The Ranch 4" Weightlifting Belt

Be sure and measure around your belly button. If you don't have a tailor's measuring tape, you can use any leather belt to mark off the length. Then, place the belt on a flat surface and use any regular ruler or measuring tape to measure the length.

You don't want the ends to overlap. And you also don't want the ends too far apart.

One of our most premium belts, with the performance you expect from a 2POOD straight belt, and the looks of a classic leather belt.  

We all know how uncomfortable traditional leather belts can be.  If you've ever worn one, you probably had that moment where you couldn't breathe or get out of the belt.  

Well, our "Ranch" belt is the solution.  

This high-performing 2POOD Straight belt has a stiffer leather covering that looks amazing but sits on top of our durable, flexible belt, giving you the best of both worlds.  

Made with a covering of real distressed leather with our embossed 2POOD logo.

Named after "the Ranch", which was the original location of The Games event in Aromas, California!

When and how to wear Belt

1. WEIGHTLIFTING
You should use a weightlifitng belt on lifts that engage your core such as squats, deadlifts, clean and jerks, and snatches.

2. 80% RULE
We recommend using a weightlifting belt when you are lifting heavy.Heavy is relative, and we usually define this as 80% of your max lift in any of the above core lifts.

3. REPETITIVE MOVEMENTS UNDER LOAD
Even if you're lifting less than 80% of your one-rep max, belts are often worn when doing high number of repetitive movements under load.

4. PLACEMENT
A weightlifting belt should be worn securely above your hips and below your ribs, centered around your belly button for maximum engagement.
