Using straps really comes down to your goals. If your goal is bodybuilding and hypertrophy; then use straps all you want. Your grip is more likely to fail before a huge muscle group like your back; so use straps to get the most out of your movement. If your goal is strength and powerlifting; skip the straps. It's always best to train the same way you will compete, and there are no straps in powerlifting.

Agreed with Wes. As for belt, if using it, cinch it up! The reason it is there is to provide intra-abdominal pressure. So either wear it right or don't wear it
