ABSTRACT:
A waist belt for weight lifting incorporates a strap ratchet and nylon strap for tightening the belt. The waist belt includes a heavy leather belt and a nylon strap, both with first and second ends. The strap ratchet is secured on the belt loop near the first end of the belt. The first end of the nylon strap is attached to the strap ratchet. The nylon strap is sewn to the belt until a quarter of the leather belt remains at the second end of the belt. The second end of the nylon strap hangs free at the second end of the leather belt. The second end of the leather belt is placed through the middle of the belt loop, gripping support loops as necessary. The second end of the nylon strap is placed through the strap ratchet nylon strap tightening mechanism. The belt is now tightened by gripping the strap ratchet's handle and ratcheting by hand for desired tightness. Belt is quickly unbuckled by pulling up and holding strap ratchet's nylon strap release mechanism and pulling fully open strap ratchet's handle.
