adidas Powerlift 4 vs Reebok Legacylifter - Where are the differences?

Let us take a closer look at the differences between the two weightlifting shoes adidas Powerlift 4 and Reebok Legacylifter.

Heel Higth

The heel height (blast) is the core element of every weightlifter shoe. Most models have a heel height of about 0.7". This corresponds to a blast of 17 millimeters. With 15,0 mm excitation is the adidas Powerlift 4 flatter than the Reebok Legacylifter with 15,5 mm.

The right heel height depends a little bit on you personally. With long legs you should rather choose a higher heel height. In this comparison the Reebok Legacylifter would be the better model.

The way you perform your squat also plays a role in the decision. If you have a tight stance as well as the high bar squat, a larger blast is recommended. So again the Legacylifter is the variant with the higher heel for you. With a wide stand or the low-bar squat, a flatter blast is more suitable. With the comparison of the adidas Powerlift 4 and the Reebok Legacylifter} that would be the Powerlift 4.
