Review on HemingWeigh 1 Inch Thick Yoga Mat, Extra Thick, Non Slip Exercise Mat For Indoor And Outdoor Use, Black by Chris Willis

Oh my GOD finally a good exercise mat! I've been using the BalanceFrom Go Yoga All Purpose Anti-Tear Exercise Yoga Mat with Carrying Strap, Blue for awhile now and I absolutely HATE it. Everything about the HemingWeigh is superior. As you can see in the attached pictures, the HemingWeigh exercise mat is TRULY extra thick, especially compared to the BalanceFrom mat that is supposedly "extra thick high density."I did my forward lunge stretches on both mats and you can see in the picture that the BalanceFrom mat leaves a huge dent where my knee was. You can barely tell I was on the HemingWeigh mat. There was so much cushion and it was such a relief not feeling the wood ground as I stretched. This mat is extremely high quality for the price--save yourself the hassle of looking elsewhere because this is literally one of the best exercise mats I have used at this price. I stretch for about an hour every day and having a good mat is crucial for me. I used to need to fold the BalanceFrom yoga mat to get enough cushion but I definitely would not need to with the HemingWeigh.I could seriously gush about this exercise mat all day. It's also extremely compact and lightweight despite being so much thicker. It's super transportable with the provided straps and SERIOUSLY. If you're looking for an exercise mat, buy this one!Bonus picture of my boyfriend curled up on the HemingWeigh. While he says he would not sleep on it by choice, it's way better than my old mat. PRAISE.
