      I use one for deads, squats, and bent over rows for back. I 've read from some pretty good people that you should not be trying to build core muscles during these lifts. That's why you give your abs there own workout days. The belt is there when your squating to be able push with all you've got and support the ab area as well as the lower back.
      Assumption is the mother of all fuck ups

Of course, this is something that took years to develope, but now I dont' use a belt. The only time I use any support is when a joint is huring, say wrist, and I will only wrap the heavy sets until it get's better.
      well...no-one really told me. it was a simple, i dont use it, my back hurts. i use it, it dont hurt...that was all i needed to know. i dont use it on all sets, just the last and heaviest.

      So is it OK to laugh at that dude in the gym that has his belt on no matter what? Bi's=belt, tri's=belt, cardio=belt.

      At first I thought he might have a back problem but soon realized he is just one of those guys!

      LOL- that wasn't for you bro, that was for the dude that started the thread because he said he heard it was for that. Sorry if I confused you, now I know it doesn't take very much.
      I used to have superhuman powers....until my therapist took them away.
