The Best Exercise Mat For Almost Every At-Home Workout
The Best Exercise Mat For Almost Every At-Home Workout
WHAT: TOPLUS Yoga Mat
WHY: Let’s be honest. When it comes to our workout routines, we never used to think that much about yoga mats.
On the rare occasions we motivated ourselves to work out at home, or actually bring our own mat to a yoga class, it seemed like any old mat would do. But now, all we can think about is yoga mats. Turns out, they make a difference in the quality of your workout. Who knew? (Apparently every fitness enthusiast and yoga-lover ever).
And our favorite yoga mat is this one from TOPLUS.
It comes in a bunch of not-ugly, low-key colors (no ghastly patterns of many a crunchy, granola yoga brand), is incredibly lightweight, and rolls up into a medium-sized package with a very convenient carrying strap. Not that we’re carrying it anywhere, but still.
And look, it does the job, which is just more proof that you don’t need to spend hundreds on a 6’ x 2’ mat.
It’s affordable. It’s comfortable and cushiony and protects our wrists when we’re downward-dogging on hardwood floors. It doesn’t slip on said hardwood floors. And it actually grips, meaning there’s no slipping and sliding once we start to sweat.
We’ve tried it for yoga. For stretching. For boxing. For strength training. For Pilates. It was great across the board.
Apparently, it’s also non-toxic and odorless, made from “environmental and recycled material,” and features “dual-layer tearproof design.” We don’t know what half of that means. But it works.
