The 5” Nylon belt is a cheap option and I am personally surprised that it is that popular. It will give you more freedom to move than a leather belt, buy suspicion for the higher popularity of the belt is its low price compared to leather. If you are looking for a cheap belt for lifting the Rogue echo belt is a better option in my opinion. You can find the full review of the 5” Nylon belt via this link.
Overview of the premium lifting belt
The
Rogue Ohio Premium belt is one of the many products of Rogue which shows that they take customer feedback seriously and improve on existing designs.
The belt comes in 4'' width and brown color. It is 10mm thick and is made os US English Bridle leather. The leather has been vegetable tanned. The edges are finished with black Tuff Kote and a slip-resistant interior texture has been added.
It is great to see that Rogue took the
Ohio belt design and improved the leather, stitching, finish on the edges and provided better functionality in the middle. I have seen this happen many times in the product range of Rogue and makes me happy to be a customer of them.
Pros of the premium lifting belt
The
Rogue Premium Ohio lifting belt is the best all-purpose belt you can get from Rogue at this time. It can be used for weightlifters, powerlifter and bodybuilders alike. The new improvements are worth the extra $20 compared to the
Rogue Ohio lifting belt, which is also a very solid choice. The best improvement is the inner texture of the belt that avoids slipping..
That could be a problem with the
old Ohio belt.
Cons of the premium lifting belt
Alternatives to the premium lifting belt
Alternatives in the same price range are the
Rogue lever belt and the
Pioneer faded belt. The
lever belt would be the better choice for serious powerlifters who do nothing but going heavy on the deadlift, squat and bench press. The
faded belt can be a good choice for smaller lifter due to their Pioneer Cut system which enables 0.5mm increments in closing the buckle.
