Tatami mats for weightlifting?

Hmmm

Tatami mats are traditionally used in martial arts like judo or BJJ for their cushioning and grip, but using them for weightlifting isn’t conventional. They aren’t designed to withstand the heavy impact of weights being dropped; they’re more for footing and body protection during falls and throws. For weightlifting, you’d typically want something denser and more durable, like rubber mats, to absorb the shock and protect the floor. However, if you’re performing light weightlifting without dropping weights, tatami could serve as a somewhat unconventional choice, adding an aesthetic vibe to the space, possibly aligning with a philosophy of merging traditional elements with modern practices.
