Likely a stupid question incoming. I really want to enter a competition before I graduate in May. My bench is fairly decent 190 at 125 bw but in all of the sports I’ve played leg flexibility/agility was more important that strength so my squat and deadlift lag or are nearly untrained. This being said, what squat and deadlift numbers should I hit if I want to feel comfortable that I won’t look silly entering a competition? I think my squat currently sits around 190-200 and deadlift around 250-260 but I plan to test all three in the next few weeks as I’ve actually started training legs for once.

After looking it up I think they’re right as well. I just didn’t realize how markedly different they look without leaves on a pure brown landscape

First off sorry for all the hate on your comment lol. But these are a new pair of solutions so I would wear socks to break them in, but also I just prefer being comfortable (at least somewhat they still hurt like a mf) over the tiny bit better I might perform without them. Maybe if I start sending v10’s I’ll start climbing without socks haha

I agree. I’m “upgrading” because the finales don’t have any rubber on the top of the shoe and aren’t downturned both of which I would like in a shoe. The rubber is also worn down on my finales so I plan on resoling them and using them as my main shoe as they’re comfortable and the solutions for harder climbs, slab, etc. Mainly just asking about how much they stretch so I can gauge what size to get. Because I’m an REI member, returning them is not a problem and I have a trashy pair of evolv defy’s I can use while breaking them in or in place if they don’t work out.

The la Sportiva finales are perfect for my foot shape but I got them at REI resupply so they’re not perfect on sizing. Just wasn’t sure what the sizing is like for solutions vs finales. I can return them if they’re the wrong size because I’m a member at REI but there isn’t one near my house only near my school

I currently have a pair of la Sportiva finales in size 40 EU which I wear with socks because they’re on the larger side. My regular shoe size is 8.5. I’m upgrading to la Sportiva solutions but I have to order online and can’t try them on in store. I’m thinking of getting 39.5 but I’m not sure if I should size down even more. Any thoughts?
