You can usually find them online for about 20-30 dollars depending on material. I have this one. Admittedly, I never use it because most gyms supply their own.

I bought mine online.......it's a "Progryp"..all black leather....nice and wide..with a good padded area at the back.

Think I paid about 45 bucks.

D-o-o-o-h!!......can't remember what site I bought it off at the moment.....might have been Bodybuilding.com....but I'm not sure.

I really like this belt.

I think it was only about $24 when I bought it

Yes...that's the one I bought too....

The only extra thing I did with it was:- I use the chain that they supply completely for "cinching" the belt a little tighter around the waist...I didn't like the idea of it hanging there by friction alone.

I then added another chain and clip for the weight to hang off which hangs from the first chain.....works beautifully....

I dont require a specefic belt yet as I cant handle that much weight on dips or pull-ups.

I use a dog leash....

Now that your done laughing, I put the clip thru the hand loop, then thru the plates and then clip it back to the hand loop. The weight of the plates keeps it tight. I've had 45# hanging from it no problem.
