Nice but not for a hard workout,
I bought this mat to use with my P90X Workout DVDs. I wanted to use it as:
– yoga mat,
– padding for jumping jacks/running/lounges,
– ab work
It is ideal for ab work – it has a great thickness and the foam gives very good padding. But for the rest, it’s not so good. For yoga, whenever I’m in a position that requires to stretch and press against the floor (like downward dog, for instance), the mat stretches with me, which is very frustrating. And it may be dangerous.
When I jump on it, it tends to move just a tiny bit, and the foam rubbing against the floor makes an awful, loud noise.
Plus, I used it while wearing my cross-training shoes, and my foot touched the mat while bringing a leg forward in a plank. It ripped it.
I would give it 2 1/2 stars, but it’s not an option. It’s a nice enough mat, but you need to use it for static stuff only, and probably not wear shoes with a substantial sole.

decent for the price,
Good solid exercise mat. I use it mainly to stretch and do ab work. Only annoyance is that since it rolls up, it tends to stay rolled at the very end, instead of being laid out flat. But it’s not really an issue for me, because I don’t stretch my body the entire length of the mat.
