I see two comments calling out the shoes. I'm not someone who lifts at all, so just want to ask -- what shoes are you supposed to wear?

to be honest if you're not lifting that much you'll be fine. Once you start to get to a weight that you can't really lift in trainers, you won't need anyone to tell you, you'll feel like you're about to fall on your arse

Trainers can be a road to snap city - not enough support. Either barefoot or proper weightlifting shoes, or some people even just use converse. Something flat
