TRAINING SHOES VS RUNNING SHOES 2024 (An Inside Look!)
READ TRAINING VS RUNNING SHOES: thatfitfriend.com/training-sh...
At That Fit Friend, I'm a big proponent of rotating your footwear based on what you're doing. I look at performance shoes as tools.
When it comes to training shoes versus running shoes a lot of folks will use them interchangeably and this can be sub-optimal. As you get more specific and serious with your training, your footwear gets increasingly more important.
To help highlight this, I pit training shoes against running shoes, cut my pairs open, and explain why you'll want to use the right shoes for your workouts.
0:00 Intro
0:24 Should you lift in running shoes?
2:46 Which should you use for cross-training?
4:41 Can you run in training shoes?
6:20 Training Vs Running Shoes Cut In Half
9:20 Final Thoughts
When push comes to shove, you can technically wear whatever shoes you want for your workouts, but that doesn't mean it's the best idea to do so.
For example, if you're taking your strength workouts seriously then you'll want to explore a good pair of training shoes.
If you're running higher volumes, then invest in a good pair of running shoes and save yourself the discomfort battle.

I used to be that person that wore running shoes for everything. My parents weren’t able to buy me more than 1 pair back in the day so I had no choice 😂. No wonder squat, lunges, and any leg exercise that wasn’t running or machine presses, felt like shit. My ankle would wobble so much. Definitely buying the drop set 2’s. Especifically for squatting/leg day. I still use running shoes as daily’s tho for walking, runs, and grocery shopping. I’m only doing legs 2x a week so.
And here in my country i see 90% of people use running shoes in the gym for everything. 😢I was one of them. They need to watch this.

Same...these are low-key two of my favorite shoes atm for running and lifting
Nice shoe choice. Boston 12 are my go-to running shoe and I just got the Dropset 2 for the gym. Never used to lift in proper lifting shoes growing up. I feel like shoes have become a little more optimized for different purposes today than 5-10 years ago.

Boston 12s are sick. Been loving mine...sad I cut them for this video NGL. It's cool seeing how far shoes/biomechanics have come!
Pretty cool. Are you gonna do a cut in half review of the Dropset 2?

I'd go for a running shoe if you like a plusher ride. Trainers for long walks that I like include RAD ONE and Haze Trainer!

Running shoes are awful for leg exercises like squats and lunges in the gym, training shoes are simply a requirement.

Yeah, I'm with you there. Better to invest in the right tools out of the gate then "wait" until you need them, imo.
Jake is that brainy Sigma type fit friend. You never said anything about walking isn't a trainer a better barefoot transition shie

LOL, I guess I'll take that? It can to some extent depending on stack height and midsole density. That can be an entirely separate video, though!
