I plan a full Review.

But can already give you my first Impressions, answer some initial questions and wanna make sure i don't forget an aspect in the Review.

First Impression:

TLDR: Definitely an improvement over the X1.

Sole is night and day. Has way more traction. X1 Sole felt like a very stiff brick. X2 Sole is way more flexible and softer. It embodies the spirit of a Barefoot shoe soo much more than the X1's Sole.

Cushioning felt similar.
Toeboex was not improved. Still a typical Xero Toebox. In comparison to other Voleyball shoes it's significantly roomier, but compare to Altra's it's noticeably smaller.

You can also reeeeally feel the Mid foot tensioning system hug your sides as you lace them.

Overall the shoes feels more comfortable. Have not noticed anything majorly wrong in this first session, but have to put more time into the comparison

Hab das hier letztens zufällig gelesen nachdem ich zum ersten Mal Just Egg in nem Rewe gefunden habe.

Geschmacklich muss man glaub ich n bisschen nachhelfen, schmeckte etwas fad. Kann aber auch an meinem Weißbrot toast gelegen haben oder an zu viel Milch.

Daher mein Tipp für euch es in kleinen Portionen, pro Scheibe, mit verschiedenen Mischverhältniss und Gewürzen zu testen beim ersten Mal.

Aber von der Knusprigkeit und der Bräunung funktioniert es bombe.

Rührei geht auch super damit, deutlich besser als diese Rührei Ersatz pulver.

I have been looking into getting as close to the actual barefoot feeling as possible. Especially when going for walks over trails and fields. I want to feel gravel, little bumps and rocks etc. I like that sensory experience.

Even my thinnest Barefoot shoe (Xero Zelen. 5mm stack height without insole) has not gotten me there.

The next thing most people recommend to get the barefoot feeling are sandals.

So i got the Xero genesis. Which yes, gives you the airy feeling of Barefoot, but i still felt a major disconnect to the ground.

So i got the Skinners sockshoes and they hit exactly what i was looking for. Especially when taking the insole out. They feel sooo freeing. The biggest factor is that the sole is not a sheet of classic material but can actually stretch and deform. Image 2. And of course is ultra thin. 

I had looked at other sock shoes like the Leguano Score, but I deliberately did not want one with a typical rubber sole, however thin it would be as i doubted it would be able to emulate that deformity and stretch. By pure chance i met someone wearing them a couple of days ago and can confirm that they still feel way stiffer than the skinners.

And i wanted a sock shoe over being actually barefoot to protect against sharp dried out grass, thistles and glass. As I had pulled all of these out of my feet last summer. And be protected all around cus stinging nettles suck.

I also hated debris getting stuck between foot and sandals. That’s a sensory nightmare.

So for all these reasons i now much prefer the protection of the sock liner on top of the foot and the much, much more deformable sole of the skinners over the open air of the genesis.

Even managed to dress them up a bit and if you wear them with confidence they’re not as weird looking as i suspected. Image 4&5.

They're still not perfect. Your toes can't splay quite the same and of course you're still wearing something. But they have gotten me so much closer than anything i've tried so far. And i'm looking forward to my evening walks even more now :)

I have not tested Vibrams five finger, which are the other recommendation you hear when people recommend the most barefoot experience possible.

Wiki also just had it's first 1.1 Version update. With a bunch of new features and functions.

In the last month of a cut right now and my eyes have been opened to high volume and satiety eating based on just Broccoli, Tofu and Potatoes.

I could literally meet my macro goals exactly by balancing just these three and throwing in some sauces.

Have semi struggled to stay on calorie target the past 2 months but since switching to this as my main source of food for >80-90% of the day, it has been ridiculously easy.

I supplement, B12, Vitamin D, Iron, Omega 3, selen, use iodized salt regardless.

And by throwing in some variety in foods for the remaining 10-20% or even just throwing on some seeds and nuts this diet should easily cover all the important vitamins.

And with the variety of ways you can prepare tofu and what the 10-20% of variety food offers i can easily see not getting tired of this for the rest of the month.

Semi inspired by this video (includes omni diet).

Here is how i prepared the Tofu in this pic. (post is in german. Hoping that you'll get the reddit auto translate. It comes down to boiling it in spiced water, so essentially soup for 1h, before frying it in the oven with starch)
