A lever belt is a type of lifting belt with a lever mechanism that allows for quick and secure tightening and loosening.

Lever weightlifting belts are designed to provide extra support and stability during heavy lifts, such as squats, deadlifts, and bench presses. A few lever belt benefits include helping you maintain proper form, protecting the lower back, and increasing intra-abdominal pressure, which enhances core stability and overall lifting performance.

Use a lever belt during heavy compound lifts like squats, deadlifts, and presses—typically at 80% or more of your max. It's great for max effort lifts, low-rep, high-intensity work, and injury prevention. Skip it for lighter weights and accessory exercises to build core strength naturally.

A lever belt should be tight enough to support your core and back but not so tight that it restricts breathing or movement.

A prong lifting belt uses a traditional buckle to secure it, allowing for easier micro-adjustments. A lever lifting belt features a lever mechanism for quick tightening and loosening, offering a consistent fit.

10mm lever belts offer solid support while being more flexible and comfortable. It's ideal for most lifters, providing a balance of stability without feeling too stiff. 13mm lever belts provide maximum support with a thicker design, often favored by powerlifters. It can feel stiffer and take longer to break in.
