Multifunctional Lumbar Support Harness

Abstract

A multifunctional lumbar support harness makes uses lumbar support belt, a torso support vest, multiple weight-support fasteners, and a weight support peg to enable a user to affix weights to their body while exercising. The lumbar support belt wraps around the user's lumbar region and increases intra-abdominal pressure that supports and stabilizes the user. The torso support vest braces the user's upper body during workouts. The lumbar support belt is mounted around a waist-bracing portion of the torso support vest so that the two components work in concert to form a harness for the user's entire torso. The weight-support fasteners are fastening mechanisms that enable the user to attach exercise equipment to the exterior of the torso support vest. The weight-bearing peg is a cylinder that is mounted onto the back of the torso support vest that enables the user to affix weight plates to their torso.
