These belts are described as stabilizing the back and core and increasing intra-abdominal pressure, which helps improve bracing during heavy lifts such as squats and deadlifts.
Design elements called out include tapered edges to improve range of motion, beveled internal edges and supple leather to reduce digging, and interior foam padding for added comfort during heavy lifts.
The machine requires adult assembly; some tools are provided. It carries a 1 Year Limited Warranty.
