| Abstract: |
This invention relates to weighted exercise garment, particularly a glove having one or more elastic pockets on the outside thereof on a back portion of the glove which covers the back of the hand. One or more weights are inserted into the elastic pockets in order to change the total weight of the exercise glove, and can be secured in the pockets. A further aspect of the present invention relates to an exercise garment having a unique closure utilizing releasable contact fasteners, which closure functions to secure the weights in the pockets and secure the garment to the wearer's body. In a preferred embodiment, a row of pockets is employed, and the closure is used to simultaneously open or close all of the pockets. The invention is advantageous in that it allows the wearer to conveniently change the amount of weight carried in the exercise garment.
