Review: Schiek Dip Belt


Schiek Dip Belt


Schiek makes a lot of high end work out equipment. They have been used by the likes of Jay Cutler and Phil Heath. Today we will be reviewing the Dip Belt Model B5008. You can find it here.


Price :  9/10

The tag of $54.95 is a bit pricey compared to some of the similar belts on the market. For that price though, you are paying for quality, durability, and comfort. This is definitely a situation where you will want to look at the benefits of the belt.

Durability :10/10

Durability is a must when it comes to belts, both support and dip belts. These belts can support more than a fair share of weight - and that is good. Safety is very important when it comes to working out and fitness.

Comfort : 10/10

Insanely comfortable. As with all dip belts, it is a bit awkward to get on, but once on it feels snug and like it isn't going anywhere. It is made with Black Amara Synthetic Leather. The comfort factor is very important when it comes to a dip belt. The padded back almost makes you forget you have weight hanging from your body when you are wearing it.

Uses : 10/10

The Dip Belt's primary use is? You guessed it! Dips! Dips do start as a body weight exercise, but what do you do when you are the master of the dip? You can add on the weight to beef up your triceps.  You can also use it to add to your pull up routines.

Overall : 10/10

We Recommend : Go for it. 


The benefits of owning this piece of workout equipment definitely outweigh the cost. The Shieck B5008 is a great piece to have in your home gym, as well as to be able to utilize in other gyms.
