/fit/ how much do I need to deadlift before I can use The Belt™?

At least like 5 plate, you should never do working sets with belt just very heavy 1RMs

>do you want to be stronger and lift heavier
get a belt
>do you want to be weaker and not lift as heavy
don't get a belt

that's literally it, there is zero downside to them.

Clarence would like a word with you

I know it's gay, but I'm kind of worried about people laughing at me cause I only deadlift 185lbs. I know I shouldn't let that affect my decision, but I'm just asking what would you guys say if you saw someone in a belt deadlifting that much weight?

'Wow that guy isn't such an insecure little faggot beta cuc.k bitch that he didn't use a belt just because he thought it would look silly!'

>>39611001
Clarence explained he doesnt use a belt because he didnt like the look of them. That's all. Stop being retarded.

That guys a fuckin idiot, he thinks he'll get strong by buying things. If he just had proper form and ate enough he'd be at at least 3 pl8 in no time.

How does the belt help? Not denying it does just genuinely curious of the mechanism going on

>I don't care what other people think of me

it's a basic psychological need famb. nice edge though.

If you feel like you need a belt before 2pl8 diddly then you need to eat more and/or work on your form

>>39611011
I'm almost at 3 pl8 no belt. Plan to invest in one after I secure the PR.

>>39611050
I don't need one I'm still progressing fairly quickly, I've just never tried one and wondering when I should consider trying one.

>>39611063
Don't even start to think about it until you finish linear progression

4pl8 never used belt
