Add stability to your lifts with the REP® USA Premium Leather Lifting Belt. A lifting belt acts as a tool to increase intra-abdominal pressure by giving your core muscles something to brace against as the abdominal wall expands. This added stability is why most athletes can lift more with a belt than without. These belts are handmade in the USA using the highest quality, full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather from American cattle. This type of leather is known for its durability, strength, natural beauty, and unique patina. The belt features a single-prong, stainless-steel buckle with a seamless roller for quick and easy adjustments. The rivets are nickel-plated brass. The belt's slightly roughed interior lining provides some "stick" so it stays in place and doesn't slide around.
All three logos -- two REP logos and one mountain logo -- are debossed for a textured, high-end look and feel. The belt's specifications comply with USAPL and IPF competition standards. The REP® USA Premium Leather Lifting Belt is available in brown or black and in sizes S-XXXL. To select the correct size belt, measure the size of your waist – the circumference where you want to wear the belt -- while you’re in your workout clothing. Generally, you want to center the belt over your belly button. If your measurements fall in between sizes, go with the smaller option. Belt sizes are as follows: small (25-35”), medium (30-40”), large (35-45”), x-large (40-50”), xx-large (45-55”), and xxx-large (50-60”). This belt pairs perfectly with the REP® USA Leather Utility Loop. These leather lifting are handmade by a veteran-owned, US-based small business.

You don’t need to yank on your belt like a corset. A too-tight belt can actually inhibit your ability to fully expand your torso to create tension. The belt should fit snugly as you brace, but not be overly tight before you brace. The purpose of a lifting belt is to provide a cue for you to brace against – internally.
The vegetable tanning process is a very old, very reliable method that produces a much more versatile piece of leather than some of the more modern processes. The hides are tumbled in drums to soften and remove the hair before being soaked, sometimes for months, in fats and oils called "tanning liquors," which give the leather its durability and its propensity to patina so beautifully. This is one of the more underrated aspects of leather, especially pieces designed to be used as tools like these belts. The aging of the piece is symbolic of the progress and maturation you’ll experience in your lifting career; over the years, the leather will change and shape to your body and movements. Our belt manufacturer hand cuts, oils, and (if needed) dyes each piece in house. This allows us to control the product more finely instead of just slicing stuff up and throwing some suede on both sides.
The leather should be oiled and conditioned to prevent it from drying out over time.
