Okay, so I’ve been wanting to upgrade my home gym for a while. I finally decided to go all out and get some proper flooring. I wanted something that would be durable, provide some cushioning for jumps and stuff, and look decent. I ended up going with this “cushions volleyball rubber tree assembled wooden flooring” thing – sounds fancy, right?

First, I measured the area where I wanted to put the flooring. That was pretty straightforward. Then, I ordered the flooring online. It came in these big boxes, which were pretty heavy!

Unpacking and Prep

I unpacked everything and laid out the pieces. They were like giant puzzle pieces, made of wood with a rubber backing. The rubber part is supposed to be the “cushion” part. There were also these little connecting pieces, like wooden pegs, to hold everything together.

Putting it Together

The instructions were kind of vague, to be honest. But basically, you line up the pieces and push them together. Then you take those little wooden pegs and hammer them into the holes to lock the pieces in place. It took some elbow grease, let me tell you! My hands were sore after a while. It’s important to make sure everything is lined up perfectly, otherwise the pegs won’t go in right, and the whole thing can get messed up.

• Step 1: Line up the edges of two flooring pieces.
• Step 2: Make sure the rubber sides are facing down.
• Step 3: Gently push the pieces together, ensuring a snug fit.
• Step 4: Insert wooden pegs into the corresponding holes.
• Step 5: Use a rubber mallet (or, you know, a regular hammer with a towel over it) to tap the pegs securely into place. Don’t go crazy, though; you don’t want to break anything!

The Final Touches

I kept going, piece by piece, until the whole area was covered. It took a few hours, and I definitely worked up a sweat. Once it was all done, I stepped back and admired my handiwork. It actually looked pretty good! The wood finish is nice, and it definitely feels more solid and supportive than my old concrete floor.

I tested it out with some jumps and exercises, and it feels much better on my joints. The “cushion” part is definitely doing its job. I think this will really help with my workouts, it is really amazing.

So, that’s my experience with this flooring. Overall, I’m pretty happy with it. It was a bit of work to put together, but the end result is worth it, I think this is wonderful,and this will help me lot.
