i recently read that training bare foot while working out calves is a good thing, why is this? and in my gym it is not allowed to train bare foot for some god forsaken reason, so what should i do? i usually train in running shoes, is there a special shoe or a shoe that would do better than what im using right now?

I ALWAYS train my calves barefoot. It gets me a lotta weird looks, but I have trouble workin calves with shoes on. Try it, and see if ya get in trouble. Remember, youre a customer, they dont want to lose your business. Just dont draw attention.WATTS said:

but if not i found a pair of my old wrestling shoes so they will probably work. they are snug. but it seems as though my heel slips up a little when i go on my toes, but we'll see how it goes. ill try them and see if i feel as though i feel my calves better or not.Dante said:
thank you guys for your posts....do you guys know why some say it is better to train bare foot, just out of curiosity? lol
Why? Because a shoe is not natural, just like wearing a glove. I dont see how people wear gloves and lift, until they get used to it.
That said, I have never lifted barefoot, I work with what shoes I have. Some are better than others.

Go into china town or an store that sells asian goods and get some of those black kung fu shoes. They are usually only about 5 dollrs (at most) and are close to barefoot as well. If you are close to San Fransico they are everywhere.
