Hey Mehdi i've noticed you're wearing nike shoes in the videos in previous article 7 Dynamic Stretches for Hip Mobility. what model of nike shoes are those? are they also good for deadlifts and squats? Thanks in advance!

nike free trainers 7.0 are VERY good shoes for weight training (specifally squat,deadlift,clean) and for sprints. very light shoe. blah.

idk what kind mehdi has.lol but that right thurr is a damnn good shoe.

nike tennis court (old model). I like shoes with sort of a flat sole. (I wear adidas all stars in other vids)
The nike's are not that great for working out. Adidas all stars are better (you'll find power lifters use them on squats here & there). But I prefer my converse, the sole bents more easily than on all stars (it's a very hard sole).

Adidas All Stars look funky out of the gym too!

Viper, I've been looking for a shoe that might be good for crossfit trainging. The nike free seem to be great but some people complain that they are too soft for lifting. Can you say more about this. How do they compare to adidas for lifting?

I generallt lift in my Puma flats...there is no paadding at all and are alao good for my pose running...I also have converse but I feel a bit odd in running in them..
Addidas all star seems to have quite a thick sole..compared to converse I guess..

I like the converse running isn't bad in them they are more comfortable then the sambas I used to have. Although I do look strang because of how skinny and short I am to have size 11's on because they look like clown shoes.

I was just looking at the Asics online - anbody have any comments on them - or maybe Puma's ??

@ Young Athelete - Do they look anything like this ??
These actually look like they have a pretty decent solid sole too

Just got a great image in my mind of YA wearing those - they'd go with white briefs a treat !!

LOL - I think he might be the kind of guy to actually put up a pic like that

Nah they are the black converse but my feet are just way to big for my body right now I'm still going to grow like 5 more inches though
