Member 3330, 111 posts SQ 140, BP 110, DL 185 435.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq	Why do some people wear a neoprene belt and a leather belt over the top of it? I've seen loads of people wearing the Singlet suits and wondered why?

Aiming for a 250 squat by the end of 2012 Member 1989, 3168 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 270 650.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq	A guy at our gym used to have a neoprene belt and a 'proper' belt over the top. The neoprene one keeps the warmth in the lower back, while the leather belt gives support. Well that was his reason anyways.

I work as a boner Member 3115, 490 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 300 680.0 kgs @ 132kgs Eq	Post Edited: 02.02.2012 @ 18:38 PM by bertie The neoprene belt keeps warmth in you're back which saves you pulling it due to the muscles being cold. Like he said and beat me to it.

stingy with his letters Member 496, 668 posts SQ 210, BP 190, DL 230 630.0 kgs @ 111kgs UnEq	i do it too, feels better, i think the neoprene belt seems to make the 'proper belt' fit better, and more compact.

embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275 650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq	I do it for the reasons listed above and to hold my belly in so I don't look like quite so much of a fat c**t.

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291 727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq	I used to do this when the gym we trained at was really cold in winter, it definately helped keep the back warm between lifts and in general felt very good.

a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290 770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq	i do this for the following reason s 1) keep warmth in the lower back. 2) Feels better with the ratchet belt 3) stopps the Uber Keg spilling all over the place but with the leaver belts i remove the Neorene and just work with the belt on its own but keep it on with the lever undone
