That's it. I'm about to go to the gym with this in mind.

You don't need to make shit up. Just being more aware will make you see the weirdest things in most commercial gyms. Good to see more Brissy folks on here.
 
This is what I saw at the gym today, and just about every other day I get there!! An empty rack, platform and wall of bumpers!!

What I saw at the gym today was a bloke (huge traps) doing shrugs,
yeah and you say, well when I finished my session with my gym buddy following good old SS we looked over and he was still doing shrugs, I knew this bloke and asked him what he was doing and it was trap day, and was on his last set of 21 reps of 21 sets.

Where'd they get the flooring from?
And dimensions of each piece if possible

Not sure on the dimensions but I'm pretty sure it's old conveyer belt. The platform has been there forever (as have the bumpers) !! I can measure when I'm there next if you like, but they look to be around 2400 x 1200 each (judging by the bar on the deck in the pic) and about an inch thick.
