SELF-LOCKING SECURITY: Unlike other belts that only rely on cheap velcro to support your lifts, our weight lifting belt uses Self-Locking technology that will never wear down and risk injury during your olympic lifts. The self-locking buckle is extremely simple and easy to use, it releases immediately upon pulling the release roller, yet, will never open or slip no matter how big your lift! Quit risking injury and worrying about your belt opening, try the self-locking difference now!BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE: The Self-Locking Belt is made from 100% Premium Nylon, Full Metal Self-Locking Buckle, doesn’t have silly padded inserts and mesh coverings which result in unequal distribution of pressure during your lifts and designed with only one purpose in mind… ultimate performance for functional fitness athletes.FUNCTIONALLY DESIGNED: One of the most frustrating aspects of other exercise belts is the silly use of contour and tapered designs. A weightlifting belt is designed to create even, consistent, intra-abdominal pressure to increase your stability during your lift, it’s not a back support that others claim to be. To do this most effectively, a uniform 4 inch profile has been shown time and time again to be the most effective design by Powerlifters, Olympic lifters, and Functional athletes!COMPETITION APPROVED: You know what is the worst? Buying a weightlifitng belt and finding out you can’t use it in your competitions. Unlike our competitors, the Be Smart Self-Locking Weightlifitng Belt is fully approved for use in USAW and Functional Fitness Competitions. Don’t be stuck having to buy twice, buy with confidence knowing this belt is approved for your competition
