I was looking this topic up and your video was the first to come up. Very informative. I’m opting for chucks or vans and you basically helped me decide to go that route. I currently do a full body workout from chris jones (Pumpchasers) and I think the chucks or the vans for me will work well for my back squats and deadlifts. Appreciate the video.

Nice video straight to the point. Thanks. I've been rocking my work socks for all my lifts haha.

I honestly didn't know about the shoes being important while squatting. THANKYOU for the info, it will definitely come in handy as i am getting back into the gym this week

Omg. Thank you. I have been asking this question since I started doing StrongLifts 5x5 a year ago.

Awesome advice cheers help a lot.

I also love classic puma vikky sneakers in addition to my chucks. They have awesome flat rubber footbed.

This video was very helpful, was using sneakers for lifting and I am starting to feel unstable in them.

Thanks for this, have ordered some converse style shoes for the gym. Had my first session today and only had my running shoes, which is not ideal!!

Thanks Danny. Love the flat training shoes myself. As always you are so explanatory.. keep it up💪

I have been doing all of my lifting and gym work in a basic Puma and love them. Nice flex in the foot. Pretty flat heal to toe and low top. They really do it all well with just enough insole cousin to be comfortable

Yes ! I just asked in comments too if pumas flat brands were also good to lift in

Don’t know why but that shoe toss at the start had me cracking up 😂 I wonder if that took more than 1 take

Super useful, cheers mate

Yes bro, you are right!

Great video & I agree ! Quick question, I have some flat brand pumas, do you think those are also ok to lift in? 🤔 I even but them besides pair of some converse I also have trying to compare them

Very helpful.

I put on some high top converse few years ago and never looked back. Best decision I’ve made for working out

Thank you for the recomendation, I was using a heavy cushioned shoe to the gym and it was killing me, now moved to a pair of Puma Roma and the upgrade was huge.

Timely video Danny cuz just last night i did kinda 2 workouts in one one. A Full Body Db workout which I use my NIKE dsx reppers old crosstrainers flats. I use these all purpose Nike crossfit type shoes not for running. I decided to do front squats with the sneaker u had in the video Adidas powerlifts shoes different color though, it keeps me upright very vertical on front squats which are designed for that, its like Heels vs Flats. The Sole is stable so it bears the brunt well on squats front and back esp. heavy squat. Front squats are never easy for me no matter what shoe, its the hardest exercise in the gym i dont see it done often. I dont like the squat shoe for deadlift because it tilts u forward increasing the angle of dead pull but it can be used at high volume/lighter weights

Very helpful info

Gonna join the gym in 2days , thx for the video

Nice Video and i noticed that I have the exact same type of weightlifting shoes!!

Thanks!

i was planing to buy new shoes as one of my old shoes are teared up & thanks for guiding danny. i was confused which one to buy

Sulaiman Lalani Let ya know what you end up getting!

I think the vans canvas old school is a pretty good shoe as well.

I wear Adidas Powerlifts for Leg/squat training and Ryderwear or Iron Tanks (flat soles) for everything else.

This needs updated... what about metcons, nano x, nobulls and shoes with a wider toe box for better grounding and better spread of power with the triangle shape of your foot? shoes with minimal drop and solid sole. Yes converse are ok, but there are better options with that type of sole. Sal, Adam, and Justin are all just die hard chuck taylor guys, and I don't get it... You should never sacrifice with the one thing that delivers ground force energy and keeps you balanced on your feet. Love the channel all of the info that you put out! Forever a Mind Pump fanatic

Thank you.

The information is good but what would make this video excellent would be a close up of the sneakers you're talkin about

Great video, the extra infomation on specific lift requirements really makes a difference to someone who does not know the reasons why people wear different shoes in different lifts.

Converse or old skool vans (non pro models) are the way to go.

Chuck Taylor gives the old school TRAINING vibes ( not exercise) training.

I've worn Converse Chucks for my whole life. I see the better athletes at the gym wearing them also. I just like to be able to feel the ground whether lifting or just out and about. There's nothing artificial in the feel. Man was designed to go barefoot and these are the closest to it.

high top or low top chucks?

Jackie Janvier Its OK. But it’s likely not optimal.

For me, lifting shoes makes it harder to hold front rack position doing front squats, you really have to keep your chest up and core braced. I prefer flats doing front squats

I workout in air max 270s😂 but I don’t squat or deadlift that much weight I don’t rly hit prs just reps

Some skate shoes work quite well actually. You have to be careful though they have sandpaper to stand on we either have wood or cement. The shoes nike and new balance make are crap for gyms. Circa work quite well if you can find a skateshop that is a vendor. They are also made to a higher quality than DVS or Globe. I do not understand why Circa or DVS don't take an existing skate shoe and modify it slightly for weightlifting and sell a weightlifting version. The thing with actual weightlifting shoes they are like standing on a brick I had some it was better to just take my shoes off.

I always wear my Chuck's when doing leg day.
