Your gym doesnt offer free rentals of them? Most gyms offer powerlifting belts, weight belts, wrist straps, etc...

I hate most of the ones that gyms have with the really stiff leather. I like mine to fit the contours of my back but with a lot of the old school really stiff leather ones, they just kinda dig in. I prefer a more pliable belt.
|
the use of wrist wraps are mainly for bench press right ??? if your benching lots of weight??
|
Wrist straps are more for pulling movements (rows, chins, shrugs) than bench.
|
I cannot believe I saw a so-called belt the other day using velcro to secure the belt instead of a buckle. What a load of crap. :wtf:
|
I use and inzer belt. I bleieve it was around $50-$60. Definitely the best belt I have tried so far.
|
I use a belt with velcro I can get it much tighter than a buckle

your belt doesn't need to be tight. i have seen a couple of your posts. I suggest you read some articles because you don't seem very knowledgeable hence I assume you are new to weightlifting. Here is are some good resources for you: Why Aren't You Growing? Warming Up Properly Exercise Descriptions Powerlifting Articles Database Powerlifting Articles Description Also, if you have some money which you don't want to waste on supplements, I advise you to invest it in the following two books: Basic Barbell Training Practical Programming Cheers and Good Luck |
what would be the point of wearing a belt if it wasn't tight ?

back to your original question: velcro belts are good however they arent very good at heavier weights. old school leather belts are way better in these strength-training scenarios. IMO velcro belts kinda suck. |
I agree. With heavy weights the velcro belt does not do as well as a buckle (plus the thought of the velcro coming loose is not pleasant) IMO which is why when I do use a belt it has a buckle. :weights:
