An ergonomic hand grip for use when exercising such as walking or running and with a wide variety of devices and equipment such as ski poles and bicycle handlebars. In a basic illustrated form, as shown in the figure, the grip has an elongated base (12) that is contoured so that, when gripped, the thumb is bent and the hand and wrist are in a neutral position. In particular, a thumb support (18) is provided adjacent to one end (14) of the base to position and support the thumb in the bent position. The base is also provided with suitable depressions (26) and/or recessed areas to receive enlarged portions of the gripping hand to cause the knuckles to be in generally linear alignment. Further, the end (16) of the base opposite the thumb support is reduced in size to allow disproportionately more contraction of the lowermost two fingers, and primarily the lowermost or little finger. |
