    Dude, as someone who's researched this topic a lot over the years, it's incredible how thorough your video is. You're going to help so many home gyms get started with this video. Kudos!

      Thank you. I wanted to cover everything. I re-did the gym in August and now it's even better. Longer, wider and with wall panels.

      Brother do you have a video regarding the wall panels?​@@MMACoach79

  • @MMACoach79
    @MMACoach79  3 ปีที่แล้ว +21

    One important thing I forgot to mention in the video is that I got this price for 20m2 of panels due to an Italian supplier's error. They thought I was ordering 200m2 of panels, but when they saw their mistake, they didn't want to change the price. So it will probably be more expensive per square meter when ordering just a few panels. It's best to get quotes from your local suppliers and compare them to the rebounded sponge option to see which one works best for you.

    @alexanderbrown133 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video keep it up coach! I do have a question for you. I am opening up my jiu Jitsu school and wanted to use the vinyl cover. However, my concern is the vinyl mat would get too slippery when it gets sweaty in the gym and on the mats. I noticed you mentioned the vinyl covering is mainly used in Serbia. Is there any opinion on sweat and slipping on the mats when used for Muay Thai? Thank you!

    • @MMACoach79
      @MMACoach79  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, it can get very slippery in the summer if people start sweating profusely and puddles start forming on the mat. But having a good ventilation system and/or air-conditioning will counteract that to a to a large degree or totally.
      My vinyl cover has a slightly rougher side and a smoother side. I made a mistake placing the smoother side, but it's still all right as I coach privates in my gym. I've seen rougher vinyls than mine in other gyms in Belgrade, so I suggest you go and inspect the samples and see which one is best for you. You might find a rougher one than mine.
