IT have nothing to do with the belt tight or not, it's about controling the weight and keeping your abs tight not leaving them on the lose, all whut i am sayin don't be like"i have got a belt i can do $hit technique and not **** up my lower back" no it will make it even worse.

Beleive me.. my technique is good, not a problem with technique.

The question I was asking was...

I've always heard that the belt should be tight. However, is this the case for deadlifts aswell? If the belt is tight on me for deadlifts, there is no possible way of me properly tightening my abs properly due to the belt being in the way, that's what I was getting at.
