An OK BeltReviewed by M. Berry, 2010-03-10
The fact that there is padding between the stitched leather at the back of the belt means it is not legal for powerlifting competition (in the organization I lift in). For general lifting though, it's pretty good - but not the best I've ever used. If I were to buy a belt again, I'd buy one that is 4" wide all the way around.
Not necessaryReviewed by R. Hayward, 2009-10-07
I bought this when I started doing heavy, compound lifts. I
realized that I don't need it. By using the belt it allows your
core muscles to "take a break." I don't want them to take a break.
My core muscles create their own belt.
However, if you are in the market for a belt, or feel you need one,
this one seems well constructed. Mine just hands from a hook on my
wall. It is a decoration at this point.
Used as a back brace.Reviewed by Ann Gaines, 2007-09-23
This belt is three times as comfortable as what's marketed as a
back brace - that has plastic spines and closes with Velcro. It
offers far better support for the lower back and when you sit down
the foam padding is great. Also, it is not huge in size, so you can
wear it under a jacket.
This is second one we have purchased for this use. The last one
lasted more than a year, so it was worth every penny.
Save your lower back, exercise smartly.Reviewed by Noel Pantaleon, 2007-04-16
For lifting heavy weights, a back support belt is a must. This belt fits the back squarely and comfortably. I highly recommend it to bodybuilders and gym enthusiasts who does alot of upper body exercises. I also use it at home when I require heavy lifting of furniture or A/V equipment.
