It's also relatively unique as far as squat assistance work goes in that you can load it very heavy, but not have any of that load compressing the spine. Very often it's one or the other

The real question is who is that fine lady squatting 3 plates?

This question probably has a host of different answers depending on context, but what is the best implementation of the belt squat in a weightlifting style program? Same frequency as squats? Higher volume or focus on intensity to push strength?

No axial fatigue on the belt squat

Also they good if you want to avoid load on your lower back for any reason,, i use those to help train my boy (he got herniated discs).

You have to load the belt squat more because it's a lever. Like 40% more at least.

It's great for a disabled person with a neurological condition. They can hold their hands for balance support.

My old gym had a nice custom made belt squat but I didn't use it much Current gym has one but it feels wrong, as I squat down it seems to push me back then when I stand up it pulls me back in

Good way to get lots of squat volume without getting that volume in the low back too

They're great but who has access to them?

I do, at a typical Hammer strength style gym. I'd imagine a gym near you has one as well. Otherwise a goblet deficit type thing could work, I think it's called Ukranian Deadlift but don't quote me on that.

For your home gym: loading pin, chain, plates, belt, cinder blocks...
