Post by: Slik on May 19, 2014, 01:45:03 PM
Bought a deadlift platform n the guy threw in a whole set. I know nothing of Olympic lifting. R UESAKA plates high end?  They look like it.

Uesaka is super high end like Eleiko. Power - Lift is the US dealer, I believe.

yeah. It was a nice power-lift platform. Guy threw in the bar n the weights n the power lift bumper rack. My gym lacks a platform so I was happy to get it. Thanks. Ill research it more.

that's a good deal. i wonder what york charged for their lifting platforms back when they used to outfit almost every college with a weightroom in the 50's and 60's.

is there a time frame on the deal? we're re-negotiating our lease and considering moving to a large location, so not sure if we'll need 1 or 2 platforms (or 3, if we go add another 10k sq ft).

in socal, btw.
