So you're saying nobody should wear a belt unless they're powerlifting?
No I was asking why he wants to wear a belt.
But to answer your direct question to me.
and we go over this time and time again, fucking.
a competitive powerlifter, as with most competitive sports, exposes an individual to injury, how one goes about preventing injury is very controversial maybe worth a discussion, which usually goes nowhere fast, as a person is reluctant to change, even if one is getting a little benefit from what their doing, so conversations are useless, especially in this field.
For the lifting hobbyist, if they need a belt to exercise, do you think they are addressing the actual problem?
do you think that by strengthening those muscles that support the spine might be the solution to the problem.
the abdominal muscles do not support the spine, the muscles that support the spine actually do this.
studies suggest, and these studies are collected by hundreds and thousands of people throughout the world for the last 50 years have gone unnoticed because of the success rate, and scares a lot of people in the industry, it would put a lot of people out of work, now, you might say I'm crazy, but from what I've read and experienced and seen over the last 40 years of my life this is true.
