Unlike traditional weight training belts designed for powerlifting, the VG Hyperbelt has been designed to be worn throughout your entire training session.  Featuring a streamlined design with 6” of support, athletes experience more stability across compound and other functional exercises. The Hyperbelt allows you to maintain correct form as you progressively increase weight and add reps. It’s not meant to replace a thick leather powerlifting belt for one or two max lifts, it’s meant to be the go to belt for your daily grind and growth.

The VG Hyperbelt's flexible design fits all types of athletes. With six specific sizes and an adaptive tightening system to further adjust the fit, you get tailored support set after set.  Not only is it the most advanced men’s weightlifting belt, it’s also an excellent weightlifting belt for women.  

VG Hyperbelt’s proprietary combination of materials eliminates the need for bulky weightlifting leather belts to deliver the most comfortable core support available. 

  • Full-Core 6" Support: Covers your entire midsection for balanced stability.
  • Adaptive Tightening:  Put on once and easily adjust for every set and exercise.
  • Packable and Lightweight:  Roll it up and drop into your gym bag or backpack.
  • Slim profile: You look good while you work hard.
  • Comfortable Design: A soft inner lining for all-day comfort; rep after rep.

FAQs

1. What materials are used in the VG Hyperbelt?

While traditional olympic weightlifting belts can come in a variety of materials, leather belts are the most common. Leather lifting belts offer more rigidity but can be quite uncomfortable. Nylon is another commonly used material that offers more flexibility but can pinch the skin when performing certain exercises and often make the user look silly in the gym.

The VG Hyperbelt is made of a proprietary blend of materials including uniquely layered padding, high-quality hook and loop fasteners, and durable industrial thread assembled by hand in the United States. The result is a versatile, lightweight belt that provides superior stability and customizable support for each and every rep.

2. What is the belt thickness of the VG Hyperbelt?

Belts specifically designated for powerlifting put a lot of emphasis on the thickness of the belt (typically measured in millimeters). The Hyperbelt is just 5mm thick with a thin amount of padding. This thickness has been specifically engineered to provide the optimal balance of stiffness, flexibility and softness to support your entire training session.

3. How do I properly wear a VG Hyperbelt?

Position the Hyperbelt around your waist so it sits just above your hips. Use the adjustable belt and buckle system to quickly tighten it until it feels snug, but not so tight that you can’t take a deep breath. At rest, you should be able to fit 1-2 fingers between your stomach and the belt.

4. What kind of training requires a VG Hypberbelt?

VG Hypberbelt is designed to offer exceptional support for all levels of lifting while still being comfortable enough to wear throughout your workout. Unlike traditional powerlifting belts, VG Hyperbelt provides stabilization that can be applied to many exercises including squats, lunges, machine exercises and other functional lifts.

5. Why should I invest in a VG Hyperbelt?

The VG Hyperbelt is considered the best weight training belt for hypertrophy-focused training. It is designed to fit athletes of all sizes and is versatile enough to be worn throughout your entire workout. Handmade in the USA using a proprietary blend of materials, the VG Hyperbelt offers the most comprehensive support to help you maintain proper mechanics as you press forward towards new performance gains.

6. What size weightlifting belt do I need?

The Hyperbelt comes in sizes XS-XXL. Your belt size depends on your waist measurement. Please refer to our sizing chart for exact measurements and size down if you are in between sizes.

Reviews

Absolutely incredible gift for my 91 year old grandad

"Dr. Mike sent us! I bought this for my 91 year old grandad, who recently started lifting, and I could not be happier with it. He has had some trouble with his lower back, so finding something that helped him feel more supported and confident while exercising was a huge deal. The Hyperbelt has been incredible for helping him brace properly, engage his abdominals, and use his core to support his lower back during exercises. It has made such a difference in how secure and comfortable he feels while training. I realize a 91 year old weightlifter is probably not the most common use case here, but that honestly makes me love this product even more. Such a wonderful, purpose driven gift, and seeing him train with confidence at 91 is pretty is extremely fufilling."

James R. (5/5)

Great product and support

"The belt is my second purchase for a woman amateur training deadlift. Prior to that I purchased straps from VG. The quality is great as is performance. Equally important is their customer support. I had USPS shipping issues with the belt. USPS failed miserably . VG stepped right in and solve the problem. A great group to work with."

Jeffrey P. (5/5)

Absolutely love this belt!

"I was using a thick leather lever belt prior to this. I was still doing sets of 8-12 and realized the lever belt is not what I need. I’m training for hypertrophy, not training to be a power lifter doing only a few reps. This belt much better suits my training style and needs and is far more comfortable than what I was using."

Peter C. (5/5)

Great Gym Belt

"I have an old back injury (bulging disc) that tends to flare up after going to the gym. My doctor suggested getting something I could wear during my workouts for extra support, so I decided to give this a try. I don’t use it as a heavy lifting belt, but I do wear it during my other workouts at the gym. I noticed a difference almost immediately—it really helped reduce the back pain I would normally have after working out. For me, it works great, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for some extra back support while exercising."

Jason G. (5/5)

Very good weight belt

"When i first opened it the first thing I thought was how the hell is that gonna work. But, once I started using it the more I started to like it. It is way more supportive than you would think. It is also so comfortable that you can use it all of the time. The craftsmanship is spot on. If you need more support just tighten it up. I think it is a great belt. Glad I purchased it."

Tim W. (5/5)

Best gym belt I have used

"Great belt. I measured and ordered a large and it didn't fit. They sent me an RMA and exchanged it for a medium. Very easy to deal with."

Joe C. (5/5)

One month in.

"I wasn’t sure I needed a Hyperbelt. I’m glad I have one now. It’s helped my RDL and Farmer’s Carry. It’s opened up the variety of exercise options I’m now likely to try. My back is 74 and doesn’t need any more damage."

Richard S. (5/5)

Over priced versa grips also

"Over priced versa grips also way over priced and friction strap too short"

Christopher W. (2/5)

Quick, Easy, Comfortable

"The title says it all: quick on and off, easy to wear and use (remember to learn how to brace properly), and comfortable. One more thing: easy to store for travel. Okay, The title didn’t say it all. I lied. Sue me. I’ve thought of more to, but at this point in the review, my lawyer has advised me against it. Great product!"

Craig S. (5/5)

"This is the second hyper belt I ordered as I have lost weight and the Xl is now too big. This belt is perfect for those who need support, but are looking for the flexibility to wear the a weightlifting belt through various movements that do not require you to constantly loosen and tighten after every set."

Q&A

Do we need to order a different size when in prep vs. Off-season? My husband is currently in prep, but we're hesitant to invest if the belt will only fit him during this phase
Hi Charlie, We don't recommend purchasing the Hyperbelt if you already plan to add or cut weight, in case you end up not being able to fasten the belt enough! You will want the belt size that is right for your measurements at the time of ordering unless you know roughly how many inches you plan to add or lose from your bellybutton area.
How do you clean the hyperbelt? It’s already beginning to smell. I always shower before I go to gym but I sweat a lot and I try to take to it off frequently instead of keeping it on, but the material absorbs the sweat through my other shirts. Can you provide a specific way to clean the belt and remove any odor without damaging the material?
Hi Jared, The Hyperbelt is hand wash only! Please do not put the Hyperbelt into the washing machine, much like with our Versa Gripps. You may spot clean as necessary and allow it to air dry or pat dry with a clean rag.
I am curious of the efficacy of this belt in being an assistant in recovery from transversus abdominis injury. I’ve suffered training injuries on other body parts but TVA injury has been the first to make me feel old, weak, and honestly a bit hopeless. Especially when you feel like a shell of your former self. So I am curious to know if this product will help me as opposed to hinder me or becoming exclusively reliant on this belt.
Hi Rich, While we can’t expressly say that our belt will assist in recovering from a specific injury or that it will heal an injury, when used correctly the Hyperbelt shouldn’t exacerbate an existing injury unless you have an improper size or are training improperly so as to strain the injured muscles. The Hyperbelt allows you to maintain correct form as you progressively increase weight and add reps. It’s not meant to replace a thick leather powerlifting belt just for one or two max lifts, it’s meant to be the all-around go-to belt for your daily grind and growth. This particular belt easily tightens down when needed and relaxes between reps as you comfortably wear it all workout long, is lightweight compared to other belts (like the stiff leather belts), and features a soft inner lining for all-day comfort!
How will the Velcro hold up over time? Will I need to replace the belt every 2-3 years if worn for 6 workouts a week if it’s meant for “all workouts?” For $90 that seems a little steep considering I can buy a lever belt for $90 and have it last my literal lifetime.
Thanks for the question! We care deeply about quality, and all of our products are hand-made in the USA and carefully inspected to ensure they each meet our expectations. For the Hyperbelt, we use premium hook-and-loop material built for long-term durability, similar to our Versa Gripps where we've seen athletes using them for 10+ years. Unlike a lever belt designed mainly for max-effort lifts, the Hyperbelt is made to support your entire workout and deliver lasting performance. We’re confident it will serve you well for years to come. -Bryan Emrich, CEO
