Abstract
The strength and conditioning and rehabilitation sectors use the deadlift as an integral part of their programming (Escamilla et al., 2000). Furthermore, what shoes to wear while deadlifting is a regular topic of weightlifting equipment forums. Strength and conditioning researchers and a range of industry practitioners suggest that weightlifting shoes, non-compressive soled shoes such as ConverseTM ‘Chuck Taylors’ or unshod (socks only or barefoot) conditions are essential in providing a stable platform and effective force transfer from the ground to the bar (Cressey, 2008). In contrast it is claimed that soft soled shoes produce instability and indirect ground reaction force (GRF) transmission, thus compromising lifting performance.
