 You have to start lifting at some point right? I never had a real problem with "twinks" in the gym. I figured, well at least they are in the gym trying. I do have problems with twinks who walk around acting big and tough and not having any respect for other members.

QFT. I have a problem with people, twink or big, who train standing next to the weight rack.

Yea it's more about their annoying mannerisms, loudness and wearing clothing that shows off their "muscles" they don't yet have.

I actually see this a lot where i live, but they wear the belt so loose it's not supporting anything.

I was the same way though, i remember after only a few months of lifting i went to the local sporting goods store and purchased one of those cheap leather belts.

I like to bring a lifting belt to wear over my shoulder like it's a wrestling championship belt.

You will when you fuck up your back the first time.

True. i bought my belt firt time I fucked up my back squatting. Three months after I stopped wearing it. Still sleeping in my gym bag I think. Never needed it after.

Hmmm great idea, I should try that.

I wear a belt for the following:

Heavy Squats
Havey Deadlifts or rack pulls
Heavy Standing Calf Raises
Heavy Press Behind Neck or front presses
Heavy Dumbell Presses.
Heavy Hack Squats

Note that the operative word here is "heavy" - if you're not training heavy for any sets of the above exercises then no need to wear the belt in my opinion. The rest of the time it should be used. Don't try and be a hero and train without one.

I hardly ever wear a tank top in the gym,only in the summer,and when I first started lifting I never,ever wore a tank top,just t-shirts.
twinks that dress accordingly don't bother me but twinks in wife beaters and their skin tight sleevless Under Armour get mocked :)

Definitely bring a belt but just don't wear it constantly like on light warm-ups and non back/leg exercises. You'll never develop those muscles and be more prone to injuries.

I started a thread on "gloves in the gym" about a year ago.  %80 including me were against them, and the other %20 are gay.

Then i will try to summarize the thread: true getbiggers train in a coverall, that shows nothing from their naked skin, no gloves or belts are permitted...
... Ive just one question: what about callused palm? Ladies don't really like that on their pussies if they aren't used to rednecks. Or they should just STFU and be happy that a real getbigger touched their genital organ?

Didn't you see my picture with my girlfriend? I thought Sevastase did a better work, and made sure everybody saw it. He posted it in around 10 threads, for a reason i do not understand... Go find one of them, and do not questionate my pussy getting abilities "Hulkotron"...

used iron, like at a commercial gym, is wore and doesn't cause calluses on most people. So gloves are pointless. but, if your have delicate fairy hands go head and wear gloves.
FYI, most redneck jobs require gloves.

Never been a fan of the gloves, i would feel like a big pussy if a girl ever told me i have soft hands, the belt i do use when i deadlift or squat past 455lb.
Used the knee wraps when i squated 500lb but felt like a douche bag that i left them in the gym locker for a freebie whoever wanted them.

the worst one is the guy with the fork lift back support belt while he hammers out 30lb dumbell rows one knee on the bench ::)

there is an old man at my gym that wears one all the time. And all he does at the gym is run on the treadmill. i think he might have back problems, but old dude can fast jog for a hour straight tho.
