Powerlifting apparel is designed to provide maximum comfort and support for the dedicated powerlifting enthusiast. Singlets are a versatile choice for day-to-day training or for wearing to powerlifting meets. The same outfit worn by wrestlers, singlets are tough and durable; at the same time, they offer unlimited mobility.

Types of Powerlifting Apparel
Powerlifting suits offer the maximum in support for hips and thighs, which is exactly what you need when you step into the squat rack to take on some serious weight. Perfect fit is critical to the performance of these suits, with sizes varying by a matter of an inch in both the height and the thigh measurement of the wearer. Powerlifting suits are the focus of continuous evolution as competing product designers strive to create the strongest possible garment while remaining within the rules established for these suits by the various powerlifting associations.

Powerlifting apparel such as erector shirts and bench press shirts are worn to provide the upper torso with the greatest possible support in specific lifting situations. These items are so effective that, like powerlifting suits, their use is restricted in official competitions. Many of these specialized shirts are recommended for use only by experienced powerlifters.

Other examples of powerlifting apparel include shoes, knee wraps and wrist wraps. Powerlifting shoes are constructed to provide optimal traction, support and comfort. Wrapping the knees and wrists serves to support the joints while storing energy to help generate maximum lifting power.
