    Do Jillian Michaels in shoes. I feel like I personally get a better workout in shoes.

    The ones I've seen are like toeless socks with grippy things in the bottom. I never had too much trouble before, but I got a new mat and it seems like I'm sliding all the time now. Can't tell if they'd stay in place or be even worse.

    For P90 or Insanity, usually barefoot but it depends the floor and how good that traction is. I prefer barefoot though. Unless I'm running outside, then I like shoes. :)

    For my at home videos, barefoot. If I do the treadmill, I put on socks and shoes. If I do my videos at my mom's apt, then I wear sock and shoes, go figure! If I do my rebounder, I can go barefoot or with shoes. I tend to get sore feet when doing rebounder barefoot, but it helps strengthen the feet.

    Ha! I'm the boring one then! I do cardio and even weight lifting in shoes.
    My big toes are sore, shoes protect my toes and reduce shock.

    Shoes. A pair that's just for inside.... I actually need a new pair, just noticed the wear on them.
    Current program is Core De Force
    Yoga and a few other things I may go barefoot

    Lifting for me. Initial sets are done barefoot, but the reps that count are done in Chucks (flamed high-top Chucks...)

    Barefoot, I though I would be the only one! That maybe I was setting myself up for an injury but it just feels better.

    Depends, if there is a lot of jumping I will put on shoes, otherwise just socks.

    But my floors are hard in the basement so jumping hurts on it!

    I use the 'grippy socks' to walk around the house... wood floors + socks = disaster! I use them for yoga too (on carpet) and they do a great job. Would suggest that if you're in between sizes you get the smaller pair.

    I've got a few pairs of the kids Gaiam ones they sell at target - they look like regular socks with the sticky pattern on the bottom - I don't really care for the 'toed' socks.

    ETA: I lift in the garage barefoot and run outside / PT inside in shoes.

    I started exercising barefoot about four years ago. I haven't worn shoes since then. Hillbilly fitness rocks!

    Barefoot, unless I'm running outside :) Really though, if I could find an excuse to always be barefoot, I'd be a happy camper.

    Yoga or cardio DVDs in Vibram 5 finger shoes, but lifting in my retired running shoes.

    Barefoot. I don't like shoes on in the house and socks are for when I'm being cozy.
