 Member 5964, 573 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 265665.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | I've got a lever, single prong & soft belt lol. Use the soft belt for lighter moving events, medleys, stone etc. Use the single prong for heavy moving events & deadlifts, and use the lever when I want a really tight belt aka for squats or overhead press. If I had to pick one I'd go for the lever | ||

 as crimson as my last victims underclothing..... Member 899, 11329 posts SQ 180, BP 132.5, DL 190502.5 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | I used to like the palace of arts weightlifting club belt. I think it was 10 mm and had a double pronged buckle on it. It wasn't super rigid either it had a slight bit of give in it. Loved that belt. Now i use a bodybuilder style belt with a skinny front and double pronged buckle. My favouritee thing about it is that it's gold. | ||

 #IStandByMillsy Member 4287, 2614 posts SQ 300, BP 310, DL 250860.0 kgs @ 120kgs Eq | Levers all the way for me; titan long horn 10mm and inzer reverse taper bench belts. Tried double and single pin buckle belts in past and they are too much faffing between sets. Only issue with levers is if you want different tightnesses. | ||

#biggef Member 5263, 3492 posts SQ 260, BP 195, DL 260715.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | Being a bit of a peasant I don't have much cash to splash so it was a one shot deal when I bought a lever belt from big Ben products ,first time using it felt great,bit harder for deads though struggle to get starting position right.anyone eles find that?. Anyway as mentioned by DRD you can't adjust tightness for different lifts which is a shame but hey ho you can't have everything. | ||

Anyway as mentioned by DRD you can't adjust tightness for different lifts which is a shame but hey ho you can't have everything. Common complaint for deads. I only put the belt on around 230+ for that reason. I use a lever and i dont find i have to change the position for lifts. But if i do because of gainz then its quickly done with a penny to turn the screws and off ya go! | ||

Strength shop do discounts over spend amounts ... over £1000 5% over £1500 10% think over £2000 is 15% and over £2500 is 20% .... got some mighty fine close to calibrated plates (+/- 250g) is shiny steel that look pretty smart at £100 a pop for 25kg which would look even nicer at £80 a pop ... | ||
