Abstract

A weightlifting facilitator strap system, comprising a weightlifting facilitator strap that comprises a first section of handle openings, where a first handle opening of the first section of handle openings is associated with a first extremity of the weightlifting facilitator strap. The weightlifting facilitator strap system further includes a second section of handle openings, where a last handle opening of the second section of handle openings is associated with a second extremity of the weightlifting facilitator strap. The weightlifting facilitator strap system further includes a fastener section located between the first and second section of handle openings, where the fastener section includes a first loop adjacent to the first section of handle openings, a second loop adjacent to the second section of handle openings, and a fastener band located between the first loop and the second loop.

Claims (25)

1 . A weightlifting facilitator strap system, comprising:

a weightlifting facilitator strap that comprises:

a first section of handle openings, wherein a first handle opening of the first section of handle openings is associated with a first extremity of the weightlifting facilitator strap;

a second section of handle openings, wherein a last handle opening of the second section of handle openings is associated with a second extremity of the weightlifting facilitator strap, and wherein the first extremity is on an opposite end of the weightlifting facilitator strap system than the second extremity; and

a fastener section located between the first section of handle openings and the second section of handle openings, wherein the fastener section includes a first loop adjacent to the first section of handle openings, a second loop adjacent to the second section of handle openings, and a fastener band located between the first loop and the second loop, and wherein the weightlifting facilitator strap has a length based on a distance from the first extremity to the second extremity,

wherein the weightlifting facilitator strap is configured to be attached to a weighted dumbbell by a first attachment loop that is formed by inserting the first extremity through the first loop, and wherein the weightlifting facilitator strap is further configured to be attached to the weighted dumbbell by a second attachment loop that is formed by inserting the second extremity through the second loop.

2 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein the first section of handle openings has the first handle opening, a second handle opening adjacent to the first handle opening, and a third handle opening adjacent to the second handle opening.

3 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 2 , wherein the third handle opening is adjacent to the first loop.

4 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 3 , wherein the second section of handle openings has the last handle opening, a second handle opening adjacent to the last handle opening, and a third handle opening adjacent to the second handle opening.

5 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 4 , wherein the third handle opening is adjacent to the second loop.

6 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein the second section of handle openings has the last handle opening, a second handle opening adjacent to the last handle opening, and a third handle opening adjacent to the second handle opening.

7 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 6 , wherein the third handle opening is adjacent to the second loop.

8 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein the fastener band is located substantially equidistant from the first extremity and the second extremity.

9 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein when the weightlifting facilitator strap system is positioned in a substantially straight line along the length, and when the fastener band is in an extended state, the fastener band extends outward from the fastener section in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the substantially straight line.

10 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein when the fastener section is securely attached to a weighted dumbbell, a first section length of the first section remains substantially constant when the first section is under load from the weighted dumbbell.

11 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 10 , and wherein a second section length of the second section remains substantially constant when the second section is under the load from the weighted dumbbell.

12 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 10 , wherein a handle opening of the first section of handle openings has an interior circumference, and wherein the interior circumference is at least a first size such that a weightlifting bar can be inserted through the handle opening.

13 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 12 , wherein a second handle opening of the second section of handle openings has a second interior circumference, and wherein the second interior circumference is at least the first size such that the weightlifting bar can be inserted through the second handle opening.

14 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein a handle opening of the first section of handle openings and a second handle opening of the second section of handle openings are configured to be attached to one or more of an additional strap, gym equipment, and other weight resistance training equipment.

15 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein the weightlifting facilitator strap is further attached to the weighted dumbbell by wrapping the fastener band around a handle of the weighted dumbbell.

16 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 , wherein the weightlifting facilitator strap is made of a non-elastic material.

17 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 1 further comprising:

an additional strap having a series of loops disposed on a first extremity of the additional strap, and having a self-fastener disposed at a second extremity of the additional strap.

18 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 17 , wherein the additional strap is configured to be connected to the first section and the second section by inserting the second extremity through a handle opening of the first section and a second handle opening of the second section.

19 . The weightlifting facilitator strap system of claim 18 , wherein the self-fastener is configured to secure the additional strap to a hand and a wrist of a user.
