The truth about belts (and why everyone else is WRONG). 

Really enjoyed this video. would be really interested in a video around the theme of common nutrition errors or nutrition tips. e.g. underrated or overrated foods, things we care about too much or don't pay attention to. are homemade smoothies a terrible way of consuming fruit etc. Would also be interested in your take on steady state cardio vs HIIT, and long term clinical significance of various levels of cardiovascular fitness - being able to run 10 miles vs only a couple- in an otherwise healthy and relatively strong person.

Jordan Feigenbaum I know you are a starting strength coach and most likely do not condone any changes to the program. But do you have every trainee do power cleans ? I do them my self and when I did the novice program I did them. But for a novice would it not be more productive to deadlift once a week , rather than every 5th workout? Due to the fact that the absolute weight it rather low, one would imagine that at this level they could get away with more frequent training of the deadlift. Just curious of your thoughts. Thank you

Would like some data on weightlifting shoes. I absolutely love mine but would like some explanation around it. Fucking waaaaaaay over 2 minutes but worthwhile.

Jordan, I've tried using a belt so many times, but I always bruise and it actually feels like my ribs get crushed when squatting. I've tried varying tightness and location and always the same effect: lots of pain/bruising. Consequently, I squat beltless. I'm not sure if I'm alone in this, but if I'm not, would love to hear your opinions, especially from a medical perspective. Thanks! :)

Neil Sneddoncrest loooooool

10/10, would LOL again.

Joel it'll be on Saturday and 13 minutes

Haha too much Nuance™

Why not Ten minute Tuesdays lol

absolutely

,

Stop reminding me of the dissapointment. Lol

"Oh I train powerlifting on the moon, in an exoskeleton, I can lift more that way. Not a crutch tho"

Lu Tze Training on the moon is definitely NOT a crutch. Do you know how hard a 50000 ton deadlift is?? I do them every 6 weeks during my "transmutation" block and the gainzzz have been stellar

Great question ! Not sure if you are serious or sarcastic Ha Ha.

No effect.

Tight enough so it doesn't move, but loose enough to get a full breath.

My guess would be you are either wearing it tompo tight which isnt allowing you to fully breath into your belly which in turn makes you feel less stable. Or, you might have a short torso which is causing the belt to pinch your skin against the belt and on a rib or hip bone when you hip hinge. Fixing the first problem obviously dont wear the belt to tight, fixing the second would be getting a narrower belt, or wearing your belt a little higher on your waist when you hip hinge. Otherwise maybe you just need to practice breathing into your belly, focusing on expanding your belly, obliques and lower back against the belt. But hopefully one of the Dr's gives you an actually educated answer!

Thanks, David!

David Van Legendary training your rear delts doesn't help save your shoulders? What kind of dumbassery is that?

@@Matt-ey7pk correct one

Dianabol, Anavar, Trenbolone.

Tren hard, eat clen, anavar give up!

Vitamin S.

Dave I think that it’s pretty uncomfortable to wear compared to the 10mm and maybe a little overkill, but I wouldn’t argue against getting a 13mm belt either

Thanks for the reply Doctor. This video came at exactly the right time. Since the new year I've been debating whether to get a 10mm or 13mm pioneer belt.

I suspect some aren't prepared to deal with the wear in time. I've got the 10mm rogue powerlifting belt and I'm thinking about another belt after 6-8 months. It's just not supportive enough. (my Max deadlift is only 410 pounds, take that into account)

Rogues belts also arent the best quality either. If you got like an Inzer or a Pioneer( I love Pioneer) a 10mm would be better. I have a 13mm though and will probably never get a 10mm

Dave I have a Pioneer, Inzer, and two Best belts. The Best belts are the best made, followed by the Inzer and then the Pioneer. I was pretty unimpressed with the quality of the Pioneer in all aspects, the hardware, stitching, and materials. I bought it several years ago so maybe they have improved but having a high level of customization on an inferior product wasn’t worth the trade off.

Yes, of course because you are building in strength in all of your muscles involved in the unbelted lift and getting stronger at the genereal movement (which is similar belted and unbelted)

That's the case for me, but I'm a relatively new lifter, so as long as life isn't screwing with my training, all my lifts tend to go up anyway.

Love best belts

It bears repeating, haha.

Yea I didn't have my lights with me and my place is DARRRRRK. I agree though, need more exposure and thanks for the PP tip! Couldn't figure out how to do that.

Just remembered Adobe changed the text/title tool, title tool no longer there. But to align, its under Graphics tab at the top, (while editing the text) you should see Align and Transform to the right and its the first two icons underneath. On a creative note, if you've never edited or shot video before, you've done a great job and are learning fast. Keep making videos and thanks for always sharing and taking the time to share all your knowledge.

MAGA MAN belts aren’t for helping back injuries. watch the video.

Boey DaFUnk yep, Bob’s has a good product as well.

Mauro Romero ok Mauro, I'll taken your written word for it. Thanks 😂

I like wearing one on bench, yes. It's definitely personal preference for sure.
