Are lifting belts a symptom of autism?

this is some advanced niggerposting

>no belt, squat 275x5 and feel gud
>use belt, hit 305x5 but feel like my head is gonna blow off

what is the point

>>36928984
go master bait in the privacy of your own room, please

I've gone back and forth for belts. I've been told to not use one for sub-max squats but it seems to help me push more.

belts literally do nothing

Is spouting over-abused words a sign of mental retardation?

>>36929031
Have you never used one?

>>36929049
I've pulled 200kg beltless, I'm qualified to speak on this.

>>36929031
Your inability to utilize one doesn't mean belts don't serve a function.

>>36929065
>my dl is not impressive at literally any weight class unless you're a woman
>that makes me qualified to speak on this

>>36929065
So you never use a belt? Why

>>36929031

>>36928984

I could use one just fine, but it doesn't do anything except maybe hold your fat gut in.

>>36929096
pic related, faggot nigger. I am almost to "elite".

>>36929178
an elastic waistband?

>>36929065
yeah, you know you can probably hit that for triples if you use a belt properly right?

using a belt allows you to move more poundage/more volume which pretty much equals more gains

you's a dumb nigga lol

belts are dumb

if you can't do the weight, you can't do the weight. stop trying to ego-lift.

Not that anyone here but me does it but it's great for competitive kettlebell. Makes a nice shelf for resting and helps long cycle.

Only if you're lifting babbys weight. Saw some dude squatting 135 with a belt the other day, like wtf honestly

Don't get me wrong I haven't even hit 2pl8 but Jesus, 135 and using a belt just seems retarded

>>36928984
I see the best of the best wearing them any time they lift over 200kgs, so in that case, no.

Never see them wearing them for lighter stuff

>>36929188
>67kg

Your squat got 35lbs heavier.

>>36931459
you memeing me with this math?

>>36931529
>implying doing 30 extra lbs for the same reps isn't at least a 35 total increase for estats
