Nice. I figure i need to start using on squats...but i cant see a need to ever use one deadlifts personally either...never had an issus staying tight in deadlifts, squat mastery still evades me.
I was going to go 100% raw for nationals but decided to belt up on squats.
Pulled 215kg in competition with a belt and deadlift bar, pulled 200kg the week after with no belt and a stiff bar so there isn't really a lot in it. The bar does lift off the floor faster with the belt though, I can push out against it right on the lift off and I feel my obliques helping more
I just think that they are extraneous to my development as an athlete and I'm fed up of the bullshit with them. I get 5kg from my year old 2m Z's that I wrap myself. I was told that if I got brand new 2.5m and got other people to wrap them I could get an extra 15kg from wraps. I just think "why".
I don't like the idea of depending on external factors for my success. Maybe when I am stronger and will have my own team of people like the guys at PTC do and I can have all these things done for me in training as well things will change.
