ProsourceFit Tri-Fold Folding Thick Exercise Mat 6’x2’ with Carrying Handles for Tumbling, MMA, Martial Arts, Gymnastics, Stretching, Core Workouts

I received my mat yesterday, which could not have been more fortuitous. I had been doing serious landscaping work in my yard and my poor, arthritic back was screaming and weeping. Lo and behold, this mat allowed me to do the floor exercises my physical therapist recommended in a comfortable, nay, pleasant way. I have had arthritis since age 16. Floor exercises have been a consistent bugaboo for me, because hard surfaces put too much strain on my knees and wrists. Yoga mats are almost worse, especially if they're textured. This mat eliminated that problem; the first time that's happened outside of physio! It's compact and easily stowed; the rectangular shape is very much appreciated, as it slips neatly and effortlessly into my closet. I like the color, also--it's bright and cheery and gives just that little something extra to look forward to in a workout. Now to the downsides/potential downsides: It definitely has a strong plastic odor. Not at all uncommon with products like this. I hope airing it out will help with that. I aired it for a couple of hours before using it yesterday; by today there is still some lingering odor. Be mindful of this if you're sensitive. I expect that this is a temporary issue. The cover already has some areas where it seems puckered, and repeated stress could possibly wear it out fairly quickly. Time will tell. There are no egregiously sloppy stitches or design flaws. I choose to expect the best, but I'll certainly update as time passes. If you're like me and struggle with floor exercises on hard surfaces, do yourself a HUGE favor and get this mat.

I got this folding gym mat for my daughter, and it’s been great for floor exercises. The padding helps reduce back pressure, and she says it’s much more comfortable than a yoga mat. Plus, it folds up easily, so it doesn’t take up much room!

Très bon produit : épaisseur, qualité de la protection. A placer dans un endroit qui ne gêne pas dans un appartement

Our daughters use this ProSource mat to practice gymnastics at home and it gives great support for stretching, rolls and basic skills. The padding feels thick and comfortable, the surface wipes clean and the tri-fold design makes it easy to store when not in use. If you want a sturdy mat that provides good cushioning and folds up neatly, this one is a solid choice.
