Weight belts when deadlifting heavy?  There are two beliefs behind wearing a weight belt when deadlifting.  One belief is that the belt will prevent your support muscles from strengthing during the lift.  The second belief is that the belt will allow you to use more of your support muscles as you push against it with your abdomen during the lift.  The bottom line is the the weight belt goes a long way when protecting your back during a heavy deadlift.
