This Is Exactly When You Should Replace Your Weightlifting Shoes to Prevent Injuries, According to a Podiatrist
There are few things as exciting as getting a new pair of shoes to test out at the gym. But over time, your shiny new toys become just another used pair, taking the brunt of heavy lifts and exciting PRs. Still, you may not even realize it until your once-reliable weightlifting shoes are well past their expiration date. Podiatrists say it’s worth being more diligent about replacing your shoes because once the support and cushioning break down, it can increase your risk of foot pain or injury over time.
