Unique and Innovative Materials Professional Quality Easy to Clean Durable

Four T’s of Buying an Exercise Mat

Type – Material and Texture

Yoga mats require a greater ‘stickiness’ to help with poses. Many yoga mats are made from PVC, natural rubber, and jute.

Pilates and general exercise mats are often constructed of either closed-cell foam or Thermal Plastic Elastomer (TPE) to offer supreme protection against hard surfaces.

Thickness – Thick or Thin

Yoga mats tend to be thin so you can feel a strong connection to the ground during poses, although thicker mats are available. (Range between 0.06 inch / 1.4 millimeter – 0.25 inch / 6 millimeter).

Look for a thick mat when purchasing a Pilates or general exercise mat to help support and cushion your workout. This will help protect the wrists, knees, elbows and spine. (Range between 0.2 inch / 5 millimeter – 0.6 inch / 15 millimeter).

Traction – Smooth vs. Grip

Mats with a ribbed or textured surface can help prevent slipping and provide good grip to accommodate rapid sets and reps while stopping the mat from moving against the floor — ideal for yoga and general exercise.

Mats with smooth surfaces offer the ability to easily transition between poses and help with sliding movements — great for Pilates.

Travel – Portability

Thinner mats made with lightweight materials like TPE are easily stored in a mat bag or can be carried over the shoulder using a mat strap.

Mats with a permanent home tend to be extra-thick and are often made of closed-cell foam or rubber.
