Important Factor To Consider For Choosing The Best Yoga Mat | Flexnest

IMPORTANT FACTORS TO CONSIDER FOR CHOOSING THE
BEST YOGA MAT
2

• Consider The Size Of The Mat
• The mat should be long wide enough to ensure
  that the entire body of the individual performing
  the exercise fits comfortably on it. This is
  especially true in the case of individuals who
  are relatively taller or have a larger body size
  or both. While most companies offer the mats in a
  standard size, some companies cater to the needs
  of individuals with unique size requirements.
  Buyers might have to do some research to find
  such companies and get the perfect sized mat. But
  it is essential to maximize their efficiency and
  concentration during the workouts.

• Pay Attention To Mat Thickness
• The thickness of the yoga mats is an extremely
  important factor as it impacts the comfort and
  safety of the individual. The mat should neither
  be too thick nor too thin as it can prove
  disadvantageous in both ways. A mat that is too
  thin might hurt your body. Similarly, if the mat
  is too thick, people might face difficulties
  while trying to balance themselves during the
  performance of specific exercises. The thickness
  of a standard yoga mat is 1/8th of an inch while
  a ¼ inch is considered thicker. These measures
  can help buyers choose the yoga mats with the
  right thickness through comparison.

• 3M - Mat Material Matters!
• The material of the mat plays a critical role in
  determining its texture stickiness, sponginess,
  and eco-friendliness. It is important to note
  that most yoga mats are made of vinyl or rubber.
  However, buyers can also find eco-friendly mats
  made from a blend of jute and cotton. The choice
  of the material generally depends on the level of
  training that the buyers intend to perform, their
  preference for a specific material, and the
  durability and sustainability of the mat.
  Therefore buyers should carefully consider all
  these aspects to ensure that they choose the
  right material before ordering any
  critical fitness equipment at home.

• Check The Texture Of The Mat
• Checking the texture of the mat is essential to
  ensure that it has the right traction and is not
  too slippery that can increase the risk of
  injury. Even though most buyers prefer smooth
  mats, they should make sure that they maintain a
  strong grip on the floor and do not keep sliding
  around. Avoiding completely smooth PVC mats is
  highly advisable as they tend to be extremely
  slippery. A better option would be a mat made
  from jute, cotton or rubber. These mats are
  especially beneficial for people, who tend to
  sweat a lot and hence can cause the PVC mats to
  become even more slippery. The good thing is that
  many companies offer rubber mats with textured
  patterns.

• Ease Of Maintaining The Mats
• It is advisable to choose a mat that can be
  easily cleaned and cared for without impacting
  its quality or durability. Contrary to the
  popular belief, both PVC and rubber mats can be
  cleaned and kept in a well-maintained state.
  However, the caring and maintenance practices for
  both these types of mats are different and it is
  important to follow them properly to get the best
  value for money. When it comes to jute and cotton
  mats, they prove to be the easiest to clean and
  maintain. Ease of cleanliness is also essential
  to keep the mat healthy and hygienic for a long
  time and prevent them from becoming the breeding
  ground of germs.
