Best Weightlifting Shoes for Powerlifting & Crossfit - Heavy Duty Lifting Footwear for Deadlifts, Squats & Weight Training - Gym Shoes for Men & Women - Perfect for Home Gym & Professional Training

So I was reading “Bigger Leaner Stronger’ by Mike Matthews and he had shoes as one of his nice to have items on his bonus material. I decided to try and see if it made a difference.The shoes are very nice Velcro straps and great color scheme. The key though is that the bottom ms are super solid and slightly angled. So if you do any leg exercise you feel like your foot is solidly planted with zero movement. Switching back to my regular workout shoes you automatically feel the difference. I think this helps you stabilize and feel the muscle mus h more especially for calf training that I included pics of.I decided to wear this though for all my weightlifting exercises. When doing upper body where you need to stand such as shoulder lateral raises you really feel much more solidly planted. I also felt like dumbbell rows were much better supported as well.So do you need these? No you can still workout without them. But does it help? Yes - I think it helps you focus more on the muscles you care about and put you into the mindset that you are fully there to workout.
