Rep Power: 107397 | Re: Do you deadlift with a belt? My question is does anyone think there could be problems by not using one or is it really just a "band aid" for weaker muscles? |

Rep Power: 100796 | Re: Do you deadlift with a belt? i think if you're training for a strongman competition, it's a requirement. if you're not maxing on every lift, it's a bandaid. |

I don't use one. but then again, I don't think I lift heavy enough with deads to use one. |
