What is the best flooring for a home gym?
Hi Ladies,
I'm building a new house and of course it will have a home gym. I'm looking at this flooring which is very low-priced but looks good. http://www.amazon.com/We-Sell-Mats-A.../dp/B001EJI6CK I'm going to order a square of it to get an idea. Do you have any flooring recs? TIA,

Chris, I would love to see pictures of your workout room or just hear what you have planned. Please! We're finishing a small room right now so I'd love more ideas. I've been trying to find pictures online, too, so if you've found any inspirational pictures, I'd love to see them.
I'm ordering my flooring tomorrow and I'm also ordering from www.rubberflooringinc.com. I think I'm getting the 1/2" plyorobic rolls. The sales person I talked to last week said my couple pieces of equipment wouldn't damage it and I like that it's more shock absorbent. Debbie |

This is a very different suggestion, but I have to say that I'm really happy with my Dollamur flexi-roll mat. I initially purchased it to practice brazilian jiu-jitsu at home, but after an injury ended my bjj practice, I left it rolled up gathering dust for years. However, I just unrolled it and started using it for my Deltafit workouts, and it is terrific! When I finish Deltafit I'm moving to Rushfit, and I'm sure it will be awesome for those workouts also.
I would not recommend a flexi-roll mat for large, super-heavy equipment, but if you are doing circuits with kettlebells or dumbbells or other resistance, a flexi-roll mat might be perfect for you. It is firm, but also absorbs enough shock to make shoes unnecessary. Also, as indicated in the name, it rolls up easily when you don't want it on your floor. http://www.dollamur.com/martialarts/...l?options=cart |
