ABSTRACT:
The thoracic harness disclosed is for particular use in facilitating the performance of squat related exercise by providing superior three dimensional thoracic engagement of resistance forces connectable at opposing points below the axillae or armpits. The thoracic harness functions to uniformly disperse resistance forces three dimensionally about respectively engaged thoracic surfaces to oppose thoracic movements occurring in the user's three dimensional space. The harness includes opposed flexible shoulder scyes joined by a back panel and a releasable frontal strap that are anatomically designed to collectively function to provide maximum three dimensional surface engagement and to enable maximum unrestricted movement of respective thoracic "active" regions. In addition, the harness provides a totally self-maintaining engagement nature that eliminates concern of potential injury and allows maximum exercise concentration. Furthermore, the thoracic harness configuration described can be comfortably used by either male or female by largely avoiding sensitive breast tissues.
