    I may need to invest in a pair. I wish I could have been turned onto this sooner ,I had no idea. Could you do the same for deadlifts as well?

    you could use the wedged heal type shoes for deadlifts. i'm an oly lifter and do it all the time. just take into consideration the fact that you'll need to change your pull slightly because of the elevated heal.

    i use the lifting shoes primarily because of stability in squat movements. the elevated heal keeps me more stable at the bottom and helps keep the torso in the correct position.

    but hayl yeah, man. buy a pair of shoes. it'll be a great investment for your lifting.
