It’s no secret that the key to an effective workout is finding the right tightness. Too loose, and you won’t get the support you need. Too tight, and you could end up hurting yourself. So how do you find that sweet spot?
Why does powerlifting belt tightness matter?
Wearing a weightlifting belt too loose can result in the belt slipping during lifts, which can be dangerous. On the other hand, wearing a weightlifting belt too tight can restrict breathing and cause discomfort. The ideal tightness for a weightlifting belt is when the belt is snug against the body but does not impede breathing.
