Building an Olympic Platform

Since we added new bumper plates to the Cave, my main squeeze told me that we made too much racket this am with our power deadlifts. You explode only through the first part of the motion and then drop the bar.

My goal tonight was to build a platform that will deaden the noise and provide a safe place to work the olympic lifts.

I got all the wood at Lowe's, thank you pay me later. 2 sub flooring panels and 4 2x4's that are 8 feet in length. I built a rim on the bottom of the platform and left the center hollow and plan on putting rubber on the top sides of the platform.


and here is today's workout
