion of a plurality of weights. Adjacent fingers (318) are connected by webbing (370).
