Old cheap belt dug in, new Inzer belt doesn't

[Root]

Got a new Inzer, 4 inch, 10mm belt the other day, and I love it. It feels absolutely solid and comfortable.

Before, I had been using a cheap, flimsy, 4 inch belt that the gym has hanging on the wall. That belt always felt like it was digging into my lowest rib or my hipbone if I didn't have it exactly in the right place, and even then it was uncomfortable. But with the Inzer, I didn't feel any digging whatsoever, and didn't feel like I had to find the right place for it. It was such a difference that I suspected the gym's cheap belt was actually wider than 4 inches until I compared the two and found they were the same. Anybody else have that same experience?

Not really, but I just wanted to comment that I, too, love my new 4 inch Inzer. It feels so good.

what's wrong w/the lever?

what's wrong w/the lever?

The belt is great and the lever works well but for a newbie in my position the buckle would have worked out better.

The lever can only be adjusted by removing the screws and moving the whole hardware. It only takes 1 minute to do it but I'm still in the novice stage so betwee my weight fluctuating all the time and wanting to use a different setting for squats and deadlifts to find the perfect setup, I end up wanting to change it around all the time.

Also, I haven't attempted it yet but, if a buckle can get in the way of a power clean then there's no way you're PCing with a lever.

I decided not to purchase the lever belt because I like to wear my belt on different holes during different lifts and I am in a fat loss mode so my waist keeps getting smaller. Having to constantly change the lever's settings would not be doable. I find the regular buckle not too hard to work with, and does not interfere with the cleans too much.

You can spin it around so the buckle is out of the way.

I'm very happy with my lever, but I like the same setting for squat and DL and my weight is changing slowly enough that I don't need to change the belt often for size reasons.

0_0 so simple yet so amazing. That honestly never occurred to me. I will try this.

You have an Inzer? Inzer sells 3.5" belts?
