The benefits of using a weightlifting belt is to increase intra-abdominal pressure, or pressure in your abdomen during heavy or strenuous lifting.

This pressure creates a rigid core, stabilizing your spine and helping increase your maximum power. This pressure also keeps your spine from collapsing under heavy weight. You can create your own intra-abdominal pressure by breathing in, holding your breath and pushing out with your stomach muscles, a move called the Valsalva manoeuvre.

The weight belt gives your stomach something to push against, increasing your intra-abdominal pressure, which minimises back injuries and hernias.

Our 6 Inch Leather Weight Lifting Belt will give you more support on your lumbar area due to the wider width.

Like most forms of exercise, the Leather Weightlifting Belt has many potential benefits for spinal health, but also has the potential to create or worsen back injuries.

• Extending or flexing the back muscles against resistance (the weight) during weightlifting and bodybuilding may result in a number of injuries, including muscle strain and ligament injury
• Certain types of weightlifting exercises can be particularly stressful to the joints and soft tissues, such as:
  • Clean-and-jerk
  • Dead-lift
  • Snatch
  • Squats
