Types of Weight Belts We Offer

Leather Weight Belts

Leather weight belts are the gold standard for serious weightlifters. Crafted from premium, genuine sole leather, these belts offer unmatched durability and support. Our leather belts are ideal for powerlifting, bodybuilding, and general weight training. With features like beveled edges for comfort and nickel-plated rivets for strength, our leather weight belts provide maximum stability during heavy lifts. Choose from single-layer designs for flexibility or double-layer options for increased rigidity. These belts are available in both treated and untreated leather finishes, catering to different preferences for feel and appearance.

Nylon Weight Belts

For athletes who prefer a lighter, more flexible option, our nylon weight belts are a perfect choice. Constructed from heavy-duty nylon webbing, these belts offer a comfortable fit while maintaining excellent support. They are ideal for CrossFit, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and general fitness routines. Our nylon belts feature adjustable Velcro closures and stainless steel buckles, allowing for a customized fit and quick adjustments during workouts. The ergonomic, contoured design ensures even pressure distribution across the core, reducing the risk of injuries.

Powerlifting and Competition Belts

Designed for the heaviest lifts, our powerlifting and competition belts meet strict standards for thickness and support, making them a top choice for competitive lifters. These belts feature a wider back for added stability and are crafted from thick, premium-grade leather for maximum support. Choose from single-prong, double-prong, or lever closure options, each providing a secure fit that prevents the belt from slipping during lifts. Our competition belts are USPA-approved and built to withstand the demands of professional powerlifting.

Types of Head Harnesses We Offer

Leather Head Harnesses

Our leather head harnesses are crafted from high-quality, treated or untreated leather, offering durability and a secure fit. These harnesses are designed to accommodate heavy weight loads, making them ideal for athletes looking to build neck strength for sports performance or injury prevention. The interior is padded with either sheepskin or neoprene for added comfort, while reinforced stitching and nickel-plated hardware ensure long-lasting use. The adjustable buckle allows for a custom fit, making it easy to tailor the harness to different head sizes.

Nylon Head Harnesses

For those who prefer a lightweight and versatile option, our nylon head harnesses deliver exceptional performance. Made from durable nylon webbing, these harnesses are strong yet comfortable, perfect for progressive neck training. The adjustable Velcro straps provide a snug, secure fit, while the padded interior prevents chafing during exercises. Each harness includes heavy-duty D-rings and a 23-inch steel chain, allowing users to attach weight plates or kettlebells for added resistance. This design is ideal for athletes who want a compact, portable solution for neck strengthening exercises.

Benefits of Using Weight Belts and Head Harnesses

Weight belts are essential for providing stability and reducing the risk of injuries during heavy lifting. By increasing intra-abdominal pressure, these belts help protect the spine and enhance core engagement, allowing you to lift heavier with confidence. Our weight belts cater to various needs, from powerlifting and bodybuilding to general strength training, ensuring that every lifter can find the perfect belt to support their goals.

Head harnesses are valuable tools for building neck and upper back strength, which is crucial for athletes in contact sports. Strengthening the neck muscles can help reduce the risk of concussions and other injuries. Our head harnesses are designed to offer a secure fit and are compatible with a range of resistance types, allowing users to customize their training intensity. Whether you are an athlete looking to enhance neck stability or someone focused on injury prevention, our head harnesses provide the support needed for effective neck exercises.
