What are your thoughts on barefoot shoes for lifting/ in general?

Wearable braces/supports for weight lifting

Hi! Can you cover braces/supports - back braces and posture correctors? What is the purpose of a back brace? When would you need to be using one? Has anyone ever used a posture corrector for lifting to prevent shoulder pain? What about using these braces during recovery? Any other bracing that could be helpful to prevent injury? Thanks!

Consistency vs. Flexibility in Workout Scheduling

I recently started your 3-4 day push/pull/leg program, and I love it! My schedule can be a bit unpredictable, so ideally, I’d work out Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. But last week, I ended up working out Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (Legs/Core). Is it important to stick to the same days each week, or is it more important to just get 3-4 days in, even if they’re back-to-back?
