Let's go!

Now, let's start the show.

Hey, what's up, podcast listeners?

Thank you so much for checking out today's show.

This is episode 117 of the Squat University podcast.

The goal with each and every one of these shows is to bring you as much value-pat content to help you move better in the gym and in life,

and eventually your performance, check out this shoe. I've been lifting in them with any of my

non-Olympic lifts like my squats and deadlifts for over a year now and I absolutely love them.

So if you go on barefoot athletics.com, and that's B-E-A-R, like the animal, and use the code squat you, you can get 10% off your order. And that's for everything on their website, including the correct toe toe spacers that I

also wear every day and you can learn more about in my prior podcast why your shoes suck with

Dr. Ray McClanahan.

Now, before we get started, I want to also let you guys know that I recently came out with my
