    Converse Chuck Taylor. Easy to get around the World. Many people recommend them. Affordable.

    Sabo appear to be a popular choice. I'm buying a pair soon.

    Many people recommend Homeopathy, and not going outside when it is cold, and eating only plants, and smoking organic tobacco, and celibacy.

    Chucks suck if you have wide feet.

    Believe it or not, I was actually thinking about it if "many people..." will get me in trouble. I knew it you should not listen to "many people".

    Wearing Chuck Taylors is a direct cause of celibacy.

    Jack,
    My questions weren't rhetorical. Don't post another form check until you've answered them please. I'm asking because I want to see if you understand what I'm talking about or if there's a communication breakdown.

    Get something with a non-compressible sole. Deadlift slippers are cheap on amazon.

    I did watch the video. I hear the plates click as I start the pull. I'm pretty sure that what I failed to do was only tighten the back until I hear this click. Instead, I tightened the back to some extent and then used my legs to produce the click. I made sure my warmups floated off of the floor, but I did it in the way written in the sentence above, so I did it incorrectly. I will post my set tonight.

    Sorry, I couldn't post until this morning.
    This is 390x5x1. On the 5th rep, my back rounded just a tiny bit. Is this something to worry about?
