1 Inch Extra Thick Non Slip Yoga Mat - Exercise Mats for Home Workouts, Black (70"L x 23"W)

Let’s start with the most important point: this is not a cheap yoga mat. However, in my opinion, it’s worth every penny, and I’ll explain why I think so. Yoga and fitness mats can be very inexpensive, but they usually come with two major drawbacks. First, they are often made from hard materials — though that’s not the worst part. Second, they tend to be very thin, which leads to discomfort in your knees, elbows, and other joints. This can make workouts unpleasant, especially if you’re on the heavier side. This mat completely solves that issue with its impressive thickness of a full inch. For me, this was an absolute game-changer. Even when exercising on a hard tiled floor, I can perform all my workouts comfortably. No pain, no discomfort—everything feels great. The mat measures 70 by 23 inches, which is a standard size. The material is dense and soft, providing excellent cushioning for any activity. Additionally, it comes with a carrying strap, making it easy to transport without the hassle of awkwardly carrying it under your arm or in some other inconvenient way. The only thing that I didn’t particularly like — though I wouldn’t call it a flaw — is that the surface can become a little slippery when you start sweating. The solution is simple: keep a towel handy, and that’s about it. Overall, this mat is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a comfortable surface for workouts on hard floors. The only drawback worth mentioning is its price, but that’s well offset by its quality.

Nice and thick. Just perfect

Best yoga mat I've ever had, even preferred over more expensive models! I just checked and I bought this almost 4 years ago exactly and it's been invaluable, particularly on my wrists and knees because of the extra padding. I've taken it all over the place and even used it on the deck of a cruise boat for yoga! It's finally showing quite a bit of wear, so I'm about to buy another, but I'll keep the old one as a backup! Highly recommend this mat. Particularly if you have more sensitive knees, wrists or hips.

I started at Camp Gladiator boot camp in January, and many of the camps are outdoors, on concrete, which was killing my tail bone doing core workouts on my super thin yoga mat. I decided quickly that I needed something thicker and heavier duty to hold up to my new workout regime, but I wasn't up for spending $45+ on the mats sold by the boot camp. I searched and searched and read tons of reviews before settling on this HemingWeigh Extra Thick Foam Exercise Mat. Mine has been used at least 3-4x a week since purchase so far. On the first day I received it, I unrolled it in my house for some yoga, and was pleased to see it didn't stretch much, and was definitely thick and comfortable. My German Shepherd stepped on the end of the mat, and her nail punctured it easily, but so far the spot has not torn wider. For yoga, this is hard to keep balance on one foot, and even for some of the poses where feet have to be in alignment, due to how thick and cushioned it is. There is some stretch when doing planks, and if you are sweaty, I recommend a yoga towel to go on top as it is very slippery when wet. I have also made an effort to do most of my standing exercises at camp off of the mat, or use the mat for my hands, but have my feet on the concrete for jumping/mountain climbers/burpees/etc as it does tear easily, but so far it has not detracted from my ability to use the mat. I just wish they had something in this price range that was more durable to a high intensity workout. The mat is super light weight, which makes transporting it easy, and I love the straps that keep it all together. It does hold the form of the roll, so when I stretch it out, I typically place a weight on either end to help lay it flat. It also is light enough that a good wind will pick it up, which gives another reason for the weights. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase, and for the price, I would recommend it to others. I was hoping for a slightly more durable mat, but I am hoping this one gets me through for a few months at least.

This mat is worth the money. Very thick. I have bad knees and kneeling on them hurts. With this mat is not a problem. I use it on tile and hard wood floors. Very very good for my 70 years old body. You could not be disappointed plus no funny odors like some. This is a fantastic product.

Great mat! Nice thickness for comfort on laminate floors. Highly recommend!

Oh my GOD finally a good exercise mat!! I've been using the BalanceFrom Go Yoga All Purpose Anti-Tear Exercise Yoga Mat with Carrying Strap, Blue for awhile now and I absolutely HATE it. Everything about the HemingWeigh is superior. As you can see in the attached pictures, the HemingWeigh exercise mat is TRULY extra thick, especially compared to the BalanceFrom mat that is supposedly "extra thick high density." I did my forward lunge stretches on both mats and you can see in the picture that the BalanceFrom mat leaves a huge dent where my knee was. You can barely tell I was on the HemingWeigh mat. There was so much cushion and it was such a relief not feeling the wood ground as I stretched. This mat is extremely high quality for the price--save yourself the hassle of looking elsewhere because this is literally one of the best exercise mats I have used at this price. I stretch for about an hour every day and having a good mat is crucial for me. I used to need to fold the BalanceFrom yoga mat to get enough cushion but I definitely would not need to with the HemingWeigh. I could seriously gush about this exercise mat all day. It's also extremely compact and lightweight despite being so much thicker. It's super transportable with the provided straps and SERIOUSLY. If you're looking for an exercise mat, buy this one! Bonus picture of my boyfriend curled up on the HemingWeigh. While he says he would not sleep on it by choice, it's way better than my old mat. PRAISE.

Really good yoga mat not too soft or firm. We like using it! Been durable after a couple years.

It not so good

Very good

Perfectly thick for mat pilates where you need more than just a thin yoga mat for your spine, hips, knees and wrists!!! I had the whole pilates class buy this mat!!!! I should be a spokesperson, haha!!!

Lo mejor con diferencia que tiene la esterilla es que no mantiene la forma enrollada, en cuanto la estiras en el suelo se mantiene tiesa y en posición. No resbala y sus 15mm de ancho la hacen super cómoda. El único inconveniente es que, para mi gusto, es demasiado larga.

I previously used to work out on a carpeted floor, so I had a different mat which was thinner. However I tend to workout in my kitchen now, which has ceramic tiles - very hard on your spine when doing any abs workouts! I therefore bought this mat and I've had it for just under a year now and it's still great!
