preferably like 10 x 10 but enought space for basically 2 people to work out. looking at walmart not finding much. im going to lay these on top of concrete in my garage.
i want something cheap, but not so cheap im going to shred it first try. let me know where you got some or so nice sites to look at. going to walmart tonight to check them out the maybe head over to sports n more see what i can find there but what yall recomend?

You could check your local listings for free carpet or rugs people are getting rid of and lay ember down I got a good 10x15 foot carpet in mine kinda smells like cat piss when it gets wet but she soaks up oil and gas just fine

I bought packs of 16 square foot rubber mats that connect like puzzle pieces, they were on sale for 10$ ea. I do all kinds of plyometrics, yoga and gynmastics on them, in bare feet. I put underlay(for carpet), on top of plywood and laid the mats on that. I found it was too squishy for some of the balance poses in yoga but other than that, they're really nice. All told I spent around $250 on the setup and I have room for 2 people to work out.

I think if I were to put shoes on, they'd shred pretty easily though.

where did you get them from, this is what i was looking into, even if they're like the colorfull kids playroom shit, i dont care. ill be doing this in bare feet probs.

Me n' the fellas did something similar for our backyard jits. BIG plywood plank (prolly about 8' x 16') with a double-layer of puzzle mat glued to the surface, then one of those blue tarps from Home Depot over that, wrapped to the other side, then stapled in place. We've got four of those that we lay side-by-side.

Works out OK if we're just doing drills / practicing technique on 'em. Though, none of us have tried full-speed randori on 'em yet; not that brave.


/edit

If you bookmark this thread, I'll try and get some pics up over the weekend. I don't remember the cost offhand for all material, but it was a HELLUVA lot cheaper than some other mat options we were looking at.

basically im going to test 2 diferent works outs, being p90 and insanity and see what works better for me, only problem is is that i want privacy and space to do so which mean my 5 car garage. so im going to clear some shit out of the way and put my lap top with hdmi on this big old ass tv i have out there and do work. so im going to be going hard. i was thinking sort of the same being like liquid nail 2 sheets of these kids playroom puzzle mats down to eachother and go from there i just dont want to be busting my self on a hard ass floor.

There ya go. Between material costs for putting 'em together, came to about 45 - 50 bucks per (there's four of 'em.)


/edit

Okay, obviously not 8' x 16'. I'm bad at math.

But, good enough sized that if you lay out a couple side-by-side, you have a good sized area to work with.
