Power System Stronglift – leather lever lifting belt

Power System Stronglift (product code 3840) is a lifting belt with a quick-release lever buckle, designed for powerlifting and heavy gym training. The belt is made of high-quality, strong suede leather with a non-slip surface and is 10 mm thick. Instead of a regular prong buckle, it has a heavy lever buckle: it pulls the belt firmly tight and opens with a single movement, so you can take the belt off quickly after a set and fasten it again before the next one. According to the manufacturer, the material is soft and comfortable. At Sportlab the belt is available in sizes S/M and L/XL.

Suede leather and double stitching

The belt is built from strong suede leather whose non-slip surface stays in place during training. The edges are finished with double-line stitching that adds durability, and sturdy rivets at the attachment points keep the connection between the buckle and the strap firm even with repeated tightening. The 10 mm thick leather gives the belt the stiffness that powerlifters appreciate in heavy squats and deadlifts. According to the manufacturer, the buckle system is made of rust-proof stainless steel, and the tightness of the belt is easy to adjust.

How to use?

Place the belt around your body so that it sits at the level of your lower back and abdomen, and fasten the buckle in a suitable hole. Tighten the belt so that it fits snugly but still lets you take a deep breath before the lift and brace your midsection against the belt. Opening the lever releases the belt immediately, which makes it convenient to loosen between sets. After training, let the belt air-dry and keep it in a dry place.

Key features

Who is it for?

Stronglift is suitable for powerlifters, weightlifters and anyone doing heavy compound exercises in the gym. The manufacturer lists squats, deadlifts, the clean and jerk, the snatch, bodybuilding and CrossFit-style training as uses. The lever buckle is a good choice for those who want to take the belt off and put it back on quickly between sets without threading the strap through a buckle. Because the belt is stiff and thick, it is intended primarily for heavy lifts rather than light general training.

Sizes and care

The belt is available in two sizes: S/M and L/XL. The manufacturer's size chart determines the size by waist circumference, so before ordering, use a tape measure to measure the circumference where you wear the belt during training and choose the size accordingly. The manufacturer offers the Stronglift belt in red and yellow; the belt weighs about 1 kg. A leather belt stays in good condition longer if you let it air-dry after a sweaty workout and keep it in a dry place. Brand: Power System.
