ABSTRACT:
A method of use of an exercise device for strengthening a user's targeted muscle, such as a bicep or the like. The device includes a spherical housing having a weighted casing disposed. The housing has a cut-away portion and further has an opening formed therein which are in communication with each other. When the hand of the user is disposed in the opening, a forceful grip is not required during use of the exercise device. Thus the conjunctive use of adjoining muscles is substantially obviated, and the development of the targeted muscle is substantially improved. The user moves the exercise device alternately between a stressed position and an at rest position.
