Need help deciding on SBD belt size (M vs L) + 13mm vs 10mm
About to order my first SBD lever belt and I can’t decide between Medium or Large, and also between the 10mm and 13mm.
Right now I’m around a 37” waist at 110 kg, but I’m planning to cut down to around 85–90 kg over the next months. I mainly train heavy squats and stiff-legged deadlifts in the 4–6 rep range, focused on progressive overload. Not a powerlifter, just strength/bodybuilding focused.
From what I’ve seen online, some people with a 37” waist say the Medium fits fine, just near the last holes, while others recommend Large. My main concern is that if I get a Large now, it might end up too big after the cut.
Also not sure between 10mm and 13mm. I like the idea of maximum support from the 13mm, but I’ve heard the 10mm is more comfortable for general training.
Anyone here been in a similar situation or own an SBD belt?
