Natural Fitness Powerhouse Mat
I am both new and experienced with mats. It’s hard to explain but the extra large size of this mat couple with its thickness and texture makes it a FANTASTIC mat. Especially for the price!

This is a great mat for working out at home, its has enough padding to make it comfortable for doing yoga and crunches. However, because of the padding its not great for carrying it around with you everywhere. I got it primarily for home – and that’s where it needs to stay. It would have been really great if it came with a way to keep this mat tied together just for storage purposes.

This mat is great! It has the perfect amount of stickiness so you don’t slide around when your hands and feet get a little moist. It’s also relatively thick so it’s nice and comfortable to sit and lay on. It seems that the mat could tear pretty easily, so keep you finger and toe nails trimmed and away from pets. Also, this product is supposedly made with minimal impact to the environment and a tree is planted with every purchase. So, it’s an added plus.

This yoga mat is nice and long and thick enough to provide some comfort. It could be a bit wider for a man 6 feet or more in size, however. My only complaint is that in just a month of use I’ve already began noticing cracks and notable “holes” (though not all the way through) at pressure points, such as those caused by kneeling.

This mat has incredible cushion and comfort, it feels like silk, and it is extremely light weight. The down side is that it is not very durable. I once stepped on it with my shoes on, and the foot print stayed for a few weeks. The foot print is gone now, but there are some small tears where the foot print was. I practice Falun Gong which is a Chigong meditation practice. We do 4 standing exercises in which we do not move the feet, and we do one seated exercise in half or full lotus position. That is the reason I bought this mat. It cushions the ankle bone when sitting in half lotus, and prevents it from digging into the floor, which is truly excruciating. Since we do not move our feet in the standing exercises, we do not put much stress on the mat. I would give that some serious consideration if I practiced Yoga. I would not recommend using this mat for outdoor workouts for the same reason. I keep this mat at home. I use a different mat when I practice outdoors. This mat is great for my purposes, if yours are similar to mine, I would highly recommend it.
