Trainers

Hi,

I'm a 33 year old gym bunny looking for some new smart, cool trainers. I'm do a lot of classes like body pump, etc and a lot of weights. Suggestions with pictures please.

If you're doing pump and weights, you'll probably want a relatively solid/thin sole - it's not good to lift heavy on squishy or cushioned trainers due to the relative lack of stability.

I have the New Balance Minimus 20v5 and love them!

Sorry, I totally read that as trainers the person/occupation, not the type of shoe.


--Edited--
Anything marketed to crossfit will probably work for you. Lots of lateral stability, minimal cushion.

Go barefoot or go vibram

Nope. Not PTs. Just footwear

I need sneakers with good arch support. Asics kayanos are my favorite.
