This is fricking cringe. You realize there's no performance advantage to wearing "gym shoes" and everything you're describing is pure pageantry?
This is no different than gym thots obsessing over outfits except unlike gym thots, no one is ever going to notice or care what you're wearing at the gym. You're wasting your money and twisting up your self understanding at the same time
Ok you need to take them off and switch back to your regular glasses when you arrive. You looks literally moronic man, c’mon. Also heres a wild idea get some contacts.

Do people actually wear those? I went to the eye doctor to try some out one time and made a total fool out of myself because I couldn't keep my eyes open to put one in. I hear they're a b***h to take out too.

I’ve worn them for a decade, no issues yet. I even wear them overnight, you just gotta get the better ones for a little more money. I find as long as I take them out for a few hours and overnight every couple days it’s no problem. And even if you don’t the only issue I’ve noticed is your eyes get used to them and it feels weird/dry without them (if you’ve been wearing them too long without a break) >hard to take out
With just a little practice they’re extremely easy to take out, putting them in is slightly more difficult but also becomes routine. Your mileage may vary based on eye size and sensitivity but I’ve done it so much it only takes like 1 min to do.
cmon bro, that guy is ripped. People need to be more positive. Lots of people just want to have a body like that. Not everyone's trying to be 280 and ripped.
Nice trips. Disregard the fat discord trannies trying to diminish your spirit.
Assuming you started out a lanklet, you have made a very difficult natty transformation. Mad resoect, bro.
Most lanklets come here to complain that they cant gain muscle even tho they eat a full bowl of Lucky Charms every morning, and then proceed to defend their refusal to eat anything else and any amount that could possibly contribute to muscle gain.

yes but his lift numbers especially the squat and DL are unironically teenager entering the gym for the first time tier, he shouldn't give lifting advice
Well you’re wrong, any lift where you need to draw from the legs you’re going to get more power with shoes on and it would moronic to state otherwise, plus the sole can help out with balance so you can lift more at the expense of stabilising muscles
All these shoes have lifted heels, which fricks your balance and reduces max power. Look at what actual power lifters wear. The soles are thin an perfectly flat.
>You realize there's no performance advantage to wearing "gym shoes"
flat shoes with hard soles (chucks, vans, barefoot, work boots, etc) are better for power delivery and stability than any kind of running or other padded shoe
squat/oly shoes make squat easier
>foamy extra padded israeli “running” shoes.
its amazing how people dont understand that the entire design of a running shoe is the opposite of what you want for lifting
If you have a pair of formal shoes with a leather heal, those usually have a solid for lifting with a mild .5" heel for more stable squats. You can use an old pair of Oxfords or something.
yeezys are the most based lifting shoe
350s for soft sole and 500s for hard sole

whaever goes best with my /faIST outfit for the gym, but the 350 v2 are my favorite ones, not for legday tho, for squats you would need something more stable for the sole

you americans can keep your other Black person shoes
Yep I have a pair as well, they are everywhere... especially on the women. They are alright but there are better options. Discovered I hate being flat feeted for anything but DL, so now I just use my weightlifting shoes for everything and just deadlift in my socks.
yeezys only for training days where you dont need your legs or a proper stance. otherwise one of the worst and gaygiest shoes.
converse high tops are probably the overall best lifting shoes for style, comfort, stability, price.
only esception is probably using high tops for calve raises, which they can be shitty for

If you cannot lift from the earth with the soles you were born in you are weak pathetic creature and deserve to stay weak and pathetic
Is Sean O'Malley overrated? Aside from a front kick or a 2, nothing he does is particularly noteworthy. He got out-leg kicked by a midget in Yan. His hooks are night and day to his straights because they might be the slowest punches at bantamweight while his straights might be the fastest. His fancy shit only works on cans.
I dont get idiots that wear leather sneakers to the gym lol. I know jordan 1s are popular on the street but for a gym, they're terrible. Just wear a cloth sneaker that is comfortable, stable and ventilated. Yeezys cover this but I wouldnt destroy 350$ sneakers in a gym unless youre a millionaire.
I squat in reebok legacy lifters III, wear some normal ass $30 shoes that I don't think even have a brand from walmart when I do bench or OHP, and I deadlift in socks
Who has the info on pic related? I recently noticed my feet are starting to squish a little bit, so I went and bought some roomy work shoes.. but I feel like I need something now to wear to the gym. Anyone experimented with these ultra wide sneakers or barefoot shoes? Worth it or just a meme?
Not to be a barefoot shill but I really dig the cheap ones. Also jumped right in to a week long vacation with a different brand walking 15k a day and the only trouble I had was gravel trails, no real foot pain.
to quote my bro "this shoe is pure violence".
Honestly I need to cop me one pair of white classics , but again Im tired of getting white shoes , the cleaning and all , omfg... but the reeboks are easy to clean tho
my asics wrestling shoes
Wrestling shoes are comfy but you may as well go with something with individual toes like those five finger shoes
Why would you lift in Yeezys? Also i use slides mostly

Hot body, but you are weak as hell. I could overpower you so easily
>I could overpower you so easily
I've never been so offended and turned on by another man in my life
homie what are you wearing goggles for? eyepro? mirin tho
I wear them when I cycle to the gym. I used to wear regular glasses but the lenses were destroyed by road grit.
Ok you need to take them off and switch back to your regular glasses when you arrive. You looks literally moronic man, c’mon. Also heres a wild idea get some contacts.

visual proof you lift and I still suspect DYEL status
I think I did my first set of 3x5 deadlifts at 180lbs as a 140lbs teenager
I deadlifted 185lbs as a freshman… in highschool
Not bad but please censor your hair and face for obvious reasons
Looking good buddy. Keep it up!
Your bench is decent, but how come your lower body lifts are so weak?
>these are the morons arguing with you and acting like advanced, knowledgeable lifters on IST
Lmao my forearm is bigger than your torso.
cmon bro, that guy is ripped. People need to be more positive. Lots of people just want to have a body like that. Not everyone's trying to be 280 and ripped.
He looks like an old man's ballsack with the strength of a chinese teen, and tries to argue about fitness in his bogged state.

many powerlifters wear heeled weightlifting shoes moron. and all olympic weightlifters wear heeled shoes. why don't you shut the frick up?
>You realize there's no performance advantage to wearing "gym shoes"
flat shoes with hard soles (chucks, vans, barefoot, work boots, etc) are better for power delivery and stability than any kind of running or other padded shoe

This. Enjoy snapping your shit because you thought you could lift heavy with some foamy extra padded israeli “running” shoes.

I lift barefoot
Converse or vans specifically for push and leg day, if I’m running I’d put some Yeezys on other than that my main choice is crocs

Every c**t wears Vans at my gym, I guess they must be the most popular here

>I just use my weightlifting shoes for everything and just deadlift in my socks.
literally me
barefoot/socks or my cheap off brand weightlifting shoes
if you're wearing running shoes while doing any barbell compound lift you're fricking up

Why do my lifting shoes look somewhat similar with the front tilted?

Shame on your lineage for seven times seven generations
The threads are getting so bad baka
sambas are uncomfortable gazelles are superior to the sambas, most of the pluses without the minuses
I just wear some nike running shoes. I only wear my yeezys if I'm going out somewhere casual. I've got some 350 v2 zebras

just buy a size larger in normal shoes
I have wide feet and only buy extra wide shoes. Got some cheap barefoot shoes from china just for lifting and they feel comfy and stable
they're worse than squat shoes for squats, but for everything else they're fine.
This is what I use.
nice, brand?
Not to be a barefoot shill but I really dig the cheap ones. Also jumped right in to a week long vacation with a different brand walking 15k a day and the only trouble I had was gravel trails, no real foot pain.
