Welcome back to the "Architect of Resilience Podcast!" In today's episode, we're diving into a thought-provoking conversation between our host, Chris Duffin, and special guest, Steven Sashen. Together, they tackle the ongoing debate surrounding specialized footwear in strength sports, fitness, and overall musculoskeletal health.

We'll explore the evolution of footwear in disciplines like powerlifting and Olympic lifting, discussing the shift from traditional weightlifting shoes to minimalist options and even going barefoot. Our speakers will examine how these choices impact performance, agility, flexibility, and injury risk, emphasizing the importance of context and individuality in selecting the right gear.

Chris and Steven will also break down the biomechanics behind weightlifting shoes, the psychological effects of specialized footwear, and the balance between safety and optimal muscle engagement. They'll share personal anecdotes and reference upcoming research on minimalist footwear, foot strength, and its effects on balance and proprioception.
