Excellent quality belt, and even better customer service

This belt is like a work of art, and I am obsessed. 😍 Plant Forged Physique invented THEIR OWN VEGAN LEATHER 🔥 that's been damage-proof thus far! I recently started training for strongwoman competition, and it's been rough... I've got some new battle scars, but my belt is still flawless despite some fight-for-your-life belt-cleans and axel press!

I've been bodybuilding since COVID, won my pro card last year - 2024, and up next, my goal is to become a pro strongwoman. Strength sports are everything for me! Finding the right belt for me has been a journey.

Though I've tried lifting belts before (different brand I won't name drop bc the vegan belt options are few), and they were just not for me - my first belt was a lever belt, and it would never stay in place, and my old prong belt was so ridiculously thick that it wouldn't thread through the belt loop! Picture the belt jutting out several inches in front of you. 🫠 What a sight to literally wrestle with getting your own belt on and off!

This plant forged belt is the perfect blend of super-stiff-and-supportive for your core, and also flexible enough to easily fit in the belt loop on the FIRST TRY. It needs zero breaking in.

I love the black brown color. I love the double prong metal quality. I love that the belt is resistant to perma-creasing if you leave it buckled on itself. And of course, I love that it's an eco-friendly vegan leather and that everything down to the glue is nontoxic and cruelty free.

There comes a point in your lifting - once it starts getting really heavy - you've got to use a belt! A belt is the best cue you can use to brace and Valsalva to push to your limit.

I got this belt at a discount, but it is absolutely worth every penny. For me, the site shows the Australian dollar price. To see the actual price - if you are in the U.S. or anywhere outside Australia - I had to add it to the cart and view the price in checkout to see the actual price conversion. FYI

I’ve been using the Eco Elite lifting belt from Plant Forged for a few weeks now, and I must say I’m seriously impressed! The belt looks amazing, and the 100% vegan leather feels incredibly sturdy, providing excellent support during my strongman training. It’s not just great for static lifts but also for dynamic exercises like loading events. The belt is easy to adjust, which is perfect because sometimes I need it a bit tighter or looser depending on the exercise. One of the best features is that it’s sweat-resistant and trust me, I sweat a lot during workouts! Plus, it’s easy to clean, which is great since I use a lot of chalk while training.

Overall, this is a fantastic lifting belt!

Amazing lifting belt!!
I did not need to break it in as it wasn’t overly stiff like other belts I’ve used. Very well constructed with great attention to high quality of materials. Additionally, I love that this belt is Vegan - I don’t have to smell the stink of leather! Exceptional company dedicated to compassion annd protection of animals and the care of the planet! 🙌

It doesn't matter if you're vegan or not (and I've dabbled in both). I wanted to reduce my impact on the world, so switching to this belt just made sense.

I was pleasantly surprised! The belt is super flexible but really sturdy. And feels way more comfortable during long sessions compared to my old belt. Happy I made the switch!
