Forget about the discoloration everyone is reviewing. It's a safety hazard. This thing IS NOT for HIT workout such as insanity! It's like a slip and slide once it gets a few drops of sweat on it. I tried it once and thought maybe it had to break in. Well after spraining my ankle I tried it again today. After having it over 30 days I can't return it. So waste of 95 bucks. I ended up doing most of my cardio off the mat. Wish I could return it. It's a terrible waste of space. I'll buy a shag carpet for 25 bucks that's bigger and won't make me slip around like I'm working out in an ice rink. So disappointed. What a waste of money and mat. Anyway. It doesn't slip on the floor much. There is some Movement. THe biggest concern is if you sweat on it. There will be ZERO traction. It was pretty bad after a few drops of sweat and got worse without increasing sweat. As the workout went on and more sweat got on it it didn't matter. It was already useless by that point.EDIT: I’ve bumped the mat up to 2 stars... for HIIT Workouts, I’ve began to use the side not for use with shoes. Ironically that’s the side that has better traction even with shoes. The shiny side use useless for workouts that cause you to sweat.

I rarely write reviews, but this is such great bargain that I feel compelled to share. The cosmetics defect on the mat is a small discoloration caused by the straps. I suspect that it can be removed with a little bit of elbow grease and patience, although I haven't tried it yet. Prior to purchasing I was initially concerned that the straps had left large indentions in the mat, but that was not the case. It is a very large and thick mat, perfect for me working out on the carpet. I highly recommend it if you need a larger mat and are looking for a deal.

I do aerobic on hardwood floors; not so good; I tried snap together foam mats; got blisters on my feet. The Gray Matter mat works well; 72" very good for most aerobic exercises; I am 5'4" and my feet goes off the mat when I do lounges; so I do not do a log of lounges; just kidding. The wider mat, 4' I believe, would be perfect.

I have two of these Gray Matter mats. One is used for exercising and one for laying on the floor to watch the TV. For the exercise part it's flat and just has a bit of cushion. For using it to watch TV it's cool enough to lay on and big enough for my hands to not fall onto the carpet. I can stretch and do little exercises while watching TV, I much prefer it over touching the carpet.

Great price for a very good mat! The size is perfect for high intensity workouts. Good cushioning - we use this over carpet with an average pad which is over a cement floor. My knees are arthritic and this is a huge help absorbing shock. You use the other side for yoga so it's a two-in-one mat. The high intensity side is a bit slick to start, but that quickly wears off after a few workouts.

Good quality mat, although I would prefer that it was a little thicker as I use it on a wood floor and it is a little hard on my knees when I'm performing exercises or stretches that require me to kneel. Other wise it is great, with good traction and a nice size.

It is a heavy, well made mat. I like that it can be rolled up and stored in it’s bag. But, I wish it were just a little thicker.

Provides a nice cushion (especially when paired with the right shoes) for those looking to perform high impact exercises. Sweat is easily wiped off, surface is not slippery, no odd rubbery smell, easy to roll up and put away with the straps provided. Nice value for the price.

I have now worked out on this mat (mainly HIIT) around 80 times and the mat has just about to give a little when I do burpees. It isn't bad and it has lasted fair bit as I am using it intensely.I mainly needed a non-slip surface for burpees and it has given me just that. It also gives me good cushioning for my feet so it is perfect for indoor exercising.

brilliant mat good quality would thoroughly recommend. It comes with a good quality bag so it can be put away or carried with you

So pleased with this mat. I did a lot of research as I wanted a mat that was big enough to do all the Les Mills workouts at home, plus I needed a mat that would not slip about on my tiled floor. It is amazing, does not budge an inch. It was definitely worth spending a bit m

I searched high and low for a large exercise mat of good thickness, that wasn’t slippery and didn’t have a lengthy breaking in period. This mat ticks all the boxes. Great customer service and very swift delivery too.

Just the right size for all my cardio needs, works well with shoes and Vibrams.
