Support your training with a weightlifting belt
Using a weight lifting belt can help you improve your weight-lifting form and technique. Having proper form is important to not only make gains but also to avoid and reduce injuries.
A weightlifting belt from ShapeNation can help ensure you maintain balance and stability throughout your workout.
Most people use a weightlifting belt to prevent back injuries. Some professional weight lifters believe that a weight lift belt supports the lower back during lifting and twisting motions and especially when lifting heavy weights.
At ShapeNation, our weight lift belts are made with top-quality, durable materials to keep you comfortable and safe during every workout. From performing squats, power cleans, deadlifts, or clean and jerks, you’ll have the confidence to know that your back and core are being supported.
Shop our wide range of weight lift belts in top-grade leather, canvas, or nylon for the one you think will help you best reach your goals.
We do have to let you in on a not-so-secret secret… Weightlifting belts do not replace your core strength.
Front to back, your core muscles play a major role in your health and fitness and your weightlifting power. Our gym belt helps support your core, not replace it. No weight lifting belt can replace your core or make up for a weak one. If you have a weak core, start your training there before you try to deadlift 500 pounds.
When to use a training belt?
Let’s say it again, you have to have a strong core first.
Assuming you have a rock-hard, solid core to work with, a weight lift belt can offer extra support to your lumbar spine and core musculature.
Here’s when you may want to consider wearing one:
- Hard strength training: During hard strength training, a weight lifting belt can be a major help. What the training belt does, in addition to providing support, is to help straighten the back. This is important in exercises like the deadlift, squat, etc.
- Back problems: If you have back problems, you may find that a weight lifting belt offers the right amount of lumbar support to relieve stress and pressure. A weightlifting belt supports the back and is nice to have during long workout sessions that focus on the lower back. That being said, the weight lift belt is not a substitute for actually working on your back muscles and core. And if you're experiencing back pain, consult with a doctor to see if there’s a serious reason behind it.
- Special exercises: The squat and deadlift are two exercises where a weight lifting belt is frequently used, and it can be a really good idea. If you like to lift heavy, then it’s extra important, because your back could use the extra support.
How do you find the right size weightlifting belt?
- To see what size fits you, use a flexible tape measure and measure around your body at the navel.
- Make sure the measuring tape is snug.
- Take note of the number and correctly find the weightlifting belt that fits you.
