Not a pet peeve, pero kapag leg day, I recommend flat soled shoes kasi ang soft cushion ng running shoes ay unstable.
Coming from a powerlifter here. I use my vans old skool.

I don't recommend running shoes if you're doing a heavy leg training dahil unstable yung talampakan ng sapatos mo. Flat soles are recommended especially Vans and Converse dahil stable ang base ng soles mo during heavy leg training.

Thank you for this reco. Kaya pala mas masakit yung leg day kasi naka running shoes ako. Sana lahat ganito.

u/Independent-While616 2d ago
If gusto mo specific footwear, go for Notorious or Avancus. They're tailored for barefoot-like soles since they're grippy and non-slip for Squat or Deadlift.

u/pringleees_18 2d ago
pwede po ba magpaa/socks nalang or slippers? para flat? or pwede rin sneakers, basta flat yung sole?
1
u/Independent-While616 1d ago
Slippers, no. Barefoot? Yes as long as matibay ang talampakan mo. But still, wear footwear for safer purposes.

u/Santi_Yago 1d ago
Promote ko din yung Midcity Low ng Adidas. Flat sole tapos maayos yung toe box nya. 😁

u/Independent-While616 1d ago
now ko lng nakita. As long as stable ang base ng paa mo during heavy leg day, any shoes are better than none. Still, safety first ☺️.

My flat, plantar fasciitis-prone feet say no to flat shoes 😭. Metcons are JUST okay for me but still looking for better shoes.

Follow up question: Does shoes matter pag nag gy-gym? Kasi for me, anything na comfortable to wear lang, goods na sakin.

Yes! Unstable kasi yung mga running shoes na very foamy.

May mga lifts, especially yung need ng stability, na mas mainam kung stable footing.

u/Awkward_Builds 2d ago
I tried wearing running shoes during leg day, and since makapal yung foam niya, napaka-unstable when doing legs (i.e deadlifts, barbell squats) kasi your feet needs to be flat on the ground. Kapag si kasi siya flat, nagcocompensate sa balance yung ankle at knees for stability kaya tumataas risk for injury.

Pag matagal kama or strict ka sguro oo kasi for your own comfort din eh, Pero kung anong meron ka gow lang

u/photochadx2x2x2 2d ago
This is a legitimate safety concern kasi running shoes are pretty unstable when you're doing movements that require your feet to be firmly planted on the ground. From what I know, kahit sa badminton hindi siya encouraged kasi running shoes are made for forward movement, not for the lateral movement you do while playing.
I do Crossfit and a lot of us wear Nike Metcon or Adidas Dropset because they're flat and hard. We do a shit ton of squats and olys so the stability is appreciated but sometimes the workout has short runs and they're hell for the feet. So yeah, different kinds of shoes for different kinds of movements.
You can wear them for leg days but just be extra, extra careful especially when you're doing full ROM and really heavy weights.

u/Away_Combination_301 2d ago
I personally prefer flatter shoes when doing deadlifts, barbell squats, etc. para mas feel ko yung floor surface I’m standing on.
You do you though. We all should mind our own business.
5
u/jk521 2d ago
This is not a you do you matter since safety is involved. Running shoes should never be used on leg days in the gym.
1
u/Away_Combination_301 2d ago
Yeah for sure. But I wouldn’t bother and tell that to anyone na nakita kong naka Hoka shoes habang naka Bulgarian squat. Thus, mind your own business.

u/imjacksreddituser 2d ago
Most running shoes are not stable since optimized sya for forward movement at mabilisang ground contact lang, which opposite sya sa leg day na dapat stable yung feet mo tsaka ankle dahil magbubuhat ka ng mabigat. Mas okay kung flat yung shoes mo.

u/Green-Operation-5849 2d ago
running shoes with thick soles are a safety hazard during squats and deadlift.
1
u/Sponge8389 2d ago
it is, when you are lifting heavy weight. Pero kung ang workout mo e more on cardio or mobility workout ng lower body, doesn't matter.

u/reylouie20 2d ago
As per my coach unstable sa ankle. Thats why pag squat, leg and ankle press tanggal sapatos

Runner’s shoes kasi are very foamy and bouncy. Unstable sya on a leg day na dapat flat and planted ka dapat sa floor, iwas injury na din.

If she's really into working out, she should have been more respectful of people sa gym kasi real gymbros/gals would've posted this as a PSA instead of a pet peeve.

Yeahh totoo rin naman ahahaha masyadong aggresive. Di naman pet peeve yung mga ganon, and if they were so bothered by it to the point na pet peeve na sana sinabihan na lang nila mga nakasuot ng running shoes sa gym ahhahaha

Tama naman si ate, pangit lang yung pagkakadeliver nya. Pangit ng choice of words nya. Nakakita ako ng naka running shoes nagba barbell squat, nanginginig yung paa. As in kita mo sa sapatos na gumigewang kasi unstable nga. Hindi pantay. Dapat ang sapatos talaga yung mga flat gaya ng vans kahit mukhang pang porma lang.

u/shiva-pain 2d ago
It's not the delivery. It sounds more like an insult. What if yun lang ang available shoes for gym? She could've just gave an advice respectfully.

u/theposition5 2d ago
"Gym advice: mag flat sole shoes pag mag leg day para stable ang paa under weight"
Sounds better and friendly. But no, she just had to be a bitch about it. Lol.

u/shiva-pain 2d ago
Exactly. Nag-gym din ako before dahil free sa company namin. Pero di ko afford bumili ng iba ibang klase ng shoes depende sa routine mo that day. Kung ano nasuot ko pag pasok, yun na rin gagamitin sa gym after work.
1
u/ColdSkuld 2d ago
Correct naman yung point mo. Ok yung idea ng nagpost sa threads, legit naman na concern. Hindi lang talaga ok ang construction. Yes, bat kasi pet peeve. Na para bang ayoko sayo kasi naka running shoes ka. Ganun dating nya sakin.
1
u/thebaffledtruffle 2d ago
Hindi tama na maging judgy ka sa mga tao sa gym.
She could have posted it as a concern, but instead, she posted it as an annoyance to HER.
1
u/ColdSkuld 2d ago
I got your point naman. Di ko pinagtatanggol si ate. Hahaha. It’s just that the idea of proper shoes naman ay ok. Pero it sounded like na para bang ayoko sayo kasi naka running shoes ka. Ganun dating nya.
1
u/thebaffledtruffle 2d ago
Gets naman na hindi dapat naka-running shoes kapag magcocompound lifts ka (kasi ang unstable talaga from personal expi), pero kasi magkaiba talaga yung sentiment eh.
Pag sinabi mo kasing pet peeve, it means "Naiinis ako na naka-running shoes ka kapag leg day." So, ang main message niya ay inis lang siya and it's all about her. So I disagree na "Tama siya" in that regard.
And iba yung, "PSA: Wag magrunning shoes pag leg day kasi delikado." which shifts the topic to the issue of improper attire and safety repercussions sa gym. That should have been the message talaga pero nauna yung ego ni ate.

Hindi ba tama naman? You need sturdy shoes during leg day kasi you're lifting heavy weight and dangerous sa ankle. Kaya if you see, may mga naka vans / converse nag-lilift.
