When choosing a yoga mat, there’s a lot of thought that should go into it. There are so many things to consider—the thickness, the weight, its portability, etc. And a yoga mat doesn’t just have to be for yoga! You want something that is supportive and comfortable for your HIIT workouts and also doesn’t slip when you are practicing your warrior positions.

Which One to Choose?

Before you buy a mat, you want to ask yourself these questions—what level of grip does it have? How much does it weigh and what is its thickness? Can I travel with it? What material is it made out of? And lastly, does it require a lot of cleaning?

Once you have answered these questions you can start looking for what you want. If thickness is important to you, look for something over 3mm, to give you extra cushion. If you want a mat that you can take with you, make sure it rolls up nicely and you can pack it easily.

Take Your Time

There are so many mats on the market for you to choose from—it’s worth doing your research and checking what the companies offer. Take your time trying new ones and pick the one that is the most comfortable for you!

Cassey Ho has been one of our favorite fitness instructors for as long as we can remember, and it turns out she’s as good at designing exercise equipment and accessories as she is at teaching pilates. In addition to her PopFlex line, she’s also had a collection under her Blogilates brand available at Target for almost two years. The collection includes pieces such as yoga mats, weights, and water bottles, and this season even includes a more affordable version of one of her best-selling gym bags at select Target locations. We’re super excited about the launch and here are some of the pieces we’re coveting the most.

Lightweight Yoga Mat

The newest Blogilates mat is only $20 but definitely feels like some of the more expensive mats we’ve tried. It’s only 4mm thick, yet super soft and provides enough cushion to keep your knees comfortable.

Gold Weight Stand

If you’ve got a collection of the Blogilates iconic gold-tone weights but haven’t found a way to store them that does them justice, pick up the new matching 4-tier weight rack. It’s designed specifically to hold Blogilates weights and can help keep any fitness space looking stylish and organized.

Gym Bag

We understand the hype around the PopFlex gym bag, but it costs almost $200, which is a bit more than many of us can afford to shell out. The new Blogilates version available at Target is only $49.99 and includes many of the same features such as an underneath shoe compartment and built-in yoga mat strap.

Like any piece of workout equipment, the right yoga mat can make or break a session, especially when practicing at home without a teacher to guide you. Yoga mats provide support and stability to help you hold poses longer and keep you from slipping, but some are more up to the task than others. With so many mats on the market, it can be overwhelming to know which one to choose. We’ve tried all of the most popular brands to see which yoga mats are best for cultivating an at-home practice. Here are our top picks.

JadeYoga Harmony Mat – $85

This mat is made from 100% renewable natural rubber and is available in more than 10 colors. It’s super grippy and comfortable and comes in three different lengths, so it’s suitable even for taller yogis. Jade also plants a tree for every yoga mat sold. 

Gaiam Premium Yoga Mat – $35

Quality doesn’t have to come at a cost – this mat is more affordable than many other popular mats, yet provides the same comfort and support. It’s designed to wick away moisture to prevent odor-causing bacteria from getting into the material.

Liforme Original Mat – $150

For serious yogis looking to invest in a mat that can stand up to sweat and advanced poses, Liforme mats are your best bet. They have incredible grip and feature designs to help you maintain alignment in various poses.

We love the gym, but there’s something about working out outside that makes the experience much more enjoyable. Maybe it’s the ability to people-watch as we work out or the fact that it provides us with an opportunity to spend a little time in nature, depending on where we go. It can be a bit tricky to accomplish all of our fitness goals without the convenience of weights and machines, but we don’t like to let that stop us. There are plenty of companies that now offer portable, easy-to-clean equipment perfect for use in an outdoor setting. Here are some of the pieces we like to bring with us wherever we workout:

Tangram LED Smart Rope

Jumping rope has never been safer or more fun with this light-up jump rope by Tangram. It can connect to your smartphone to track jump counts, workout times, and more! 

Lululemon Reversible Mat

Lululemon’s yoga mats are made with an antimicrobial additive to prevent them from becoming a home for mold and mildew, so they’re perfect for outdoor workouts. Beyond just yoga, they’re also great for mat pilates and bodyweight strength exercises.

Bala Bangles

Traditional weights can be heavy and awkward to carry, so we love using wrist and ankle weights whenever we want to get a good workout outdoors. Fitness brand Bala makes weights in 1 and 2 lb. options available in seven different colors!
