A cuff-type device which is placed about the lower forearm and wrist of a wearer and includes a number of attachments allowing the wearer to perform a wide variety of weight-related exercises while placing little or no muscular strain on the hands, fingers and wrists. A first attachment extends from the cuff over the inside of the wearer\s hand and is curved to permit lifting or pulling exercises without significant stress on the fingers or hands. A second attachment provides means for attachment of cable-type exercise devices to the cuff. Threaded openings in each side of the cuff permit threaded attachment of weight-carrying bars.
