Squat exercise hook harness
First Claim
1. A squat exercise hook harness, comprising:
- a pair of generally parallel aligned bars, said aligned bars being interconnected and spaced by a joining member so as to accommodate the neck of a person therebetween;
said aligned bars each including bends therein that define a base section and a chest section thereof, said chest sections being spaced by said base sections from said joining member and defining an obtuse angle in combination with said base sections, and further wherein said base sections define a base plane;
an upturned portion at each free end of said chest sections; and
a T-member having a leg and a cross bar connected to a first end of said leg and a second end of said leg connected to a midpoint of said joining member, wherein said T-member extends from said joining member in an inverted fashion and defines an angle between the range of 60 degrees to 120 degrees with said base plane.

Abstract
A squat exercising hook harness comprising a pair of generally parallel aligned bars interconnected and spaced by a joining member to accommodate the neck of a person therebetween. The aligned bars each include bends therein that define a base section and a chest section. The chest sections are spaced by the base sections from the joining member. The base sections define a base plane and the chest sections form an obtuse angle in combination with the base sections. Each free end of the chest sections has an upturned portion at the end. A T-member has a leg and a cross bar connected to a first end of the leg. A second end of the leg is connected to a midpoint of the joining member so that the T-member extends from the joining member in an inverted fashion and defines an angle between the range of 60 degrees to 120 degrees with the base plane.

14. A squat exercise hook harness for assisting a wearer with performing leg squats with a resistive load, comprising:
-
a unitary frame comprising a pair of interconnected aligned bars, each having a chest segment adapted to extend vertically along the chest of the user and a free end at a lower portion thereof, a base segment extending rearwardly from an upper portion of the chest segment and adapted to extend over the user'"'"'s shoulders, and the frame further comprising a load supporting member connected to and extending transversely of the base segments, the load supporting member adapted to rest on the user'"'"'s upper shoulders;
a hook at each free end adapted to support the resistive load; and
wherein the chest segments, the base segments and the load supporting member are so shaped and positioned with respect to each other that the resistive load mounted to the hooks on each free end is supported by the load supporting member on the user'"'"'s upper shoulders without placing strain on the neck of the user. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
