Abstract: Glove that provides integrated support for the hand and wrist of a person engaging in an activity such as weightlifting. The glove has a body with front and back sides that overlie the palm and back of the hand, finger sleeves extending from the upper portion of the body, and a thumb sleeve extending from the front side of the body. A supporting wrap has a palm section that is affixed to and substantially coextensive with the front side of the body, a thumb piece that extends from the palm section and is affixed to one side of the thumb sleeve, and a strap that extends laterally from the thumb side of the palm section and is wrapped about the wrist and a portion of the palm section that overlies the wrist.

Abstract: Weight lifting strap which is looped around the wrist and wrapped in helical fashion about a weight lifting bar or the like and gripped by the hand with opposite sides of the strap facing the bar and the hand, and the strap being fabricated of a woven material with rubberized strands on the side of the strap which faces the bar.

Abstract: A hand grip for use in the self-exercise of hand, wrist and forearm muscles. A pair of pivot elements are mounted about a common pin for pivotal back and forth movement so that the head ends of the elements move together and apart. A force resistance elastomeric member having an interior cavity is releasably mounted on the head ends. Forces applied by the user in repetitively squeezing handles together cause the head ends to move apart against the yieldable resistance of the member. The member's elastic memory causes the elements to pivot back as the user releases his or her grip. A slot in the elastomeric member through which the head ends are mounted enables easy interchange between members of different elastic strengths to provide for a wide range of force resistances.

Abstract: A glove for wearing on a user's hand to grip an object, such as a barbell. The glove has a palm side which carries a plurality of pads that have gripping surfaces. The pads are positioned in spaced-apart relationship and connected together by a flexible connecting layer. The connecting layer is sufficiently thinner than the pads to allow the glove and user's hand to be comfortably curled about and uncurled from a object while enabling a secure grip. Valleys between the pads serve to recess the connecting layer below the gripping surfaces.
