Should my son, a 14 year old 165 lb beginner use a Weight Lifting Belt? He is benching around 200lbs and getting a good 6+ reps with 225 lbs in the squat. He has been working on great technique as supervised by a trainer.

I was taught 35 years ago that a good weight lifting belt was a necessity. My son has been told that it's not necessary at this point in his training.

Your thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
