A powerlifting belt can make a big difference for anyone looking to squat or deadlift from their home gym. It’ll provide support for the lower back and help a lifter stay focused on their position during the movement. One of the newly improved Vulcan 13mm Leather Powerlifting Belts would be an excellent option for anyone on the market because of its durability, solid construction, price, ease of use, and ability to quickly adapt.
Overview
The belt is a bit stiff at first, but by the time you hit your second workout, this belt is ready to go! That’s quicker than some other belt options on the market. After that, it’s easy to adjust and take on and off in between workouts with the single prong lever. In addition, it’s comfortable and extremely flexible because of the material it’s made with.
The overall construction of this belt is impressive. The two primary layers are the suede outer cover and a top grain cow leather inner. These are glued and tightly stitched together in a clean and easy on the eyes manner. Many belts are just stitched and can unravel over time with perspiration. This belt is built to last.
The leather on the inside grips your shirt so there is no slipping and the belt stays in position. The leather is soft and very comfortable to wear.
