100/10 Recommend
This belt makes my lifts so much easier!!It was insane using this for the first time, now when using normal belts at the gym it feels like it does nothing.The packaging was amazing.The belt takes awhile to break in but for me personally it wasn’t painful.This belt will last you a life time. Don’t even bother buying a “cheaper” belt because you will have to buy more. If you get this belt you will never have to buy another again. I got a Medium size and that fits my size Small boyfriend and Size Large me easily and if we ever change weight/ gain muscle/ lose weight. We will still have enough room in this belt which is AMAZING.... Show more

Amazing Feel
I can sincerely say that this belt is the best belt I have ever worn. And I have tried four other brands. What I was pleasantly surprised at was that it didn't require "wearing in". Although it was stiff and supportive it fitted like a glove the first moment I put it on and was comfortable. Other belts I have worn have required a couple of months of wear before they became comfortable. I recommend this belt to everyone now.... Show more

Awesome Powerbuilding Belt SSS+
Especially for 6"+ height people, I've noticed that the SBD Powerlifting Belt assists in maintaining a neutral spine especially when squatting ATG and going for depth l. I recently got this as a present and heard the good reviews online.Honestly do not waste your money in buying any other belt BUT this one!This belt will last you for ages and has an excellent lever system that requires minimal energy expenditure to braise against.10/10....

Elite superb belt
Belt raised my lifts by a good 10% after using it for a week. Super high quality and provides immense stability. Only issue is the belt bleeds red dye from the inside, so your clothes get stained. Don’t know if it’s intended to do so but it sure is annoying :/ .... Show more

Excellent belt
Love this belt. Looks the part and the difference is night and day from my old 10mm lever belt I got from ebay. Belt is very stiff, excellent to brace against, did not take long at all to adjust to. Smells nice too (for now).Constructed very well too. Feels like it will last for years.Only complaint is the neck pain from looking down on everyone in my gym who doesn't have an SBD belt (just kidding 😆).... Show more

Satisfied
Absolutely solid belt. For a bloke as large as myself I was in need of a heavy duty belt and this definitely provides. Took it along to a squatting session at the gym and it fit perfectly . Thank you also to the team for getting it out to me very quickly. Thank you... Show more

SBD POWERLIFTING BELT
I used to use a Schiek belt since 2014. The leather finally tore while doing deadlifts in 2021. I did some research on you tube and found SBD, INVER, BEST, PIONEER as the main ones. SBD obviously had the lever but Pioneer recently made a similar lever that fits all common lever belts. The only disadvantage to that is it has limited range (in my opinion). I also saw reviews on YouTube for pioneer, inver and SBD. In the end because the supplier ran out of stock for INVER, I decided to pay extra for the SBD.Comparing my old leather belt to the SBD- there is no comparison. The old belt was thin and had padding at the back. SBD is all round leather (with suede on both sides). You actually feel that the belt is protecting you. Two days ago I went 180kg on good-mornings. ... MoreI used to use a Schiek belt since 2014. The leather finally tore while doing deadlifts in 2021.

With the old belt, doing 140kg was the limit. With SBD, the body knows you are protected and it goes further. Similarly on the squats, 260kgs is no problem now. Deadlifts - you have to wear it a bit above because it’s not broken in yet but still you feel the difference at once.I highly recommend SBD’s powerlifting belt for anyone who is serious about lifting weights....

The BEST Lifting Belt
The SBD Belt is, without a shadow of a doubt, the BEST quality lifting belt out there right now. The buckle is insanely sturdy, and allows it to clip into different holes, on-the-fly - as opposed to others that have to screw into one spot. Brilliant, amazing belt - that is all I have to say....

Who needs R.M Williams?
I hate belts. Weight belts kill my ribs. They look bad with jeans too (that middle-aged man at my gym the thinks it’s okay to wear jeans, it’s never okay.)...And knowing I was going to have to suffer through “breaking in” my new SBD belt, as slick as it looks I was scared to try it.Well. I don’t know if it’s because I felt 2kewl4skool and I was living out my meathead fantasies in my PL sleeves and belt BUT I WAS HITTING PBS FOR REPS!! I’m talking “I’m beginning to feel like a rep god” reps. Wasn’t even hurting, belt was stiff but not uncomfortably bone breaking like others I’ve tried.I’m excited to wear it again now I’ve finally boarded the gains trainnnnnnn.5 stars. Worth the money. Don’t bother getting a cheaper one if you’re umming and ahhing. This ones built ... MoreI hate belts. Weight belts kill my ribs.
