Tried to find some 35 or 45 # solid rubber bumper plates that would
be suitable for indoor outdoor use. And to practice the old clean and jerk and snatch. They are ungodly expensive from what I have found on g market. 161,000 for a 35 plate...not a pair, just one.

I understand some things are more expensive here but can they be had for a little less than the above price?

Also I saw the olympic weightlifting thread. Was a gym ever found in Korea?

Thanks.

Since this style of lifting isn't popular here I would imagine it's gonna be an arm and a leg for a good bar and bumpers.

There is a gym in Incheon somewhere. I saw a video of on http://startingstrength.com/ in the forums of a Korean guy lifting in this gym.

You can see the video here.
