Starting Strength Houston

On this day we honor the sacrifice made by those who have fallen.

When the whole family trains together! 3 different people, 3 different goals - 1 starting point. Whatever your objective is, resistance training is the best place to start. Stronger is Better!

Not today, not today…

Of all the supplements you can take for your health, iron is by far the best. And you only need to take it 3x/week. Stronger is Better.

The belt…why do we use this? When performing compound lifts like the squat, press, and deadlift weight is moved my exerting force against it and the ground. The more rigid the components are that move the weight, the more efficient the lift. The spine is designed to move but is also supported by a large quantity of muscles and ligaments to keep it rigid when necessary (like when lifting something heavy).

The belt simply provides proprioceptive feedback allowing a stronger contraction of these muscles. This, in turn, allows you to brace harder and ultimately move a little bit more weight. So you can see why it would be an effective tool for strength training.

What are your thoughts on using a belt for lifting?
