Stretching Mats

Stretching and yoga mats are a necessity for the constant gymgoer and yoga enthusiast as they are a vital accessory in order to get the full benefit from the workout. The mat acts as a comforter between the user and the ground and is important because it takes away the pressure that would otherwise be felt from exercising on the hard ground itself. A lot of the poses done in yoga would need to be done on a mat in order to hold them for the necessary amount of time without being discomforted by a hard surface underneath. Apart from yoga, anybody can use stretching mats to perform a variety of exercises, from stretching and mobility, to just using the mat as a padded surface for pushups or an accessory for other strength exercises.
