Schiek Model 2004 Nylon Black 4.75" Wide Weight Lifting Belt Bodybuilding NEW

Description: Our Model 2004 Lifting Belt features our 3 patents including a one-way hook and loop closure, a downward angle to fit the natural shape of your back and a hip and rib contour for added comfort. The 2004 belt is 4.75" wide in the back and comes with a 2 year warranty. Proudly made in the USA. Schiek belts form a cone shape essential for the perfect fit. All other belts create a cylinder and do not fit your body properly. You need to wear a belt that has a conical shape like that of a funnel. Conical belts maintain proper alignment of the spine when lifting. The new hip and rib contour provides ultimate comfort and flexibility. Ordinary belts dig into the hips and ribs and cause discomfort. The one-way hook and loop closure allows belt fastener to slide in one direction only for quick and exact fit. Unlike belts with buckles, the Schiek belt can be easily adjusted to the perfect tension during a workout. A special lumbar insert reinforces the natural shape of the spine. Other nylon belts flex in this area where additional support is needed. Schiek belts are designed to support BOTH the lower back and abdominal area. I wear my Schiek belt during heavy squats, deadlifts, standing shoulder presses and bent over barbell rows. The best thing I like about Schiek belts...they are MADE IN THE USA! ================================================== Update: Studies show that wearing a belt while lifting weights increases intrabdominal pressure by up to 40% and reduces compression of the intervertebral discs by 50%, which suggests that lifting belts can help prevent weight training injuries (patuclarly the back) and aid muscle strength. Other studies report that rep speed on the squat was almost 10% faster when subjects wore belts, indicating that weight belts can hep increase power and strength. Although some claim that wearing a belt will reduce core muscle strength, research shows that a weight belt helps increase the activity of the abdominal muscles by about 10% and the spinal erectors by about 25%. Wearing a belt may actually increase core developement, not hinder it. Our advice: Use a lifting belt on only heavy sets, especially on exercises that load the spine.

I have used it for a couple of years and it is exceptional, in terms of its fit, quality and reliability. However, I have become possessive over it - I don't let anyone else use it. Tegid The shipping was prompt and the belt I purchased was in new condition. This company gives you a personal touch with each order. I have owned numerous other weightlifting products/aids, but have now found the product line I'm sticking with for good. Thanks to the crew at Schiek for producing these fine products. To anyone who is serious about weightlifting, I strongly recommend you try a Schiek product. You won't be disappointed. Justin M. "The 6 inch Schiek 2006 leather weight lifting belt works GREAT. The 6 inch back support gives you all the support that a weight lifter needs. I would recommend this product top of the line." Steve W. Love the belt! Excellent abdominal support as well as back support. Tim O. This belt is an excellent asset to my studio. Kay D. Very comfortable, well built, and made in the USA. Leif L. I'm a 53 year old, 6'4" 300 lb police officer who patrols on a jet ski. I had back surgery in 1983 and I have used weight lifting belts ever since with Schiek being the best I have ever used! I love the fit. Larry H.
