Crash Cushions

Can we just call them thick bois? Because that’s honestly the best way to describe them, big, hefty, and built like tanks. The weight comes from the dense foam packed into each cushion, which does an excellent job of silencing the occasional 80 lb dumbbells after a tough failure set. I’ve got downstairs neighbors, so I asked if the noise was bothering them. They said the only thing they hear is me yelling “light weight baby!!” (go ahead, insert the Ronnie Coleman sound bite). The handles on the crash cushions make them easy to move around the gym, which is a nice bonus. If you’re tight on space but still want that noise reduction, I’d also recommend DC Blocks. They’re a bit smaller and thinner, but still do a great job at deadening sound when you drop weights on them.

Best investment I made interms of protecting my equipments, platform as well as the noise reduction so I don’t wake up my neighbors when I do my late night sessions!

Really well put together i love that they used thick velcro to close up the cover instead of the conventional zipper which are prone to popping off over time. I’ve been abusing this pad since i got it dropping from overhead constantly. Not only does it dampen the noise dramatically it also greatly minimizes ware on my plates and bar.
