Inspired by this thread.
I know most of us are having to lift at home now. Personally, I've had to completely drop barbell lifts, sticking to kettlebells and calisthenics in my apartment. In 1BC (Before Covid), what shoes or other equiptment did you take to the gym?
Me?... I did my lifting in deadlift socks, then put my running shoes back on and hit the treadmill. I used to wear chucks, but one day realised I had forgot them when I opened my gym bag in the locker room, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna squat in running shoes. That is how I found out I prefer socks to chucks.
I don't use a lifting belt or straps either, just liquid chalk and a knee sleeve for my bum left knee.
