Does anybody know where I can buy the rubber mats for olympic lifting, not looking for platforms but just 2 pieces of plastic that I can use when i drop the weights so it doesnt make a big dent on the concrete.

toy r us

really? thanks kevin will take a look into it.

Just use plywood.

I'm looking for something extremely portable and lightweight...so plywood im not sure will do it unless somebody can correct me cause im not too familiar myself.

if you're talking about cheap rubber mats, i wouldn't recommend it...
it's a real bitch to load additional weight when the bar is on the mat.

you'll end up rolling the bar off the mat, then rolling it up again... waste of time and energy.

i have no idea how to use plywood, but i'll explore that one first.

I don't think he means the compressible yoga mats, but rather the harder playground type? Those wouldn't be hard to load on.
