    Hi Jake, thanks for another great review. Would you prefer the metcon 6 or On cloudswift 3 for indoor sessions, light runs and daily wear?

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great Q - both can work great. Cloud will have a bias towards running whereas Free Metcon will be better for lifting. I'd go with the option that matches your weekly training best from a lifting:running ratio.
      If you're lifting more, go Free Metcon, vice versa!

    @acyutad 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Hi Jake, thanks for the video. Still questioning tho, do you think it's an upgrade going for free metcon 6 from free metcon 5? considering how good the free metcon 5 still is

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Eh - upgrade will depend on what you're after. If you wanted a plusher midsole and better midfoot in the 5 then the 6 is an upgrade. If you LOVE the 5 then it won't be a real upgrade, imo.
      If you're still into the 5, I'd stock up on them and look for deals!

    Awesome vid as usual Jake! Wish the durability was better otherwose I'd give these a chance (currently on a slip-on kick with trainers "Metcon Reacts")
    Have you bought the Reebok Nano Courts yet?
    I want to see if they are similar to the Nano X's (my favs) but lighter.

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you! I'm bummed, too, maybe this is a one-off shoe, though.
      DO NOT get them. I have a review coming on them and I am not a fan - feels like a half baked Nano NGL.

    Hey, thanks for this. I got calluses from my asics shoes. I am leaning towards metcon-6 or cloud X4 for workouts. I lift regularly and do 5k as well. Any recommendations please? Do they go size up? Or true to your size?

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I'd go Free Metcon 6 over the Cloud X4. True to size, I'd go same size in these as you did with your Asics!

    Hi Jake, I am looking into getting the Free Metcon 6 or 5, and I currently have Free Metcon 4s. I like to do general lifting but nothing too heavy, HIIT, and some short runs. One issue I have with the 4 is my toe has started to create a hole in the upper toe box. Do you think the 5 or 6 has better upper toe box durability?

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Both should be solid, but I’d go 6. A bit more reinforcement around the toe box!

    • @thatfitfriend
      @thatfitfriend  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It can be! If you're newer to lifting then they should work, but as you get more serious with weights/running distances you'll likely want to find something a little more specific for comfort and performance reasons!

      Tbh, if they're not that noticeable and only to you - I'd just train in em! They're going to get scuffed up once you're training anyways and it may just be some slight imperfections. I have them here and there on shoes, but since I know I'm just going to beat them up I'll look the other way when they're super minor.
      If it reallllyyyy bothers you, then you could def swap em out for a new pair. One of those random occurrences that happens sometimes, imo
