MRO Extra Large Exercise Mat 12'x7'/9'x7'/7'x7'/7'x5'(7mm), High-Density Workout Mats for Home Gym Flooring, Non-Slip, Extra Thick Durable Cardio Mat, Ideal for Plyo, MMA, Jump Rope - Shoe Friendly

I wanted a mat for my home gym that would protect the new flooring underneath, have enough space for all my equipment, and have a good texture for yoga/pilates. This mat checks all the boxes and I'm happy with how it works.The logo is big and ugly, but at least it's in a corner.Mine had a moderate smell initially, but that faded quickly. The edges are also lying flat after a few weeks.

Good quality, nonslip surface. Soft but not squishy. I have mine directly on cement in a basement. It does not move when used for vigorous exercise or weight lifting. Works when placed on carpet as well, it lays a little bumpy, but does not move much during exercises.

Works great it's been a year.

I've been working out in my basement, which has plank vinyl flooring directly over concrete. After a few months of different high intensity workouts, my heels started to really hurt and I realized I needed some cushioning. So I purchased this mat. I've found it has helped my heel pain significantly, and it is great to be doing jumping jacks on something a little more cushioned. However, it was extremely slippery at first. Like, holding a downward dog position resulted in both hands and feet slipping in opposite directions. I cleaned it with a household cleaning spray, and after using it a few times I realize the slipperiness got much better. Most exercises when I am on my feet are just fine - squats, lunges, jumping jacks, etc. It is definitely slippery when wet, so that can be a problem if your hands or arms are wet when you're trying to hold a plank. But I personally handle this by using a yoga mat on top for any floor work, and the yoga mat never moves. It's a good compromise for me. I also do think if you're planning to use it for yoga over a hard floor, a yoga mat on top is recommended for extra cushioning. This mat is thick enough for a little extra cushioning but it's probably not soft enough for knees or elbows.

waited some time for delivery but worth it

Just got it and it looks nice. Will be doing my exercise

This mat was exactly what I was looking for. I don’t have a garage, or a basement, or any space that I can have a permanent workout setup. I needed a mat that was big enough to actually work out on (first I tried a yoga mat, then two yoga mats next to each other, which just didn’t work) but that I could easily set up & put away. It’s light enough for me to flip over & roll up but it also protects my floors from me jumping around & sweating. It’s got just enough give that I don’t really need something extra under my elbows for planks (if I do I use an old yoga mat for extra cushion). It was definitely worth the price and so far there hasn’t been any sign of peeling or wear, even though my pets like to get on it & wrestle while I’m trying to use it.

Been using it for a few months now. It’s grippy to workout in bare feet, easy to clean, and absorbs impact enough.
