re: Lifting Shoes

I notice that when I’m pushing up on my squats, the weight ends up on the front of my feet.

This is very common. For the most part you are relying on your quads to finish your lift. Work on glute and hamstring recruitment.

When it comes to shoes, most running/athletic shoes have a very high heel, hence why we have a dorsiflexion epidemic in this country, which can result in you driving your knees forward which puts weight on the balls of your feet. Wearing flat soled shoes will help you keep most of that weight on your heels.
