Best for Competitive lifters
If you are looking for the best belt on the market with the maximum support possible, then look no further. The SBD 13mm Belt is the gold standard for a reason, quick adjustments and unmatched support.
Best for most lifters
An amazing belt for any lifter. It'll provide you with almost all the support of a 13mm belt, but with quicker break-in period and slightly more comfortable in the long run. The lever ensures you can get it as tight as you want, but does require tools to adjust size. If you often want a different tightness for your belt for different lifts then you may want to look at the SBD for convenience.
Best for Smaller Competitive Lifters
The same quick adjustment lever as the original but with a softer, more flexible, more comfortable 10mm leather. Unless you know you want the 13mm, we recommend going with the 10mm. It'll break in quicker and still give you tons of support.
Best for Smaller Lifters / Short Torsos
A different option for those that find a standard leather belt too pinchy. The Wahlanders Soft Core belt features a softer foam core sandwiched in leather. This allows the belt to give you a much more comfortable fit and move more easily with your body. The unique quick release buckle takes a bit of practice but you can get it very tight in time.
Lifting Belts
Here you will find a selection of belts for powerlifting, weightlifting, strongman, strongwoman, or general fitness. Many of these belts are approved by the International Powerlifting Federation. You can choose from a wide variety of lifting belts, such as the SBD Belt. A thick, secure, and tight powerlifting belt, the SBD belt features a patented quick-release lever that allows you to tighten or loosen the belt when engaging it rapidly.
We also have a few other powerlifting belts featuring other buckle options from brands such as Wahlanders and Inzer Advance Designs. However, the lever powerlifting belts from Inzer Advance Designs and the SBD Apparel are much more popular thanks to their individually patented buckles that allow for a very tight fit with minimal effort.
We also carry a Rehband Back Support that is popular among strongmen and strongwomen. Many strongmen and strongwomen wear this neoprene belt under a thicker standard lifting belt.
A lifting belt is designed to help you brace better and create optimal intra-abdominal pressure while lifting weights. This will help protect you from injury as well as improve performance.
A lifting belt is worn around the midsection, normally at belly button height. It should be worn quite tight, but not so tight as to make it hard to breathe into your mid section and brace against the belt.
