Raw I only wear a belt for my heaviest sets..... depending on how I feel.
In gear I use it for everything.
The big thing is that most people misuse a belt. They try to cinch it down and think it'll support their back.
That won't help much. A belt doesn't help the back muscles as much as it does the abs. Get the belt snug and just push your belly out in to the belt. That bracing out in to the belt is what provides most of your support.
