Zakhar/Vasya/Boris are the only ones worth befriending.

okay but what does that mean for the average /fit/izen? are my vans eras preventing me from lifting better? is the upgrade worth it or should i just barefoot it?

I got mine for $45 on amazon. Theyre literally cheaper than vans and you dont fuck up your everyday shoes.

Vasya all day. Or Zakhar. Just get any flat, thin soled shoes for lifting. It really isn't a big deal my amigo.

> no evgeny bros

Just for squatting? Mostly no.

If you really enjoy lifting and maybe do a bit of oly movements as well you could probably get one if you'd like. Also , in that case I'd recommend the powerperfect instead.
