Squat and Deadlift Gear
These are a couple of the benefits of deadlift socks over deadlift pants:
- You can see the middle of your foot for the deadlift setup.
- Deadlift socks are allowed in USA powerlifting competitions while deadlift pants are not.
My favorite socks for deadlifting at this point are MOXY deadlift socks. They last long, are comfortable, have additional shin padding and go over the knee.
Rocktape Rock Guard Deadlift Shin Protectors – sometimes you need more than deadlift socks and /or deadlift pants to protect your shins.
Dead Wedge – helps to raise a loaded barbell for loading/unloading plates. Small enough for your gym bag. Read my dead wedge review here.
Power Rack – Squats are one of the most powerful exercises to change your body from fat to fit. If you are going to squat, you must use a power rack. Especially if you are lifting alone, and even if you have a spotter. Safety first, because if you get hurt, there goes your body transformation. To squat safely, you need to use a power rack at the gym or your own Power Rack in your basement or garage like this one which has many excellent reviews.
