Just wondering.... how many guys wear boots versus tennis shoes to work out in at the gym. I like to wear combat boots, but rarely see anyone else wearing them. What type of tennis shoe or boots do you wear??     | ||

Get a good shoe with good lateral support. (Basketball shoe for example) or boots such as skechers would do fine. I use nike crosstrainers. Just don't workout in running shoes, big mistake! | ||

I wear work boots. I like the flat bottom and slight heal for squatting. It also protects my arch during calf raises. I was thinking of trying the combat boot thing. Can I get them cheap from Sunnys? | ||

skate board sneakers with seme-high tops have the best ankle support (for a sneaker) and are the best multi-purpose shoe available. ------------------ | ||

I wear wrestling shoes. I especially love the way they feel when I am squatting. ------------------ Because I want to . . . Because I have to . . . Because I need to . . . Because I can! | ||

what are these "shoes" you speak of? I'll have to look into getting a pair. as for the workboots in the gym, I think it looks kinda redneck. but hey, if you are a construction worker and it is too hard to change into something else, I say go for it. also, high tops don't really offer any greater ankle support, it is just a feedback loop to your brain that makes it more aware of ankle rotation and compensates for it with muscle stimuli to support it. ------------------ | ||

Boots on leg day. Cross-trainers the rest of the time. | ||
