A weightlifting belt is not an optional accessory for heavy loads — it is fundamental lower-back protection. It increases intra-abdominal pressure during maximal efforts, stabilises the spine and reduces the risk of lower-back injury on squats, deadlifts and Olympic lifts. The RDX range covers every level and discipline: general strength training, weightlifting and federation-approved powerlifting. Order before 12:00 for same-day dispatch from Meyrin and delivery in 1 to 2 working days.

RDXSports.ch is the official RDX Sports store for Switzerland. Authentic products, Swiss warranty, support in FR/DE/EN.

Which type of belt should you choose?

Neoprene (RX1, RX4, RX5, X3)
Flexible, breathable and comfortable throughout the session. Recommended for general strength training, CrossFit and all-round sessions where the belt stays on the whole time. Not ideal for maximal loads.
4" cowhide leather (Leather 4")
Rigid, superior lumbar support, standard 4-inch width. For deadlifts, squats and heavy pressing movements. The versatile balance between comfort and protection.
6" cowhide leather (Leather 6")
Wider, covering more of the lower back. For athletes with a long torso or those who have had lower-back problems.
10 mm suede, single prong buckle (RD1, 4PB, 4PN)
The powerlifting standard. Consistent 10 mm thickness all the way round, single metal prong buckle. Approved by IPL/USPA/WPC for competition.

How do you choose the right size?

Measure your waist at navel height (not at the hips). Refer to the size guide on each product page. A well-fitted belt lets you slide two fingers between the belt and your stomach, yet holds firmly under load.

Frequently asked questions

Should you wear the belt for every exercise?
No. The belt is useful for exercises with a heavy axial load (squat, deadlift, heavy Overhead Press, bent-over row). For isolation exercises, machines and moderate loads, it is not necessary.
Does the belt replace core bracing?
No. The belt amplifies the intra-abdominal pressure you create yourself by actively bracing your core — it is not a substitute.
Neoprene or leather to start with?
Neoprene to begin with: flexible, comfortable and well tolerated with moderate loads. Move up to leather when your loads become seriously heavy.
What thickness for powerlifting competition?
10 mm is the IPL/USPA/WPC standard. The RDX RD1, 4PB and 4PN belts are approved for these federations.
