No time to hit the gym in between work, christmas shopping (& parties), sleep, socializing and enjoying time with freinds and family? We have the perfect solution - working out at home! Even though you might only have 15 minutes to spair, it is better than nothing. So let's get started - all you need is a exercise mat!
YOGA MAT GRIP & CUSHION
A high performance mat with excellent grip, density and firmness. Any water or sweat will gradually absorb into the mat to provide the best possible grip and a slip-free surface.
- Best possible grip in dry & "sweaty-wet" conditions.
- Laser cut positioning lines.
- Great support & cushioning from the natural rubber layer.
- The mat size is bigger than regular mats giving the user the extra space. Once used to this size you will never go back.
