shoes
What shoes are some of you wearing when you work out? I need a new pair of shoes and I'd like to get some that are good for lifting and that I can wear to school and stuff.

I wear new balance 574. They aint the greatest lookin shoes, but the thing is, you really want a shoe that has little support. I tried doing squats in air jordan XI's/11s i just got from the Defining Moments Package, and damndest if i could do anything. Ironically, the less support, the better. I got the black 574's. But thats just my personal opinion. Or mabye nike free 5.0 trainer. I find that becuase of the lack of cushioning, the muscles are worked more evenly and better.

If you're doing squats and/or deadlifts you should wear a shoe with a hard sole that doesn't compress. In other words, no running shoes or Nike Shox stuff. Other exercises, doesn't make any difference.

I wear Asics for most days, but for squats I have a pair of DC's.

I have a pair of Asics cross country running shoes that I lift in. There's almost not padding in them (but ironically, they're very comfortable). They look pretty sweet too.
