Adelaide is shit for rubber flooring.

I looked at over 5 different places and the only place i found that had close to what i wanted was Clarke Rubber but they are so expensive.

I decided to go for this:

RUBBER GYM FLOORING 1m x 1m

Even with shipping it works out cheaper than Clarke Rubber and it is also thicker (the clarke rubber stuff is only 6mm thick).

My flooring is old conveyor belts. Paramount browns has heaps of different thickness and they fairly cheap.

Cheers guys. I`m considering the foam mats that interlock. I know they are not as strong but it`s just for me and the wife to use

There were a heap of those left in the shed when we moved into our current house a few months ago, don't know if I would like to train on the things, bit soft under foot.

Go look in bunnings. I found a couple of rubber door mats that i use to deadlift off now. I think they were about $7 each. You can also get rubber cut to size there, as well as the interlocking stuff.

Clarke Rubber weren't very useful.

The interlocking matts are pretty shit IMO, they deform & rip. Furthermore, I would not want to Dead/Squat on them ....
