A weight strap for encircling the leg of a horse substantially above the fetlock and below the knee or hock. The strap includes two interattachable ends. Attachment is preferably accomplished by hook and loop fasteners. The strap comprises a nylon outer side and a neoprene inner side with a resilient foamed or expanded plastic disposed therebetween. Both the upper edge and the lower edge are padded with a foamed or expanded plastic rim. The strap is weighted by either a flexible, heavy rubber or lead insert disposed within the strap between the inner and outer sides, or one or more weights of different mass values removably and interchangeably fitted to the outer side of the strap. Both methods of adding weight to the strap may be employed in a single strap.
