    Serious question. What point do you all decide that a support belt is required? The body must "tell" you??

    Love the caption: "squat like a girl"

    She even goes outside the safety. Not the first time she's done that weight obviously. Impressive.

    I think it depends on what you are trying to do. When I was younger and did a lot of powerlifting-type training, I wore a belt on every set except warm up. I never went over 6 reps and rarely over 5. The goal was to move as much weight as explosively as possible.

    Now, I usually don't use a belt. I feel like squatting (and deadlifting) without a belt helps to strengthen the stabilizers involved in the lifts. These days, I concentrate on the quality of the contraction rather than the total weight moved. I only use a belt when I am going as heavy as possible in the 3-5 rep range with the goal of concentrating solely on the primary movers. I don't do this very often because of the recovery time and risk of injury involved.
