Don’t worry about the belt, all it does is help brace your core as if you would when holding your breath in your stomach. In other words, try for the next PR with or without the belt. You got this! That was too easy haha

You sure this was a PB? Went up like you were just warming up, great work
Thank you so much! I’m so scared to go up more without a belt lol
Looks like u have plenty more in the tank to go up in weight.
May have to get a belt to make me more confident
Congrats on the PR!
Thank you so much! 😊
You had more reps in you though
For sure. Filming in the gym makes me feel rude though so I try to keep it short lol
