I ask because for the first time, someone in the gym came up to me and told me it was annoying. I usually let it down in a controlled manner, but it does make sound when it touches the floor because that's physics. After the guy told me he was annoyed, he went to talk to the other guy doing deadlifts. I can't tell if he's just being stingy or if we were both doing it wrong.
this is like going to a construction site and complaining its too loud. Lifting heavy shit and putting it down is gonna make noise. Should have told him where the Yoga studio is. Next time just give him 2$ and tell him to go buy ear plugs or stay home where its quiet.
