No Shoes, No Problem

Today's workout consisted of squats and lunges.  First was strength work, 5 sets of front squats, 3 reps.  I got 215 lbs for my last set.  I'll take that since the last time I did it in Oct, I got to 185 lbs.  Then it was on to the actual workout, which today, was squats and lunges.  1000 m row, 100 m walking lunges, and 100 air squats.  Not too bad on paper, but sucked.  About 40 reps into my squats, I got a pain in my arch of my left foot.  So should I quit, nope, just take my shoes off.  I kicked my shoes off and finished the squats.  19 min 44 sec, done.

Now, in a globo gym, taking your shoes off mid workout would get you some strange looks.  People don't even look twice if you do that during a wod.  Whatever it takes to finish.  So no shoes, no problem, just as long as you finish the workout however you need to.
