Bellabooty Premium Hip Thrust Belt - Adjustable Exercise Belt for Glutes & Squats, Hip Thrust Pad for Comfort, Versatile Gym Equipment for Home - Weightlifting Belt Support for Women

Love this addition to my home gym setup! Great for hip thrusts but versatile enough to use for other purposes and easy to use. Plus it doesn’t take up much space and is super sturdy. Doesn’t hurt like the barbell does!

As a certified personal trainer and glute specialist, I use the Bellabooty Belt with all my clients — and it’s hands-down one of my favorite tools for lower-body workouts. It gives an excellent range of motion and adds more stability during hip thrusts, glute bridges, and other glute activation exercises. The padding is thick and comfortable, so there’s no hip pain or slipping during sets. It’s also super convenient to use with dumbbells, plates, or kettlebells — perfect for home or gym workouts. It's super durable. I'm able to load at least 2 25-pound plates on each side and move them comfortably. If you’re serious about glute growth, this is a must-have! Effective, comfortable, and trainer-approved. 💪🍑

Great works well and holds a decent amount of weight.

This is a good option if you are between a beginner and intermediate stage of hip thrusts. (I didn’t try using it for any other exercise.) I do home workouts and was using dumbells for hip thrusts until it became too unwieldy, so I tried this. It works well if you want to work in the 60lb-120lb range, I feel. It’s a little awkward at first, but easy enough to get used to. However, once I moved from two 30lb dumbbells to 40s, I found it unbearable. The weight was unwieldy and difficult to set up, and it was so painful on my pelvis. I ended up with bruising and torn skin. Now I’ve invested in a barbell and don’t use this anymore. If you want something for this intermediary stage or your goals are to stay under 30lbs each side, then this would work well; if your goals or ability involves more weight, then I think it would be a waste of time.

If you’re in need of a product that makes hip thrusts more comfortable, this is the one to get. The OG. A lot of thought went into the design of this product. The Velcro is extremely strong but easy to adjust, and the way the straps overlap under the foldover belt let you make quick adjustments without even thinking about it. It’s very easy to use barbells, kettle bells, and plates without a lot of trial and error. (As with any Velcro, be careful near your leggings and make sure the belt is closed before you throw it in your gym bag so it doesn’t snag your stuff.) Before buying this, I purchased a knockoff that used a tension buckle instead. Not only was that extremely difficult to work with, but the straps started fraying badly after a few uses from being threaded over and over again. It’s worth a little extra money to get this. I’ll mention that the only reason I bought a knockoff in the first place was that I feel embarrassed using a piece of equipment that has “BellaBooty” printed on it. It’s unnecessarily specific and invites the kinds of attention and interactions I’d rather avoid when I’m already doing an exercise that looks like I’m humping the sky. I wish product owners would think about this stuff.

An ok substitute, but not quite worth the price. Heavy dumbbells are an absolute no since the fit is tight and it’ll loosen the Velcro straps and drop out of the band. I only use my bellabooty with kettlebells for this reason, and now I’ve started using regular resistance bands with heavier dumbbells to get a similar effect. It’s cheaper and more practical.

Works well and works your glutes

Works as it should, very comfortable over hip bones
