Nobody has time to do anything, you have to make time for it.
You have to put effort to see the results you dream about!

You lost one time?

What will you lose if you keep going?where do you think 'not quitting' will take you to?

The END GAME bro, the Big Dream that you never thought possible in the beginning.

Like most things in fitness, the answer depends on your personal choice, your health and what you want to accomplish.

If you are someone who likes being barefoot, feeling the ground underneath you and not be restricted by shoes, you probably already know what you are going to do. ;)

But, be cautious about doing any jumping or running movements and the environment though. If there are a lot of weights lying around and you are doing a lot of drills that require you to move your feet really fast on a rough surface, you may be better served doing them with shoes.

While on the other hand, if you are doing a lot of strength exercises and you want to work on improving your mobility, barefoot or minimal footwear would be the best option.

Because, most shoes aren't really designed for providing a lot of ankle mobility and may even restrict your mobility at times.

Most shoes have a higher heel, which raises your heel higher (I know right? Genius me!), limiting the amount of dorsiflexion or the amount your ankle can bend.

There's nothing inherently wrong with shoes, but if you want to work on your mobility and get the full ROM and associated benefits, try working out barefoot. Especially on exercises like squats and deadlifts.

Coming to beeryani, we have a lot of stuff lying around on some of our conditioning days and in my personal experience I've noticed that the artificial grass mat and the usual gym rubber flooring is going to be harsh on your toes if you are doing exercises like sled push and mountain climbers.

So, we recommend our folks to wear some amount of protection for the feet on conditioning days and try doing the strength days barefoot. :)

PS: Definitely wear shoes if you are diabetic or have any other health conditions that could put you in harms way.

The following discussion was with a client of ours who recently moved to the US.

She was basically asking me which one to opt for as long as she's there.

I honestly think that people would benefit a lot more by picking things they enjoy rather than doing things just because they're the most effective ones.

Heck, one of the main reasons I started is because nobody around seemed to be talking about how amazing strength training is, for enjoyability and results.

And the majority of the folks I spoke to who say have been strength training, didn't really do strength training. They were just made to do exercises for countless reps while holding weights.

Strength training is so much more than that. It's so addictive man. You should see the faces of the folks who are able to deadlift their bodyweight for the first time.

You see that glow in their faces, that look where they can't believe they actually did it and a whole new world opens in front of them.

If you want to lose weight and are unsure about what to start with, don't rule out strength training till you are able to deadlift your bodyweight.

I honestly believe that's going to flip a switch and change your life for the better.

If you do try it and realize that it's not for you, give something else a shot and see if you enjoy doing that.

It may just be me, but I want you to experience the high you get when you're strength training properly.

I haven't figured it out completely, but there's something about strength training that gets people hooked. I've never met anyone who deadlifted their bodyweight or did their first chinup and not love that feeling.

If you need help getting started on your strength training journey, please feel free to contact us to see how we can help.

If you need a playlist of YouTube videos that teach you how to do the deadlift properly on your own, please DM us and we'll share the links with you.

Yoga, Pilates, dance forms and other exercise methodologies are all great and have a lot of folks teaching them too, but I sincerely, genuinely hope you give strength training a shot too.
If I could convince at least one of you to give it a shot, I'll be a happy man :)
