Frequently asked questions

How do I size the RDX IPF powerlifting belt?

Measure around your lower back and belly button rather than using pant size; if you fall between two listed sizes, RDX recommends sizing up.

Does the RDX belt need to be broken in?

Yes, several owners describe it arriving stiff and recommend tightly coiling it for a few days, alternating direction, to soften the leather before heavy lifting.

Is this belt legal for powerlifting competition?

It is built to IPF, USPA and IPL thickness and width criteria in both the 10mm and 13mm options.
