🎗️ Lifting Belts

A lifting belt increases intra-abdominal pressure and gives your spine more stability under heavy squats, cleans and pulls. In weightlifting, more flexible belts are popular because they don’t restrict athleticism.

Buying guide

  • Material: Nylon is flexible and comfortable — often preferred in weightlifting. Leather is stiffer and supports the most.
  • Width: Usually 10 cm. Some weightlifting belts taper at the front for more freedom of movement.
  • Closure: Hook-and-loop (fast), prong (classic) or lever (firm and repeatable).
