Question by Husko Avoirdupois: Is it dangerous to do dead lifts without a weight belt?
For example, would it put too much strain on my back, or will my body just adjust to not wearing the weight belt so long as I use good lifting form?
Best answer:
i do not use a belt except for my heaviest lifts.. proper form is paramount.. if you break form just once, you may pay for it with a lower back injury that will sideline you for months.. my advice is to use a belt for all your heavy lifts, if you want to go beltless, keep it to your warm up sets and lighter weight workouts with higher reps. on heavy days, wear your belt..
