Lifting Belts

[ButtMuncher]

I need some help in finding A good lifting belt.

I am a big guy so I need a big belt, I can not get one at the local sporting goods store as they are not large enough


I have a 46" waist and about 50" across the middle,

( i also have a 59" chest so I am not shaped completly like a pear)

Any help or sources for this will be great

hell I know I am a big guy. but it paid for my college and has helped me more than hurt me up until now. I am getting too old for this much weight

I quit using my belt and my back has gotten stronger and my dead lifts are better. I don't think you really need a belt.

You can get a powerlifting belt custom made for about 80-100 bucks. I did this because I wanted and extra long handle to help me squeeze my guts out.

What college did you play for and what position?

large school in texas, i would rather not say, because I have made comments on here and other boards about my college playing days and things we took.

Offensive guard

That's understandable.

Been lifting for 5 years and never use a belt.

All the people I see in the gym using belts are the 160 lb Frat boys with wife-beaters on thinking the belts help them with bi-curls and bench.

Just hit the deads and hyper-extensions, you wont need a belt.

I need a belt for squat and any very heavy lifting. I use to compete in powerlifting years ago and I have been lifting for over 20 years so I know I do not need a belt for most lifting but I have also had 3 hernias over the years so I do need to be prepared. And I am seriously thinking about getting back into competing again because now I qualify for the sub-masters.
