Pushing out on belt, the diaphragm is working. It creates that pressure inside your trunk and creates the stability. The diaphragm is a muscle, if you work it hard and heavy, it's going to grow just like any other muscle. It's inside you though, and no one can see it, so when it grows, space needs to be created for it, so it pushes all the other organs like the intestines out of the way and you get a distended stomach. A huge power belly is a sign of great strength, it's just that the big muscle is inside of you and so you falsely look fat.
@anytingbu dude, i deadlift and squat all the time now when i dl 405 with a belt or do it without it makes no difference in difficulty so maybe for u it helps but for me it doesnt do shit except make sure i keep my spine straight
@matinhewing1 no they both juice. derek is a professional strongman and evan is a professional bodybuilder. you wont survive in either if you dont juice
@dirtydutch71 they arent pro powerlifters lol, dont you recognize them? derek poundstone is a strongman and evan is a bodybuilder. no powerlifters here.
@280strongsick Belts make ur gut stronger? thats so wrong its hilarious..u can use more weight..because you have a crutch keeping your core tight, instead of YOU doing it....i could care less how much a guy lifts if he's wearing 1 or more things that allow you to lift more. raw is 10 billion times more impressive cuz thats 100% them
@Robeldinho10 Hab jetzt keine Lust ausführlich zu übersetzten. Zusammengefaßt: Sie haben sich über Gürtel unterhalten und Derek glaubt, dass Leute die regelmäßig Gürtel tragen, keine schmale Taille mehr haben, weil sie den Bauch nach aussen gegen den Gürtel drücken. Evan leuchtet das ein und er fühlt sich mit Gürtel sowieso nicht wohl und hat noch nie einen benutzt, räumt aber ein, dass Powerlifter von einem Gürtel profitieren (Stabilität).
