YOUR SOFT BELT MIGHT NOT BE ENOUGH ANYMORE… 👀

If your soft belt has become a staple in your training but you’re starting to want more compression, more stability and more support, it might be time to consider an upgrade.

Our latest blog breaks down the CERBERUS MH PRO Strongman Back Support Belt and why it could be the next step up from a standard soft belt.

Inside Part 1, we cover:

💥 What makes the MH PRO different
💥 7mm hybrid stiff neoprene + reinforced splints
💥 Maximum support without sacrificing movement
💥 Why it works across events like stones, sandbags and log press
💥 How to get your sizing right
💥 MH PRO vs the standard CERBERUS soft belt

Whether you’re new to strength training or an experienced strongman wondering if you’ve outgrown your current belt, this one’s worth a read.

A much needed appreciation post, post worlds.

In no particular order - There are many people to thank, so I’ll try be brief but to the point 🤣

@mikehardg & @chris_reddiford - could not thank these dudes enough. They saved my ass accommodation wise whilst in Scotland. But they also taught me a lot about cutting, prepping, refueling & many other intricacies that is a massive part of being a top level strongman. Could not have asked to be backed by better guys. Boys, I really do appreciate it!

Team NZ/Samoa - we all had each other’s backs and supported each other where possible. Wasn’t an easy task to get to the other side of the world. But you all helped immensely!

@brittany_reading_ thank you for allowing me to chase my dreams. It wasn’t easy for myself, and I know it wasn’t easy for you either.

The U72 boys - big thank you to each of you. From bringing me in a year ago, taking time to get to know me, making me feel part of the family and just being top blokes with comp, training and general life.

My friends, family & sponsors - for all helping me get over to Scotland. Your support mentally & financially is forever appreciated.
@kiwitrucktyres @onparplumbing @wadebrickandblocklayingltd @carterstyres_pukekohe

Hopefully I get the privilege to represent NZ again. I can’t wait to try earn my way back and give it hell 🤘🏼
