    Hey guys,

    I have a concrete yard to the front of the house, fully private and I wanted to put some sort of surface in a section of it for lifting and dropping weights. (Oly bar)

    I wanted rubber - which would work outdoors.

    Any suggestions on what to get or where to buy?

    If you could get thick cow mats they'd be good.

    Our lifting platforms are 50mm of dense rubber. I've done a version with extra 65mm playground soft rubber under the drop zones.
    Obviously overkill in a homegym, but might be worth looking out for soft-fall/playground rubber.

    But all the above will be for nothing without bumpers imo
