I've checked out your school's strength and conditioning site numerous times also remember you saying here in a post that you built all the platforms in the gym. The platforms look simple enough, and I have a basic idea of what I plan to do, but I was wondering the dimensions of each section. Basically how wide is each rubber part and the width of the central platform area. Thanks

I don't think I'm gonna make you guys proud :p my numbers aren't high enough for that But I might get extra motivated if I had a free JP tshirt (hint hint, JP ).
Do you guys think rubber covered plates will be good enough if you have a decent platform?

I'm doing snatches at the YMCA in Salt Lake City. (A great place by the way.) This kid comes up to me and asks, "What muscle does that work?" Sensing my opportunity to make a profound, yet sublimely humorous impact on the little guy, I respond, "You know when you're on the field, and your friend throws a football to you, and then you run downfield and catch it? "Yeah," the kid says with a quizzical look on his face. "It works that muscle."
Are they intended for dropping like in an Olympic event? Someone mentioned specifically getting bumper plates, so I think the usual rubber or poly coated plates are really intended to minimize the clang of them slapping together.
Question for Dos: RE Lifting platforms
on the 3th of June I'm competing in a oly weightlifting contest so I guess I better build a platform to train on
