I'm still a mere novice in terms of my power lifting and strong man career, but I'm after a bit of help with a deadlifting belt.

I currently own 2 belts. Apologies for not embedding the images but can't see the buttons.

This Schiek 6' one one which I use for squats...

And this Rehband one which I use for pretty much everything else...

The problem is the scheik belt is rubbish for deads as I can't get low enough down and it really digs in, and the rehband doesn't really offer much support at all.

I've seen a lot of people using spud belts for deads at the moment, have any of you used them or rate them?

This is the one I was looking at...

But I see strength shop do a similar one too.

How much do you guys get from a belt when doing deads?

I love my Zulu Glove WSM edition but then this is quite a thick belt. I get confidence more than more pulling power if I'm honest.

i notice Terry Hollands uses one as does Stand Efferding for Pulling,
i think its a velcro fasten and it s circular ring for holing the webbing.

Brian Shaw uses one too from what I've seen too.

I have the strength shop one for that exact reason mate. I cant wear a belt around my waist when I deadlift I wear it like George Leeman so pretty high and these work fine OP

And the fastening system is sturdy guys. It's a good bit of kit
