ASICS Matflex 4 wrestling shoes. I fucking love these. Flat, thin, firm but flexible soles, good ankle support, good floor grip.

Be sure to order one size larger than you normally wear, though, as they're pretty narrow and may be too tight if you order your normal size. I had never worn wrestling shoes before so they took some getting used to. Now, I wouldn't want to lift without them.

>>40870651
You want thin soles, not thick ones, particularly for deadlifting. The thicker your soles, the less balance you have and more ROM you have to cover.

>>40870691
Whats wrong with more ROM in deadlifts?

>>40870691
then I won't deadlift. I don't care about lifting really just want to look taller at the gym for the qts.

More vertical distance = more effort required to lift X amount of weight.

You are softly sabotaging your lifting potential. Watch any tutorial on deadlifting. Starting Strength has a YouTube channel for Christ's sake.

More rom = more muscle activation
I could lift heavier if i only squatted for 1/4 rom, does that makes 1/4 rom squats superior to full rom squats?

>no lights

>>40870848
Holy shit, this bro science.

You're supposed to work your full natural ROM when deadlifting, not an exaggerated ROM, which will fuck up your hip height and back angle when setting up the lift.

On your logic, we'd all be better off deadlifting on stilts. Baka.

>>40871060
If everyone was supposed to work the same ROM on the deadlift people would lift the plates from different starting heights to account for different limb sizes and levers. When people say someone has a really good frame for deadlifting, what they really mean is that they have an advantageous starting position starting from a 8.5inch height, which results in shorter ROM.

Of course deadlifting with as flat a sole as possible is important if you're a competitive lifter, but you're not sabotaging your progress by doing it in heels.

Same here. Honestly the best thing I can say about the Powerlifts is that they're really good looking shoes, although that really doesn't matter considering you'll only ever use them to the gym. I wish I had coughed up the extra cash and bought weightlifting shoes proper like the Romaleos or the Adipowers. I only feel a very marginal improvement in stability and leverage squatting with the Powerlifts compared to running shoes.

This is bait. We've all seen the gif.

There is no strength advantage nor hypertrophy advantage in deadlifting with an exaggerated ROM from wearing high heeled shoes/thick soles. You're just wrong.

>This is bait. We've all seen the gif.
Obviously I'm not talking about stilettos you dense fuck, I'm talking about the usual 0.3-0.75 inches you see on shoes that are designed for physical activity.

>There is no strength advantage nor hypertrophy advantage in deadlifting with an exaggerated ROM from wearing high heeled shoes/thick soles
Again, it's all dependent on levers. People have extremely variable limb lengths, but the plate radius is the same for everyone. Some people are already deadlifting at a deficit position compared to others using the exact same equipment. I'm not advocating using heels over flats, I'm saying there's no such thing as a universal ROM for the movement, so you're not deviating from the "correct range" by deadlifting in heels. Obviously if your goal is to lift as much weight as possible you should go with flats or no shoes at all, but as far as general development just do whatever's comfortable.---------

>>40871312
Oh, and just one final consideration - If heels put you at such an extreme mechanical disadvantage, Olympic lifters wouldn't be arguably the best pullers in the world.

That is literally the universal goal of deadlifting. There's no other reason to do it.

I understand everybody's anatomy is different. What you need to understand is that nobody's anatomy is ADVANTAGED by elevating the feet off the floor for deadlift. Long legs, short legs, long arms, short arms, long torso, short torso: none of these are improved by raising your body higher off the ground than necessary. You're talking out your ass.

Not everybody deadlifts in order to become better at deadlifting. You can deadlift for hypertrophy purposes or for the carryover strength benefits the exercise provides.
>What you need to understand is that nobody's anatomy is ADVANTAGED by elevating the feet off the floor for deadlift
At no point did I claim that was the case, and if you think I did please point out where. I'm not advocating lifting in heels over flats either. All I'm saying is that there is no universally "correct" range of motion for the deadlift, and as far as training goes there are potential benefits to decreasing or increasing the ROM depending on specific goals(you know deficit deadlifts are a thing, right?). It's a movement where, all things being equal, the range of motion will be different between different people.

>>40873756
>Should've at least gotten Do Wins or or Risto.
My Powerlift 3s were 50 bucks, those shoes are 2 to 3 times more expensive than that. I'm not unhappy with them but I'll get new shoes sometime down the line, maybe Romaleos this year.

>>40874006
>You can deadlift for hypertrophy purposes
Pffffff
>or for the carryover strength benefits the exercise provides.
In which case, it's in your interest to maximize the amount of weight you can pull, because more weight = more strength gains.

Frankly, I don't know why you're arguing with me. I said you are disadvantaging yourself by wearing thick shoes because the increased ROM will negatively impact how much weight you can lift. You hemmed and hawed, then admitted that you can pull more weight when barefoot or wearing flat shoes. That means I'm right and you agree, so wtf point are you trying to make by phrasing every post as if you're disagreeing with me? I never claimed ROM is universal, so you're autistically screeching over nothing. I claimed that you should utilise your full natural ROM (which will vary by individual) and that there is no advantage to using an EXAGGERATED ROM. I'm right on both points and everything you've said has either proven me right or failed to address what I actually said. I think you might just be confused.

Watches are one of the few acceptable accessories that guys can wear, so it's beyond just telling time.

Also, taking a quick glance at your wrist is way better than pulling your phone out of your pocket and hitting a button. You can't always do the latter.

Saw what people have written about powerlifts on here and I just ordered powerlifts 2.0 have I fucked up? They are the first weightlifting shoe I've had is it worth cancelling it and buying adipowers or something?

not sure what you mean, that's a pretty standard setup for a rack and platform, and those are the spotter arms, the jcups are on the floor, i use this expensive equipment for weightlifting so the distance from the platform to the stand has to be sufficient, you need enough space to do it in

i just got back from second time squatting in these and it felt awesome I am used to the higher heel already

>>40884347
Why wouldn't you use them for ohp?

Right now I just use vans. Can you guys do all your lifts in squat shoes?

>Can you guys do all your lifts in squat shoes?
you CAN, but it's not necessarily a good idea for deadlifts.
squat shoes are good for squats and bench. I don't know if they have any significant effect on OHP, but WL competitors to push presses and jerks in them, so why not.

might be disadvantageous for rows, depending on your limb/torso length. but who cares about rows desu

>>40885314
he means why do you have the safetys up where the j cups should b, cos he thinks you unrack from em while squating

I lift barefoot faggot

I like to OHP in lifting shoes because I feel it gives a better platform to press from with the hard sole, especially when doing push presses. For OHP it doesn't matter how close your feet are to the floor, not true for deadlifts

I've grown accustomed to going as close to barefoot as possible. I don't even wear socks anymore.

Merrell makes some good running and trail running shoes, but I lift in them too.

I lift in running shoes. Is this bad?

It's bad for squatting .. really bad. Less bad for other standing lifts like DL and OHP but still bad once you get heavier

>maximal shoes
no.

Are there any shoes to do all lifts in. How about vans?

>>40887067
ah yes that figures, i understand now, i use the safeties to do jerks from as its much easier to roll the bar on them onto my shoulders, and jerk dips too you can just stand up and put the weight down with no worries about missing, and i do squat on the platform so i can drop the bar if i need to without having to worry about damaging it and if i just feel like dropping it on my last one
