If you're lifting your heels to make up for lack of ankle mobility then you're trying to build strength on top of dysfunction. Doesn't work, & you'll further cement the bad movement pattern. Even if we are talking about elite lifters, you should still be trying to improve that mobility outside of competition.
Lifting in Chuck Taylors Quality lifting shoes like Nike Romoloes have no gel/cushion and are solid flat surface simply on an incline to allow for proper trunk positioning. Try doing a proper chest up squat and keep your heels on the ground. 99.9% of people can't come close. You lift through your heels and majority of peoe do t have the flexibility to lift through the heels and maintain proper chest/back position
