new subscriber after finding this video :D
Awesome!
Ditto
Garage gym reviews has invested money in his awesome home gym. Now its time for serious hair transplant tough guy 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️😷
@@eddienguyen1884 nah, just grow a beard
@@zakkai transplant needed there too 😉
Baby did hear it and opened his eyes!
Haha I know!! Thankfully though it wasn't enough to fully wake him. Pretty funny!
Cute kid by the way!
How far was the baby away from the noise in terms of distance and number of walls/ceilings away?
Yup! I seent it!
dude he heard it, opened his eyes and if you do that one more time he would be awake. Be real man!
I got some genuine horse stall mats, used! Pissed on by genuine real horses!
GENUINE!
Same here. Not easy to maneuver these things but WAY better than the expensive flimsy mats they sell at Dick's.
Smell that piss before going for a PR and you're in business
Your baby is just super chill. He totally opened his eyes and just said foik it I’m going back to sleepin.
You're awesome Cooper! Just getting ready to buy all 24 stall mats for our pole barn gym and now we are SOLD. No doubt your humor and personality help people who watch you regularly.
did you ever get the smell out after 3 years?
Exactly what I have , had this in my gym for 7 years now and it’s taking a beating and still looks great
smell still there? how did u get it out or did you?
I'm surprised with some of the negative reviews. I was so impressed with the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMwYg0MOXR4M-oGeyBsNSYe1aPOUoRH6D cage that I got the lat pulldown attachment that goes with it. It is equally outstanding. I don't have one complaint other than putting it together is a job. The instructions and packaging of the parts are very well designed and organized. Also, I stripped and damaged the pull down cable the first day, admitting it was my stupid fault, and they quickly replaced it at no charge. I'm 6'5, 280lbs and fit in the cage just fine. Glenn B
EXCELLENT advice!! I'm converting a bedroom to a garage gym...used 3/4 inch plywood (subfloor) and got some Stall mats from local tractor supply store - ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!! and INEXPENSIVE!! Thank you Coop!!
Downward Spiral how much was the mats
It looks like I'm going to Tractor Supplies to get some stall mats! I do have those exercise mats and noticed my rack system is completely uneven. Thanks for the great tip
Freakin laughed at the follow us like us on social media intro! Great video brotha, just subscribed! 💪🏼😎
really good video mate. Im in the market for home gym flooring. So ill definitely be going with this option.
This is a great video. But I will say there are less expensive options to your blue mats. I bought foam from a craft store and a stall mat. I cut the foam and stall mat to size then made a mat with 3 layers, foam/stall mat/foam. It works really well and there is almost no noise when I drop my barbell.
Thanks. A friend of mine had a 4x4 piece of stall mat left over from his gym. I begged for him to sell it to me so I could build a deadlift platform. Can't wait to get more. Great vid.
This is the coop in the old house, now its all a production , I love the raw normal guy in the garage vibe much more
Thx a lot for sharing your experiences and suggestions! I have started building my home gym on a value budget basis! Rogue RML-3W rack, PRX 4 peg w/wing weight plate storage (wall mounted), used bumper plates at $1 per pound, battle rope, Rogue Matador, used commercial treadmill, climbing rope, Power Block dumbbells, and more!
What was is flooring made of.
@@chad4698 horse stall mats. Bought mine from Tractor Supply Company; they are 4' x 6' x 3/4" and are absolutely perfect for my needs!
Don’t lie to me Cooper I saw his eyes open
The plugs in the beginning was hilarious. That's how everyone sounds
Before I ever saw videos on it, my first that was that some stall mats would be an easy way to get my home gym started. Not for the price, but just for the convenience of going to pick them up at my local farm supply. Anything else, I’d have to order.
Yes yes yes! This video is what inspired me to actually start my own home gym and keeps it cheap
The new rubber smell does go after a few weeks!
Baby opened his eyes! Lol
Haha I saw that after!
CoopTrains he still didn't wake up so good job!
Dude, the baby's eyes opened.
yea but did he wake up?!
@@muffemod I mean if his eyes are open, he was probably awake. It wasn't a big deal because he had a binky and went straight back to bed probably
@@muffemod If his eyes are open he's awake. Who the fuck sleeps with their eyes open?
@@lh1690 I've been caught on video with my eyes open while sleeping usually when I sleep on my back. (sleep study) The administrator didn't seem to think it strange.
@@whitecherokee73 That sure would be a neat tricky for office meetings.
Awesome suggestion! Thanks for making the search easy.
Thanyou so much for the tips! Was looking for "exercise" mats for my gym, and happen to stumble upon your video! Guess I'll be getting some stall mats haha
Glad it was helpful!
Good video!
Brandon Campbell Diamond ayyyyyyyy it's my favorite beardless powerlifter!!
Brandon Campbell Diamond fancy seeing you here, my friend. Lol
Thanks Brandon!
Great advice, thank you
Solid review!
Very helpful. Thanks, I was wondering why the flooring I was looking at was so expensive. Now I have a better alternative. Good video.
You're welcome!
Garage Gym Reviews Hey Coop, I’ve been told by some gym suppliers in the UK to avoid stable mats as they’re called over here, as it doesn’t dampen much noise and absorb much vibration? Are they just trying to push “gym flooring” on me? They mentioned something about gym flooring being “granulated” ??? Thanks in advance!!
Nice bro. I was looking for some mats for my new garage gym👍🏽👍🏽💯💯
Great content! As a garage gym owner your videos definitely help inform me 👍
Thank you!
do you think 1/2 inch matting would suffice? if 3/4" wasn't available?
Hey Coop, as always another great video and congratulations on the little one!
Any chance that when you finally get to completing your review of the Pound Pads you're able to find out the science behind them... such as the foams density & indention load deflection (ILD). If sure Titan Fitness is already cloning these as we speak, which is both good and bad.
That's a great idea Brent! I'll definitely add that in!
Great video. Going to use 3/4 stall mats directly on the concrete of my garage and was wondering if it makes sense to cut out a strip for a piece of wood or would it be better to put in a platform on top of the 3/4 pads?
Also, do you seal the seems because of dirt or moisture?
Another great informative video, thanks!
Hi! Great video! Bought the stall mats, but having trouble effectively cleaning them. What do you recommend? Also, the are gaps in between as not all of them fit together perfectly, so some extra dirt gets between them. Any insight is appreciated!
Never answered 😔
Sir, I am researching equipment to start my home gym. I have watched a lot of your videos and read a lot of your reviews. Do you still recommend the horse stall mats as the best flooring (since this video is 2 years old)? Also, did you have any issue with the smell of the mats? I read a few reviews that complained about a strong unpleasant smell. Thanks in advance!
great info, perfectly brought; And very funny guy.
Coop! I’m not worried about damaging my floor. I’m more curious if the stall pads are rigid enough to give me good support when moving heavy weights. What say you? Do I need plywood under my feet?
Hey man, great vid ! What do you do for heating and cooling your garage ?
He opened his eyes for sure
Great vid, Coop! 👍👍👍
I just rented a truck and picked up the eight horse stall mats that I needed from Tractor Supply. They are selling out immediately as soon as they restock because of the pandemic so I got it fresh out the truck.
Rule number 1 of a home gym. If your drug dealing neighbours don't hear your death metal at 3:30 in the morning; you aren't doing it right.
😂
Hey I got those kind of neighbors also! Lol
My drug dealers are across the street. That would be some loud metal.
Kelly E same. It’s convenient at times.
If you ain't pissing your neighbors off it ain't loud enough
Awesome video man. Thank you!
Adorable kiddo coop. Thanks for another great vid
Thanks Kev!
I'm starting to build a home gym and was already considering stall mats. What in your opinion is the maximum deadlifting weight you should consider lifting on a stall mat before you should consider putting plywood or double layering stall mats to protect cement foundation? Since horses weigh approx. 800-2200 lbs. or 362-1000kg I am hoping a single horse stall mat can support the lifting and dynamic movements from potential falls from 100-400lbs or 45-200kg. Btw, in my particular case you're points about platforms were great; but I don't feel like I need a platform b/c I do straight deadlifts and avoid overhead lifts b/c of scoliosis.
I seen his eyes lazily open but wasn’t startled. I see you’re a financial expert on another channel speaking about Dave Ramsey and TPS, very cool
Very knowledgeable information, well spelled out
Great video Coop as always 👍🏽 nice video production also. Very creative with the baby shot and weight drop 👌
Thank you! Always trying to improve!
thanks for the video! how long does the rubber smell stays? and what brand would you recommend?
Also, put sound dampening stuff on the walls and door. Put one of those slide-under-the-door things that has basically foam on the bottom edge. Do stuff drummers would do. Egg shell mattress foam on walls, etc. Put ambience noise/music in kids room to mask outside noises.
Love the video. I actually am purchasing my whole gym set up and was looking at flooring. This video helped alot. For the sound, ....there is no way I van while my kids sleep since they some how can hear a cow fart in a field in a different county....
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you soo much!!! I wasted my money on those thin matts... Gonna repair my mistakes and buy those firm ones
Awesome!
Horse Stall Mats...dude you're a fucking genius. This is the only video on flooring anyone needs to see. Thank you.
Great man I was looking for the right one now horse stall mats
You should make a video of what weights and bars you need.
Are you gonna make a video of your tool box/garage tour. Because I totally watch that
Love the videos
a bit late to the party but awesome video! Just picked up couple pieces of stall mat for a relatively decent price but got a question... would you (or you guys) recommend putting some stiff/hard carpet underneath? I know there has been concerns over the carpet might make everything feel squishy especially since these stall mats are textured underneath... Was just trying to see if this can be a good way to combat the the fact that these stall mats might move around.... (since carpet is much easier to tape/glue down to the concrete in my garage)
Just got 4 stall mats gonna let them air and sit in the sun for a few days to dimish the smell. Can't wait to lift on em
Did the smell go away for you?
I am considering using this flooring and most likely going to cover a 9’ x 22’ area.
Question 1.) Do you think I should still epoxy coat my entire concrete garage floor as I had planned on before laying down the horse stall mat material?
Question 2.) do I need to use an adhesive to make them stay? I will need to cut the material to make them fit I think. The remaining area of my garage will be used for typical garage activity, home improvement projects, tool storage, etc.
Concerned with the transition area from mat to bare concrete being a trip hazard or Coming up. Maybe I should just cover the whole floor with the horse stall mats then🤔 anyone with thoughts please chime in with suggestions... thanks
hilarious video but also informative!! thanks so much!!
Can you recommend a 6x4 rubber mat that I can roll up and use outside? I wanna use something to keep my squat stand from getting scratched up while I workout outside
Lol baby heard it and thought, man those are so.e good stall mats dad.. then went back night night. Great video Coop. 📹 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video man 👍🏻
I fell in love with your hairstyle ...
Just loved the way you have the intro. That’s so original
So when I built my home gym i started out with horse stall mats because of how thick they are and because of the price, but because they are not interlocking, I found my mats would separate. Started getting lots of dirt in the cracks. Made it really hard to clean. Plus found I would trip when I stepped on a crack. How did you deal with the mats separating? Thanks 😊
Where do we buy Horse stall mats?
Hi, do you have a link to buy that kind of mat for someone in France. Thanks
Thanks for this video! I've had stall mats for a month. They work great, but they really stink. I'm concerned about the air quality and safety. Especially for my kids. Are you still digging these mats, or has your opinion changed on these? And does the smell subside?
I’m ordering stall mats ASAP. Great advice
bro i tried looking for some and all of their shipping prices are over ~$250 :(
Ive used all the other tile style mats and they suck.
I saw horse stall mats being sold and wanted to see if it’s appropriate.
Thanks for this video. Definitely will be buying them
How thick are your stall mats? Is 1/2 in good enough or do you recommend 3/4?
Great video man
dude this video just made my day! hahaha your baby's eyes opened like wtf just happened LOL
How’s it going man. Any suggestions for making a stable surface on carpet. I rent and the workout room I’m putting together is carpet unfortunately. Maybe 2-3 layers of the horse pads? Thanks man. Keep up the awesome reviews.
Yeah, I'd throw down some horse stall mats
Could you do a video of an in home gym setup? Worried about flooring inside the in home gym. Keep up the good work Coop!
Have you checked for Damage under the flooring? I'm planning out my 1-Car garage gym and I'm wondering if I should put 3/4 plywood underneath? I likely won't be dropping from over head.
*slams weight*
*baby clearly hears the noise and opens eyes*
*they work!!*
Thanks for the info. Would you recommend anything under the horse mats for a concrete garage floor? Moisture barrier of some sort?
Not needed imo
Hey, looking to install some 1m x 1m tiles this weekend and wanted some advise. The garage is 2.5m wide by 4m and wanted to know if it was best to lay them square in line starting in the corner or start with a middle row and work from there. Also would it be best to keep them in line or lay rows out by half a tile. Appreciate any feedback. Cheers
Subscribed. Great video
Had our pound pads for about a year now...still work well but they have developed noticeable divots and the absorption/sound reduction has definitely worsened from when they were new. As I understand it they were coming out with a new and improved pad next year...
Aww, that's unfortunate to hear. Hopefully the durability increases.
Nice video. I have a question, can you stretch in that surface without needing a mayt?
Hey man, im currently building my Gym out and have a question about the flooring. I have stall matts but I'm still concerned about the foundation. I bought some pound pads, but don't really like lifting off of them. Do you think adding 2 layers of carpet pad, then 3/4 plywood, then the stall matts would be better? Or just unnecessary.
AWSOME we gonna get that!
Hi, I'm new on this channel. I'm currently fixing an old small room where I'll fit a rack and a bench.
My biggest issue right now is that the floor has a small curvature, it's not totally flat. Would a platform be better for that? What do you recommend (the floor has ceramic tiles already).
Some how he found a way to make mats interesting 😂
Ikr - i dont think I would’ve watched otherwise
Oh man, so happy to find your channel! Should have been subscribed this whole time. Good vid, and thanks for the tip! Now my question would be where did you get your horse stall mats? I'll be checking my area :)
Ha, beat ya to it. I bought 3/4" horse mats at Tractor Supply Co. 3 years ago. Awesome. BTW, they way 90 Pounds each!!
The ideal way to plug info
Hey Coop, can you get your hands on Titan's new Silencer Drop Pads? Interested in how they compare to the Pound Pads.
I went all out on my floor. 3mm underlay., half inch plywood, another 3mm underlay then 15mm stall mat.
Nice video! Hey, where did you purchase your digital clock?
How do you feel about that horse matt flooring if most of my working out is plyometric, sport type work? I will be lifting also, but this is really going to be my space to do everything. I was looking into the Regupol flooring also.
Thanks!
The problem with stall mats is the smell. I had read about it but didn't realize how bad it would be until I had them in my car! It fades with time but I still have to air the garage when I workout many months later.
Titan Fitness just came out with the Silencer Pads, clones of the Pound Pads for 3x less. Would be interesting to see a comparison and long term durability shootout!
Coop, do you do anything to secure your stall mats? I just got my home gym stuff from Black Friday from rogue and started working out. Rowing on the erg and doing burpees seems to move my mats.
I didn't because they're wall to wall, which secures them. You could use carpet tape underneath the mats to keep them together though.
hey coop, have u noticed any difference in the quality of stall mats? the ones i got from tractor supply seem pretty crappy -- the edges that were trimmed to fit my rack shed small rubber particles and the area that i deadlift on shows wear and also has some rubber particles that i need to clean up after every workout. my buddy's stall mat (same dimension) seems more like yours (higher density)
Yes, unfortunately they're all different. Sometimes they good batches, others are thin and warped.
Sounds like yours are upside down man
Coop, have you ever compared Thug Mats to the 3.5” playground tiles? If so, is there a difference? In the materials, construction, or ability to deaden sound? Do the playground tiles work better?
The Thug Mats are much firmer than playground tiles. I wouldn't want to workout on playground tiles personally.
Wow this video is hilarious and helped me find my gym mat! Subbed.
