I have been wanting to start lifting heavier and specifically full body/lower body lifting, usually more of a runner so my back and posture aren't as rigid when lifting so this has helped start to train me to really focus on posture and making sure I am using my muscles correctly without unnecessary strain.

I think I used this belt for a total of 2 months at 4x a week before it's now useless and constantly comes undone.

My son is loving his new weightlifting belt. It’s his first one and he says it has made a huge difference in his lifting!

The fit is great, BUT the velcro does not stick as well anymore after a couple uses.

I'm 6"2', 210, usual waist size is 36. I measured around my naval at 41" (extra insulation) so I bought the xlarge. Wearing it around my naval and below rib cage, the xlarge is just snug when tightened as far as it can go. It's just tight enough to brace against and feel the intra-abdominal pressure, but could stand to be tighter. Wasn't worth paying to exchange so just running it for now for day to day squat/deadlift workouts. So if you have extra mid-section padding like I do, I'd measure with a tap and definitely go tighter than looser and possibly even size down one. Having a gap is better than having it too big and bind before it gets tight enough. Otherwise it is lightweight and works well. Will have to see how the hook and loop holds up.

The Velcro strap makes tightening and releasing a breeze! Comfortable and strong everything you need in a beginner belt

Perfect stability and comfort! Highly recommended!

5"8 150LBS this is a great belt for DL and squats. Doesn't get into your sides like the leather ones and it's not as bulky
