Yesterday at my gym, I was doing trap bar deadlifts on an elevated platform used for jumps. One of the gym trainers stated that I couldn’t use the platform since it wasn’t strong enough to support the weight. He’s right - I could see myself falling through.
Any suggestions on buying, or making a platform? I’m looking for an item for trap-bar deadlifts.
Um…solid wood maybe? I dunno, just a thought.

What’s the other kind, liquid wood?

No no no, hollow wood, as in a box.
I mean, I’m assuming the only reason he’s asking this is because he wants to be sure whatever he uses can hold the kind of weight he’ll be using.
Whatever.
