SUMMARY
To improve the grip of hardened rubber soles on gym shoes, soaking them in specific solutions is not recommended. Instead, users should consider the type of surface they are training on; for hardwood floors, new shoes with optimal traction are essential, while older shoes may be preferable for artificial turf to prevent excessive stress on joints. The discussion emphasizes the importance of maintaining appropriate shoe conditions for different environments to ensure safety and performance.
