How much do you have to lift to be able to wear lifting shoes and not look like a faggot?
>>39539857
probably just get them if you want
a guy yesterday in the next rack was squatting, maybe, 215 and was wearing shoes
his deadlift wasn't heavy either and he didn't seem to be worried about looking like a faggot
If anything you need them ASAP because your flexibility will be poor.
I got oly shoes and I am dyel
I did it because I was really struggling with form and my friend said oly shoes helped him
My squat still sucks, but I am slowly progressing.
>lifting in shoes
natty card revoked. Do you think hercules wore oly shoes when he ripped the Hydra to shreds? Nah brah, take those shoes off and lift like an Olympian god.

>215
Yeah man 475lbs is a decent squat, shoes are fine there

Chances are you'll look like a try hard faggot if you do get them and a half assed poorfag if you don't
Get them if you squat better with them on then get them, but don't have $100 shoes and a 10 cent squat

>the guy smiling in the back

>>39540027
I think he meant lbs

Honestly man… Insecure faggots are gonna test you regardless of what you do.
If you need shoes, get them.
I'm 6'4" with long femurs. I wish that i'd have gotten adipowers earlier. I even got the autistic colour, cuz fuck the haters.
>I'm 6'4" with long femurs
Same desu and fwiw I squat just fine in flats

But if you want a faggy answer… you probably won't even know if you require lifting shoes till you're reping 225lbs. and everybody is gonna see you as a casual lifter until you're reping 315lbs. so… yeah.

All I can do is take your word on that I guess man. But I know that I hit depth easier, and with no knee pain. So i'm glad that I have them.
