I mean it's not a requirement to lift with a belt.
Konstantīns Konstantinovs deadlifted without.

You will still grow and get stronger without the advantages of a belt. A belt does help and add to lifting but it's not required.

Either get used to a new belt and break it in or buy a used belt. Or don't use one at all. If you don't want the extra benefit from a belt don't because it's uncomfortable don't use.

I mean I've done a pull with 450 without a belt and I'm not strong like most of the guys here. Do whatever makes you most comfortable while lifting.

You will want to do a peaking program that will guide you up to the week before the meet.

Use the belt to slap the fuck out of @nissan11 - that will help break it in.

Depending on the meet, you can compete raw and not have to worry about the knee wraps.
Best advice so far. Belts arnt used for lifting... they are used for beating brothers.

What is a peaking program?

As it sounds. A program designed around working you up to a max single in each lift.

I liked that video, gave me an understanding of the concept of peaking and the logic behind it vs. Nissan11 just yelled about it with obscenities sprinkled in.

I remebered to wear my belt and tried out thr knee wraps for the first time for my squats yesterday. I did 4x5 at 225, felt good and was able to do 1x4 at 275. Surprised myself.

Nissan do not lead your brother to the same joke of an organization that you have chosen for yourself. Find a federation that doesn't have rules for what kind of fucking UNDERWEAR you are allowed to wear while competing. Find another option, any other option, in North Carolina. Here's a few:

If you were just USAPL boys I could probably make a concession. Since you are USAPL bois we must now fight to the death.

@nissan11 don’t ignore me. I’m coming for you. You’d better have an extra pair of USAPL approved underwear cause your gonna shit the first pair when I get there. I’m bringing 3 meter knee wraps and an OG Leviathan squat suit too. And maybe an erector shirt too just for fun. I’m gonna make you and your brother into multiply powerlifting loving sons of bitches!
