How do you fasten the belt after you tighten it? Is it suitable to use as a weight lifting belt also? Is the adjusting strap nylon?

This is a light belt designed to help hold minor hernias in place. It is not intended to help prevent them. I would not recommend using this belt for any exercise program.

The waist adjusts with a velco mesh. There are straps that go between the legs which are a buckle and velco adjustment. I don't think this is intended for weight lifting. Not sure of the material type; it should be on the product description.

I wish I could answer your question better. I bought this for my husband, but he never wears it because he says it is uncomfortable. As far as weight lifting....probably not. they don't go up high enough on you waist and lower back for that.

This YouTube video (even though its for a different treadmill) shows you how to loosen and tighten the belt for maintenance lubrication. I do this to my Gold's Gym treadmill every 6 months or so for maintenance. You use the alan wrench that came with the treadmill to loosen/tighten the belt. This video shows you how to do that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKHveJNar1k

Yes, the belt falls off all the time. Very frustrating. I'm going to try replacing the belt. Any solutions you have found?Steve

The sheath belt "loop" is actually adjustable via velcro. It will probably get weaker though as you increase the "loop" size as there will be less velcro to support it...

Not nescesarialy. There is a lot of adjustability in this thing. The belt is the main thing to watch for, the light ropes rest on your shoulders and can be tightened quite a lot.

No belt loop that can comfortably fit it to a belt, There is a loop that would make the bag dangle from your belt, if your belt was narrow enough to fit in that loop. And for a bulky bag (which is great to use if you use a shoulder strap) , hanging this bag on a belt would be getting it in my way - too cumbersome.

You can also tighten the belt. That will add more resistance and stop the belt from moving too quickly. That's what I did to mine. The how-to part is in the instruction manual.

Instructions given are for use with the cargo carrier specified: one that has the slots through which the short end of strap attaches via the oval ring. If you have that carrier: at top of bag feed the long end of s strap under the buckle attached to the top of the bag and up through the second slot and down through the first slot. If done properly you can pull on the buckle end of the strap without the strap slipping and you can pull on the short end to tighten the strap. Repeat the process with the short- end after feeding the short-end of strap through oval ring. Place the ring through the slot in the carrier and tighten. If you're like me and have a different carrier, buy some ratcheting tie-downs and wrap them around the bag and carrier once filled. I think that is a better solution anyway as the rubber attachment points on the bag could tear out. The bag is waterproof and I'm satisfied with it.

I don't know about that cause I simply have no experience putting things on my belt. I would say it's very stuff. So I would be very very comfortable putting a holster on it. It's so stiff I have to work it through the belt loops before I put my pants/shorts on and I do have another tactical belt but it's not this stuff and I love it.

A nylon flat rope loop/or nylon strap has to be sewn on bottom of the bag using an industrial sewing machine. A local gym trainer may be able to assist you. Hope this helps, and good luck!

It is a fixed loop where you will have to undo your belt. But, since it is leather, one could easily cut it and then punch in a pair of closure snaps. It would take every bit of 2 minutes to do once you have the snap set.

There is a loop/handle on it that I attach to my pack with a carabiner. I don't know that I'd try to hang it on my belt, it doesn't have a way to attach to a belt securely. It will flop around.

No it cannot be adjusted, but I have never felt the need to adjust the belt. If the belt is sticking use belt lube, and if it is veering to one side adjust the balance with the Alan wrench. If the belt seems way too lose or tight you may have a faulty product. Ask for a replacement or refund?

yes, you may have to adjust and replace the belt a little more frequently but the machine is heavy duty and I would say on par with most gym equipment. The only problem I have had has been with the computer. They just replaced my 2nd one about a month ago. Free of charge! You may want to think about the extended warranty. They called me at some point after the first year and offered the warranty and I bought it because they had already replaced the computer the first time.

Ask yourself...."Am I going to exercise along with wearing the belt?" Then yes its worth every penny! Nothing worth having comes without first putting in a little work!

Yes. It's easy to adjust. Might be a little warm for all the time use though. It is a good quality belt.

I glue my leather belt and it worm really good. I had to try it a couple of times just because I never glue a belt before but after a couple of tries I got it good and it good as of now.
