Depending on how much your neighbors hate you, you might have to think about reducing the noise of your garage gym weightlifting platform.
Check out this post Design for a Quiet, Low Vibration Olympic Weightlifting Training Platform.
Basically, you have to put cushion (like carpet) everywhere two surfaces meet.
Do you have more tips on how to soundproof your gym?

i have 2 neighbors who do olympic weight training under our beach home which is connected to ours. Everyday 4times a day. at 8am, at 10am at 6pm and at 8pm.. Dropping weights onto concrete..the intense sound and vibration cause me to have an episode where for hours after i am very sick. I have asked them to build a platform they will not..i have asked if they will change there times and they will not. It is harming my health due to meniere’s disease that i have as well as copd. I have politly tried to come to a compromise with them and no go. I am told ” I will lift when i want” There is no concern for me. I am not moving. I live in a beach house connected to theirs; house is up high..so the sound and vibration is bad for me health wise. I cant just leave my home as i am ill and that is why i work at home. What can i do to solve this issue?

You could buy them a platform?
Or report them to your local homeowners association….lol
