Title: training shoes/sneakers
Post by: Deadpool on December 30, 2006, 08:32:07 AM
all I need right now is a cheap pair of running sneakers since I only do cardio, but I was wondering if anyone brought two pairs one for cardio one for lifting, to thegym

Last couple of years I've constantly had bad shins and feet from running, and this was despite wearing the most expensive trainers that the half-wits in JJB recommended!

In the summer I went to a specialist running shop where they measured my feet correctly and watched me run on a treadmill. They then sold me a pair of New Balance for £70, which are the most comfortable running shoes I've ever worn. I can now do long runs, sprints and hill work without even a slight twinge in the old feet.
