I have a 32" waist. When i use a weight belt, I put it on extremely tight to compensate for core. Would small or medium be recommended?

But I suggest buying it medium because mine fits perfectly but does not have much room left. Hope it helps.

I wear mine the same way. I'm a 30 and the medium works great for me. If your 30-34 then medium is without a doubt the belt for you.

I got the small and I have a 25" waist and I think it fits pretty good. The leather is taking awhile to break in so it is difficult to snug up, but the more I use it the more I like it.

it depends what you're more comfortable with, because I'm not the average bodybuilder I used to be 315 pounds and I have excess skin I prefer my belt to be tighter, I feel as if it feels better on the core because of it being so tight, granted I only put the belt on when I do 405 on a deadlist.

I have a 33-34 waist and the medium is pretty snug. Large would be advised for 36 waist.

I think the small would fit you best. I bought the medium when I was heavier than I am now (I was between the 2 sizes so I went with the medium) After losing weight, I am close to your size: 28" waist, 35" hip. The medium is huge on me. I've had to take it in in 4 places (luckily I sew), but the tucks have made it bulky. I agree with the others who posted, it IS a great back belt, I can do almost everything I did before my injury when I wear it. And BTW - they all fit best when standing and get snug when you sit down, that's the trade-off for good support. Good luck!

I would get the Medium for sure. I got the large and it isn't tight enough. I have same size waist. I am gonna have to put more holes in my belt. Also the belt is really stiff might bruise your hip bones. Just roll the belt and flex it to break it in. That will help a lot. I hope I helped sorry about the late response.

Well my waist is like 30" and I got a small and it is pretty snug so yeah I'd say medium for sure.

I'm a size 32 and it adjust. So you should be fine. Really solid belt for the price

I weigh a little more and I think my waist is a little more but I got a medium. The belt around your waist is fairly flexible, but it really needs to be snug around your waist and has plenty of give.

I've got a set of 'large', 'medium' and 'small'. I've got an almost 36" waist and all three sizes fit. The 'large' is very comfortable, the 'medium' is more firm and the 'small' seems somewhat reminiscent of what a girdle must feel like. I'm an old guy that exercises frequently and suspect repeating hernias. So all three have their use cases and I'm happy with the lot. BTW, the 'package' container portion seems the same size on all three, only the waist band differs.

If you want true compression with 31" waist, small. I'm 32 with a tape measure and have the small size. I do prefer to roll the waistband down when wearing them.

Depends on your age, whether you're done growing, and how serious you are about lifting. Sounds like you might be under 18 with a waist that thin, if you are I'd go with the Medium, especially if you're planning to continue lifting.

I would go for the medium.I am a 35" hip and a 27" waist and I took the small, they were quite comfortable.

I have a 34 waist and the belt will adjust either way to fit waist sizes smaller or larger than mine. Hope this helps.

I wear a 36 waist and the medium Sportaid (35-41") worked fine. So, I would safely suggest the small per the link to the sportaid site.

I have a 34-36" waist depending on the clothing I wear. I took up all the slack in the web belt. It will just barely fit comfortably. Bottom Line: Way too much belt. It just isn't sized for a small to medium waist. The pouch itself is great!

I am roughly your size, and using size xs. Please note you should fasten the belt really tightly to get the necessary support in heavy lifting. I wear it at the loosest end in the interbals and tighten it with all my might when I hit the barbel. It works fine for me.

My waist size is 30- meaning some times when I am buying pants I will need to get a 29 if available. I ordered the M and it works for me, but I have too much belt left over. Sometimes I am tightening it up in the gym. I would go with the S.
