Brian, were you planning on coming downtown, or are you doing it up there?
I was planning on coming downtown. I think Scott said Monday was CFT? Does 7pm work for everyone?
perfect!
Great, I'm looking forward to it. I've a quick question inspired by that video though. The weight belt doesn't seem to do all that much, but I understand that it's used quite widely in things like power lifting.
This article reviews several other studies that tested them and found little (if any) benefit to using them. They mention that the belts could help during power lifting but the evidence is not conclusive
" EMG methods are controversial themselves for evaluating muscle activity, especially during dynamic
contractions.
Isolation movements such as stabilized back extensions are different from functional closed chain movements
(squat, deadlift) and generalizations may not be appropriate."
So, I was wondering if anyone had any other information on how effective they were.
