Abstract:
A hand grip for use in exercise by a person, the grip comprising, the combination of a pair of pivot elements, each pivot element having a handle and a head end, the elements being mounted for back-and-forth pivotal movement about an axis which is located between the handles and head ends and in which the head ends move apart when the handles are squeezed together, a force resistant member comprising a deformable wall the wall having an opening which is sized and shaped sufficient to enable the opening to deform for allowing ingress and egress of the head ends through the opening into and from the cavity, the opening having a width which is sufficient to enable back and forth movement of the pivot elements when the person alternatively squeezes the handles together, and the wall having an interior cavity which is sized and shaped sufficient to releasably encapture the head ends, and in which the wall deforms by expanding and applying a resistance force against the head ends as the head ends move apart.
