Lever Belt Size Guide
To determine your belt size, wrap a measuring tape or string around your waist at the intended belt position, using your navel as a reference point. Make sure to measure while wearing your typical workout clothes. Pull the string tight and brace your core as you would when lifting. Measure the circumference and match it to the sizing chart.
The belt should fit tightly to be effective.

ELITE-CLASS TRAINING BELT
Engineered for heavy-duty powerlifting and strongman training, The 13mm Extra Stiff Belt is our most supportive belt yet. Developed in collaboration with world-class powerlifter Tom Martin, its design ensures you have maximum support while still being comfortable to wear. The lever mechanism means that the Extra Stiff Belt is easy to take on and off between your sets.
The belt uses the same base design as our 13mm lever belts but includes a reinforced centre made from 3mm thick composite material. This means a higher level of stiffness and support – perfect for elite lifters, or those who just prefer a stiffer belt.
USE WITH OUR RIOT LEVER BUCKLE
Each belt is designed to be used with our regular Riot lever buckles (if you bought your belt before November 2024, you will need to use a long pin buckle). Our Riot buckles are built to last, even under the most strenuous use. Many strength athletes use this belt for 400kg+ deadlifts and squats – which is why we offer a lifetime performance warranty for all Riot buckles.

FAQ
Does the belt come with a buckle?

How do I prepare my new belt for its first use?
Breaking in your belt is simple. First, fasten it using the lever buckle and let it sit for a period of one to two days. This helps to shape the belt into a more circular form. Following this, wear the belt as you normally would, allowing it to mould to the contours of your body.
Can I use this belt in competitions?
Yes, this belt is IPF approved, making it suitable for both training and competitive events. It’s also popular with bodybuilders and strong(wo)men.
