The very best yoga mat I've ever used in my practice.

I'm a beginner and I purchased this because I wanted to make a lifestyle change and I hate going to the gym and would rather set up a home gym. I'm not an experienced trainer or anything but I am beyond happy with this mat and the price I paid for it compared to similar ones on the market. It's very high quality and I like the texture as well. I went from completely sedentary to doing HIIT exercises on this mat everyday (definitely not recommended for beginners like me but I did it anyway lmfao and the results are great! want to slim down instantly while getting a bigger ass? its the way to go) and whether its cardio, strength training, or yoga, I feel like I can do everything comfortably on this mat. Some skinny people were complaining it isnt as big as advertised but I personally found this mat to be bigger than I expected and its more than big enough for my purposes. and im not skinny. I have a carpet floor and this mat hardly moves around, it only moves around slightly when I work out on it with my partner. I will say that there is definitely a breaking in period for this mat especially if youre doing something like HIIT, it will be very slippery when you first start especially if you get sweat on the mat. but I've found that working around this has added another element to improve my fitness, and for me it stopped being slippery after I worked out on it about 15 or so times. As a bonus, I'm also a cat owner and my cat really loves to stretch out on this mat and dig her claws into it and scratch it. She does this a lot and so far there haven't been any marks or signs of damage! So I can definitely feel the durability of this mat and I can see it lasting for years, which makes me feel like it was money well spent. The listing doesnt advertise this but this mat also comes with a set of gloves for training, which I didnt expect but was a very nice surprise! I haven't used them personally. This mat is kind of big and heavy to carry around but I don't move it at all so that's fine with me. Highly recommend, this mat is enough to make my own personal gym and I'm happy that this is just a one-time purchase I had to make and that I wont have to spend hundreds per month for a gym subscription. I love that I'm losing weight without paying the industry that profits off of body image issues and eating disorders.

As someone who works out all the time, I’m really picky about my gear — and this mat absolutely delivers. The quality is outstanding, the thickness is perfect for high‑impact workouts, and it gives me plenty of space to move without slipping or sliding. It feels durable, supportive, and way better than the standard mats you see everywhere. If you’re serious about your home workouts, this one is worth every penny. A little pungent odor at first but it soon dissipates.

Sturdy workout mat

We have been hit with a pandemic, we are required to stay at home except for essential activities: grocery store, gas, hospital, and outdoor activity. Going to gyms is not considered essential. I was watching my husband do a workout video and the instructor had an exercise mat. And I thought "That's exactly what I need!" I have carpet so exercise is a challenge especially since we do not wear shoes in the home so I was working out barefoot. I came to Amazon looking for the mat that I saw in the instructor's video and saw this item as well. I decided on this one instead and I'm glad I did. It is perfect. It does not take up too much space but it is enough space for two people to work out comfortably. I can now work out in shoes and I feel steady, it almost makes me feel like I'm in the gym. It is sturdy and I did take away one star because it does slide on carpet. If you exercise really hard, it will slide without something holding it down while on carpet. However, this has not been too much of an issue. Its shock absorbent and my knees thank it. I would recommend this. I have had it for two weeks and have used it every day, first day, it was slippery but I broke it in very quickly simply by working out on it. Since we are all stuck in our homes, if you want to workout with a more solid base, this might be helpful for you.
