Over the past month, we’ve become used to at-home workouts. But, if you’re working out at home, chances are you’ll need a yoga mat. Yoga mats aren’t just for yoga, they’re also great for HIIT, stretching, Pilates, and ab workouts. But, with all the yoga mats available, how do you know which one to choose? We’ve narrowed it down to our five favorite mats.
Manduka Prolite Yoga Mat
There’s a reason why people love this mat as it’s extra cushiony and it comes in two sizes—standard and tall. The mat won’t fade, peel, or flake, no matter how many times you use it and the dot pattern prevents slippage even when you’re drenching in sweat.
Alo Yoga Warrior Mat
No odors are getting past this mat and the matte rubber top minimizes moisture and prevents slippage. There’s millennial pink, jungle green, white with metallic detailing, and classic black. Which color will you choose?
Lulelemon The Reversible (Un) Mat Lightweight
Not only is the mat great for traveling, but it’s perfect for petite people and teens as it’s a bit shorter. The ultra-absorbent top layer made of polyurethane prevents moisture from forming on the mat.
Gaiam Thick Yoga Mat
Gaiam’s thick mat is ideal for those suffering from back or knee problems as it provides extra support. The “closed-cell construction” technology wicks away odor, germs, and bacteria.
Sweaty Betty Eco Yoga Mat
There’s not one, but two layers of non-slip fabric that will give you a better grip than other mats. It’s also biodegradable, so you’ll be helping save the planet!
