Guys.. Wearing a belt whilst deadlifting, a must or just a pre-cautionary step?

• if you has a weak core. Using a weight belt masks this problem. not really recommend

• use only for sets above 85% of 1RM and not with all lifts. Never wear a belt when performing an exercise that has you sitting or lying down.

I see. Thanks for the article.

"Never wear a belt when performing an exercise that has you sitting or lying down" I always see two dudes who'd always wear belt during chest day.

For me, wearing a belt limits my breathing. It's harder to breath, especially during exercises which bumps my heart rate up a lot.

Is it okay if I never wear a belt on and develop my core instead?
