    Weight lifting belts

    Hey all, I’m after some advice/tips on weight lifting belts as I have never owned or used one before and am not an experienced bodybuilder. At what sort of weight do you start using a belt for your heavy compound lifts and does it stop you building a stronger core? Any advice/tips would be...

    How do you break your belts in?

    I've read about putting them in the dish washer, running over them in a car, soaking them in a sink etc.... How do you guys do it?

    Any recommendation on weightlifting belts ?

    I read around alot and there are so many mixed answers. At first i wanted a Titan Toro or LongHorn but then there's good place to buy them, HoP apparently is not legit now and titan Australia has a dodgy batch going around. What other belts do you guys recommend ? I heard Inzer is the best but...

    Belts

    I noticed these last two weeks that wearing a belt makes exactly no difference to me At first I felt naked without it but in 2 weeks I am hitting and surpassing my old belted numbers on the squat and deadlift. On the squat it makes me feel "more secure" which maybe helps with unracking the bar...

    3" Belts

    Has anyone here used a 3 inch belt before? I have a stupidly short illiac crest-rib area which makes a 4 inch uncomfortable when squatting, would a 3 inch solve my problems? Or should i stick with the 4 inch? Thinking of buying from bestbelts (expensive, but quality).

    Does anyone know who is currently distributing Inzer weight belts in Oz and roughly how much they are compared to ordering from the US?

    weight lifting belts / back support?

    Ive read they can wreck ur posture or form and there is no need to use them unless u actually have an injury, Then again alot of people have told me there not just for injurys they are to prevent injurys. Should i be using one im upto deadlifting 170 kilos.
