Knowing how to use a lifting belt correctly can be empowering and can improve different muscle groups. Using it makes the lifter more conscious of their back’s position so they’ll know what muscles must be activated to have a good posture. But what lifting belts should you use?

They wanted a shoe that fit and worked like the Converse shoes (i.e. a very simple design) but wanted something that could be used in amphibious operations. These are sometimes called tactical chucks for that reason. Luckily for the rest of us, these shoes can do a lot more than that – and they look good doing it!
