WHY YOU SHOULD GET A TRAINING MAT

As mentioned, a mat is essential for significantly improving your training. It protects your body from hard surfaces, offering better comfort. Additionally, most mats today are made with non-slip surfaces.

Use it for Pilates, joint training, thighs, abs, or the entire body. Easily improve the quality of your acrobatic poses with a good surface that protects your elbows.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST TRAINING MAT

When buying a new mat, consider several factors. Firstly, reflect on which type suits your needs best. There are thick mats for exercises not requiring floor grip, great for sit-ups needing more comfort. These mats may slightly reduce balance, due to thickness, and rarely have grip surfaces. They aim to be soft and comfortable, typically measuring 8-20 mm thick. Yoga mats are thinner, providing better floor contact, usually 2-8 mm thick, ideal for various exercises. Finally, the mat's length is crucial for comfort and easy storage. Longest mats can measure up to 200 cm, shortest down to 75 cm. Consider the mat's purpose before finalizing your choice of length.

STORING YOUR TRAINING MAT

After use, several storage options exist. The easiest is rolling it up and placing it in a cabinet or corner. However, many mats now have holes for hanging.

Various accessories can be purchased for your mat. For instance, a strap makes it easier to carry, while a bag allows you to bring clothes, shoes, and water to your session. Finally, investing in a cleaning spray is wise, keeping the mat clean by killing bacteria and reducing odor.
