Exercise & Yoga Mats

The Difference Between Exercise Mats and Yoga Mats

• Exercise Mats: Exercise mats are generally thicker than a yoga mat and are primarily used in general exercise practices such as gymnastics, martial arts, gyms, and at home exercise routines that involve more vigorous movements. They are designed to absorb shock and provide a more enjoyable and safer surface to engage in exercise and the more vigorous activities and sports. Exercise mats are quite versatile in their use, providing the right amount of firmness, cushion, and durability for making floor exercise appealing, safe, and effective for engaging in the health promoting benefits of exercise.
• Yoga Mats: Yoga mats are generally thinner than an exercise mat and are specifically designed for low impact exercises. The thinner and somewhat less firm allows yoga enthusiasts enough cushion while still being able to feel the floor. Yoga mats are often made with PVC material as it offers the right level of stickiness and a slightly softer texture.
