The V-Tension Cam Bridge™ Difference

Your Weights. Locked At Your Hips.

Most hip thrust belts let the weight shift, wobble, and pull you out of position mid-set. The DAY-X V-Tension Cam Bridge™ uses infinite micro-adjustment to firmly cradle your dumbbells, kettlebells or plates against your hips — locked in, every rep.

V-Tension Cam Bridge™

Infinite micro-adjustment cinches your load firmly against your body. No shifting. No re-adjusting between sets. Just pure, locked-in stability.

Forge-Lock Core Clips™

Not generic carabiners. Forge-Lock 8mm solid steel core clips — built for repeated loaded hip thrusts. You’ll feel the difference the moment you pick them up.

No Hook-and-Loop.

Hook-and-loop straps wear out. Plastic buckles crack. The DAY-X uses only metal hardware — because your gear shouldn’t fail before you do.

10cm Wide Load Strap

The 10cm-wide distal arms cradle the full handle of your dumbbell — not the narrow strip most belts give you. More contact, less rotation, no lateral swing.

For Women & Men

Home gym. Commercial gym. Travel. The DAY-X was built for any athlete who refuses to let their equipment hold them back.

Crafter-Grade Build

The V-Tension Cam Bridge™ architecture is exclusive to DAYCrafterGear. Patent Pending. Engineered and tested by athletes who refused to compromise.

Versatility

3 Modes. 7+ Exercises.

One belt. Full training system. Each mode is a configuration that unlocks multiple exercises — not a single use case.

DAY-X 3-Mode Training System: Mode 1 Tethered hip thrust, Mode 2 Free Use squat yoke, Mode 3 Suspended belt squat
Mode 01 · Tethered

Tethered Setup

Glutes · Hamstrings · Hip Stabilizers

Maximum stability for heavy hip thrusts. The Crafter-Lock Waistband™ anchors the belt to your hips, the V-Tension Cam Bridge™ cinches the load firmly in place.

  • Hip thrust & glute bridge with anchored load
  • Works with dumbbells, kettlebells & plates
  • Dumbbells cradled horizontal — no swing, no drift
Mode 02 · Free Use

Free Use Configuration

Quads · Glutes · Core · Calves

Untethered training. Remove the Crafter-Lock Waistband™ and the DAY-X becomes a free harness — across the shoulders for squat yoke, around the body for loaded lunges and planks.

  • Squat yoke, lunges & loaded planks
  • Free hip thrust without anchor
  • Belt becomes a versatile load harness
Mode 03 · Suspended

Suspended Load

Chest · Lats · Triceps · Back · Quads · Glutes

Loads hang from your body. The Iso-Drop Suspension Gear™ transfers weight vertically through the chassis — for belt squats, weighted dips, and weighted pull-ups.

  • Belt squat, weighted dips & pull-ups
  • Plate, dumbbell or kettlebell compatible
  • Load hangs at center of gravity

The Architecture

How the System Works.

Four engineered components working together. Each mode rearranges them differently — the system stays the same.

1

The Core Chassis™ Anchors to Your Body

A padded chassis sits across your pelvis — neoprene against the body, anti-slip backing, contoured to spread pressure evenly. Extending from each side are 10cm-wide load straps engineered to cradle the handles of your weights without rotation.

2

Forge-Lock Core Clips™ Anchor the Tension Loop

Two 8mm solid steel clips sit at the end of the distal arms. They act as fixed friction pulleys — the V-Tension Cam Bridge™ routes through both clips to form a closed-loop tension system around your load. In Mode 3, they connect to the Iso-Drop Suspension Gear™ for vertical load suspension.

3

V-Tension Cam Bridge™ Locks Under Load

The cam buckle creates a closed-loop tension system between the two Core Clips. Pull the strap to tighten — infinite micro-adjustment until the load is firmly cradled. Locks tighter under heavier weight.

4

3 Modes Unlock 7+ Exercises

The Crafter-Lock Waistband™ and Iso-Drop Suspension Gear™ rearrange the system into Mode 1 Tethered, Mode 2 Free Use, or Mode 3 Suspended. The printed Setup Guide in your kit has a QR code to free video tutorials for each mode.

Weight Type Compatibility

Which weights work in which modes — before you commit, check what fits your training.

DAY-X Weight Type Compatibility chart — dumbbells, kettlebells, Olympic plates with handle, Olympic plates 2 inch no handle, standard 1 inch plates — supported modes

One thing to note: Mode 1 and Mode 2 cradle the handle of your weight, so plates without grips work in Mode 3 only — where the load hangs below your body for belt squats, dips, and weighted pull-ups.

Your Questions, Answered

Before You Train.

Everything you need to know before training with the DAY-X.

The weight feels uncomfortable on my hips during hip thrust — what now? +

Your Cam Bridge is dialed in too tight. The DAY-X is designed for the load to hang slightly below your hip line, not rest on your bones — and that sweet spot is different for every body and every weight.

The safe way to adjust:

  • Come down to the seated start position first — never adjust mid-set.
  • Loosen the Cam Buckle a small amount.
  • Test with one rep. Re-adjust if needed.
  • When the weight stops pressing into your hips and feels suspended just below them, you found it.

This applies to Mode 1 Tethered and Mode 2 Free Use hip thrust. Mode 3 Suspended loads below the body, so this isn’t a concern there.

Will this Hip Thrust Belt fit me? +
The DAY-X hip thrust belt fits most adult waist sizes — for women and men. The V-Tension Cam Bridge™ provides infinite micro-adjustment so you dial in your perfect tension. Home gym ready.
What weights can I use with it? +

Dumbbells, kettlebells and plates — compatibility depends on the mode you’re training in.

Olympic plates with handle (2″) work in all 3 modes. Olympic plates without handle and standard 1″ plates work in Mode 3 Suspended only.

See Full Compatibility Chart
Is the setup hard to learn? +
The DAY-X uses a Cam Buckle System that locks weights under load — not hook-and-loop straps that loosen over time. Every kit includes a printed Setup Guide with a QR code that unlocks free video tutorials for all 3 modes (Tethered, Free Use, Suspended) so you train correctly from rep 1.
Can I really train hip thrust, dips, AND squats with one belt? +
Yes. 3 modes unlock 7+ exercises: Mode 1 Tethered for hip thrust and glute bridge with anchored load. Mode 2 Free Use for squat yoke, lunges, planks, untethered hip thrust. Mode 3 Suspended for belt squat, weighted dips, weighted pull-ups.
What’s the difference between the V1 Classic and the DAY-X? +
The V1 Classic uses our proven Carabiner System (vertical dumbbell position) — simple setup, clip and lift, 81+ reviews. The DAY-X features the upgraded V-Tension Cam Bridge™ architecture: infinite micro-adjustment, 10cm-wide load straps for handle cradling, Forge-Lock 8mm steel Core Clips, 3 modes, and the included Crafter-Lock Waistband™.
