Plates on a dip belt, just like you did.
Rip,
You say here that after you get used to your bodyweight when doing hanging traction, it helps to add load.
Bodyweight wasn't doing much today, so I added a 45lb plate to a dip belt today, and the decompression and pain relief was much better - thanks for the tip.
How have you loaded these incrementally in the past, and what loads have you found to be most effective?
Thanks,
Will.

Thanks.
How much weight have you tried this with? 135lb or so on the belt seems like it'd be fine.
Hi Rip, just wondering if it's possible to do this by hanging as if doing pull-ups, instead of using two weightlifting belts. I'm asking this 'cause I only have one belt.
Depends on how strong your grip is.
Yes, two shitty belts being prohibitively expensive for everyone but me.
I found a cheaper alternative. They are called 'ab straps'.
Cheaper than $20 belts?
