P.S. Your english is really good, I would have never known English wasn’t your first language!

I’m convinced, I’ll purchase VFF soon enough! The VFF cost around US$125 here.

Plus thanks for the link-love, I’ll reciprocate that gesture on my blog soon enough.

I do hope my English here isn’t that bad, it’s not my first language.

Thank you for your comment!!
About the Five Fingered Shoes…yes you can use them for all of the above! Squatting & Deadlifting in them are great because they are flat and low to the ground. I use them for my warm-up drills, they help stabilize the foot so you land properly. If you do a lot of grass or off-track running, perfect for levels that aren’t flat like a track (how people mostly roll their ankle). To be honest, I can’t think of a time NOT to use the shoes. I’m more susceptible to minor shin pain, so I used my running shoes on the track sometime. But my brother isn’t and the shoes literally never come off of his feet (other than for spikes), he just walks around in them as a normal shoe, then trains in them.

So, it can be different for everyone, but there are also many different styles that tailor to everyones needs. Hope I helped some?
(great blog by the way…I added yours to our “killer blogs” on the sidebar)

Insightful article, I’ve been reading this site for some time now as silent reader.

But I want to ask, about Five Fingered Shoes, before investing in one.

You used it for warmup, trainings and such? Such as tempo, weight room, practicing drills, hurdles, plyo, etc? Any issues there using Five Fingered Shoes.

In what scope of your training that do you NOT use Five Fingered Shoes, apart from doing speed-work (spikes).

Thanks
