General Question Guys.
I own a Inzer Hardcore Suit.
Generally I bought a long time ago 4 years or so. It was tight way back when, and is tight now. But doing a suit test today, It felt like I did not have any support in the hips?
So is more Ideal to have all of the. support in the hips/groin/leg. region? Because i really hate to have to order a suit based on my Weight.

Were you wearing your belt? I find my suit fits a bit loose in the hips until I put on my belt then it snugs everything up. Also, you can modify the suit by taking in the seam of the suit at just the hip area. My wife sews and she took in my deadlift suit and it feels perfect. I would however use an experienced seamstress if you don't know anyone who is handy with a sewing machine. There is usually a tailor in the mall. I know there is one at Polo Park.

Forgot to mention, it gives me a great pull with no belt when doing deadlift. Seems I get more support for deadlift rather than squat.
But no haven't used my belt, and don't use my belt in the hip area. I use my belt more on above my navel.

Got myself a new RAGE X in a smaller size now. one that should fit snuggly this time as well.
I'll probably play around with some other suits and stuff for now as well. I was thinking of trying a 2-ply federation as well. sometime next year.

Derek I've lifted in a couple 2ply meets and they generally do not use 2 ply poly shirts but rather denim shirts which are a whole new ball game.. Harv

Yeah I can see that. Research lots before I make my decisions usually. In the process I am still deciding things out and training just casually right now. Maintaining rather than improving lifts right now.
I was thinking about the Karen Klien double ply, but also me being an Inzer guy I was thinking of the Double ply Grid stitch denim as well.
So Who knows. I have a little money to play with until next year. so I will experiment!
