Also, I have this weird thing about not wearing socks when I lift...it's like superstitious ritual...not sure why I'm telling you this. What's the good word on lifting shoes?

Nate - You have to get some chucks. They make a world of a difference. I was lifting for the longest time on cross trainers/airwalks and finally a powerlifter convinced me to go with some chucks so I got a pair and I haven't looked back. They really help in the squat and being able to push the knees out. Deadlifts they just get you lower to the ground.
