I am retired military, so exercise has always been a part of my daily routine. Since the pandemic I have had to adjust, which is hard because the gym has the equipment I have become accustomed to. I didn’t realize how different it was working out there as when I started to work out at home on my hard wood floors (no carpet anywhere). I thought it would be easy but the military exercise mat is entirely too thin and was making my tailbone hurt tremendously, so I had to give up my sit-ups and some other ab exercises. This kind of threw a wrench into my routine and I could start feeling my motivation go away. I decided to take a look on Amazon for a thicker mat. I should have done this long ago because I found this one I’m writing about. It’s the shape of any typical exercise Matt except it’s 1” thick. It appears to be made of a type of foam (not bothering to look at the description right now). When I pulled it out I thought I was going to sink in making sit-ups even harder but it’s firm but not hard. I like it better than what is at the gym. Durability will be hard to determine until I’ve had it a while but I’m definitely excited to start back up on my exercises. I recommend this mat if you have hard wood floors, bad back, bad knees, etc. I thought I read some negative reviews about mats this thick because of yoga and balance but I beg to differ. If balancing is part of your exercise routine, then a mat which makes balance harder is exactly what you want. Exercise is supposed to be challenging and you need to work harder to see a difference. If that isn’t your goal or if balance is a medical issue, this may not be the right mat for you. Something you may not think about is I have chronic foot pain and this mat makes it less painful for me to stand or jump. For me, this mat is perfect. Read more

Thick and comfortable! Read more

I bought this yoga mat three years ago. It is lightweight and easy to store. It is super comfortable because it is so thick. I needed a squishy yoga mat, as I am larger and didn't want to hurt my knees on the ground. There is nothing wrong with my mat, but I would buy another one if necessary. I use it outside or inside. It was worth the purchase price. The mat is really stretchy, which is a downside when I'm trying to do splits and things like that. Sometimes my foot will get caught and the mat will move instead of my foot sliding over the top. Even with that slight flaw, I wouldn't want another type of yoga mat. Read more

Purchased this mat because it was thick and relatively cheap, and that's what I got. Was already damaged upon receipt and as a former yoga girl, I feel it would not hold up over time going back and forth to the gym. However, it is very cushy and therefore helping with impacts to my injured ankle with exercising at home. I would not buy it again but it is serving my needs right now Read more

I purchased this product because I want to start stretching out. The mat is very durable and well-made. It has a great deal of padding so it’s comfortable. I recommend this product. Read more

I bought this yoga mat hoping it was thick enough to actually be comfortable doing my stretches on my wood floors. This is perfect! It's an inch thick and I am able to everything I need to do without feeling the effects of the hard floor! I also really like that it came in purple!! The size is great and the price was worth it! Very happy with my purchase!! Read more

Love this mat. Great for the knees. And it came in my favorite color! Read more

Their products are excellent quality. I had a question and an issue with something I bought. They were very accommodating. Great customer service. I recommend this product and its quality. It is a lot thicker than most yoga mats which can be good or not so good depending on your requirements. Read more
