And are you pulling in those sneakers?

Use wrestling shoes or something flat like Vans or Converse All-Stars
I pulled with gloves on that day bc i didnt want to tear a callous in my hand and i think that hurt my grip. There is chalk available it just doesnt work with gloves for me probably why i dropped the weight.

I pull in those shoes yes. Would it be better to deadlift and squat barefoot you think?
