Lol I've had them for i think 2 years and don't know what to do with them. they're small on me too. a 9.5 would be perfect for my feet, even a 10.0 is fine.

Are olympic lifting shoes supposed to fit VERY snug?

What are your recommended weightlifting shoes? Is http://wlshoes.com/ a good review site for weightlifting shoes?

rogue do-win have done me right so far and they cost less than $100 when i bought 'em. that website looks solid, actually, thanks for the link. might try for those wei-ruis when the do-wins die.

kingfish can address higher-end shoes if he feels like it.

I'll sell you my 2011 do-wins for $85. Only wore them once. They are literally brand new still. You can even smell it.

Size 9.0

Look up the causes of shin splints. See if you have any muscle imbalances, then correct lagging body parts. Perhaps it's caused by certain muscles being tight? Stretch those ones. Or maybe it's caused by a few overractive muscles? Foam roll them.

Yep. Even simpler:

Did you hit all five reps?

IF YES: Increase weight by 5lbs next workout. Attempt 5 reps.
IF NO: Do not increase weight by 5lbs next workout. Attempt 5 reps.

General rule of thumb:

If your workout prescribes 5 reps, and you can only hit 4, do the same weight for the next workouts until you can manage 5 reps. Then increase the weight for the subsequent workout and repeat the process.

Don't wear them in your team games, that's retarded! Where them only when you practice... not when the game matters.

I got a pair of Rogue Do-Wins (half a size too small) and holy shit it felt amazing to squat with them.

You can go deeper with better form. And you are so much more stable.

I only used them once though, because they're too small on me. Too lazy to get another pair that fit me.

great progress dreyth
what was the timeframe betwen the 203 pic and 197 pic?

I'll check my journal and answer back.

edit:

Feb 25th - 203lbs
Mar 16th - 197lbs

Hmm... I lost weight pretty quickly there actually... part of it was water weight though. I remember I got inconsistent with my creatine, and this was when I was a bit depleted of creatine.

Stop assuming that because it works for you everyone else has to train that way to be successful.

Oh? I assumed that?

How do the paused half squat feel on your knees? I would think that would hurt a bit.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't count the warm up and stretching afterwards as my workout. I think if the actual lifting portion takes about 1hr 15min... that's okay. It could just be that you like to take very long rest times like I used to (6-8min rests between sets of squats). In fact, I think Kingfish used to take (maybe still does?) about 12-15min rest between sets of squats
