Powerlifting Gear and Supplement Consultation
Talk is cheap. I only recommend gear and supplements that I have personally tested under heavy weight. No marketing hype, just what works for real lifters.
Receiving a sponsored powerlifting belt from Griffin Gears after they saw my unofficial record deadlift. Good gear finds you when you put in the work.
Putting the Griffin Gears belt to the test with a 270kg raw deadlift. The right belt makes a huge difference in stability and confidence.

Geared up and focused. Wearing my Inzer deadlift suit and a solid belt is crucial for handling maximum weight safely.
Here I review The Muscle Ape's liquid chalk while doing a 340kg squat. It gives a solid grip without the mess, even with an injured finger.

About Gear I Use & Trust
Stop wasting money on gear that fails when you need it most. Whether it is choosing between SBD and Griffin belts for your specific waist size, or finding authentic Muscle Ape supplements, I guide you based on what I use to hit a 390kg squat. This is not retail—it is direct advice on what you actually need to hit your next PR safely.
Real Gear for Real Lifts
I have seen too many lifters blow their money on hyped gear that fails when the bar is heavy. My recommendations come from the platform, not a brochure. I personally use and vouch for Griffin Gears lock belts because they are solid, wallet-friendly, and hold up under 340kg+ loads.
Why My Advice Matters
I do not do 'shopfront drama'. I am a 9x Senior National Champion, and everything I recommend has been stress-tested by me.
- Belts: I have seen premium brands fail at critical moments. I help you choose the right Griffin belt with exact sizing so you do not deal with returns or poor stability.
- Chalk & Salts: If you are still using powder chalk, you are making your training harder. I use Muscle Ape liquid chalk because it dries in seconds, keeps your grip dry even with an injured finger, and saves your eyes from powder.
- Supplements: I do not believe in hype. I consult only on products that actually support recovery and strength—essential stacks for joints, heart health, and muscle repair.
How I Help
When you consult with me, I look at your goals and your current gym routine. I tell you exactly what is required to push your limits. We discuss:
- Equipment Sizing: Getting the perfect fit for your belt to prevent injury.
- Verification: Avoiding counterfeit equipment and supplements by pointing you to trusted supply chains.
- Advanced Stacks: Guidance on organ protection and performance aids for serious athletes who are ready for the next level.
If you are a serious lifter, you do not need more confusion. You need the right tools. Reach out to get started.
