Years ago, the idea that you could run barefoot, instead of in running shoes, shook the running community. (The ultimate result: The market exploded with expensive shoes meant to mimic barefoot running, met by a backlash of expensive shoes with as much cushioning and structure as possible.) A similar debate is now simmering in the strength training community with arguments that barefoot lifting is natural and good and better for us, and on the other hand, that recklessly barefoot lifters are courting injury and disease. Neither is entirely true, of course, so let’s dig into the pros and cons.
