    Belts

    Your right there. The belt changes your angles. To get the most out of a belt you need to use it properly, and actually pushing against it, not just putting it on and thinking it will do its job. people talk about it 'getting in the way' make sure you have it in the right position, i find if...

    Back problems need a belt

    The belt isnt a bandaid If you cant squat or deadlift without it, its not a good idea to whack a belt on and hope for the best. As for not wanting to hurt yourself, start very light and build up slowly

    Fear Factor

    How heavy is heavy for DB wrist curls?

    Different ballgame, almost an art. The weight doesnt lift itself. You still need to be in control, precise technique is needed to use equipment properly. Is using steroids cheating yourself?

    How long do you train for?

    How heavy is heavy for DB wrist curls?

    I never said that those numbers are a bare minimum, i said these goals are generally a bare minimum, like markos' 140/100/180 regardless of bodyweight, you hitting those numbers doesnt mean your strong, it means your on the right track
