The perfect training mat – what should it be like?

Not only comfortable leggings and tops that perfectly support the bust are the most important companions for every home workout. Training mats are a product without which we can no longer imagine any exercises in the comfort of our homes. Taught by experience, after years of training, testing dozens of sports mats and consultations with personal trainers, we know what the perfect training mat should be like. And you know what? We managed to create one! Read today's post and check if the mat you have in your home gym is the perfect one!

Our brand's assortment has been expanded to include six models of gym mats, which our clients have already fallen in love with. And we, immodestly, will admit that this is a product whose quality and functionality have exceeded our wildest expectations! Before they went on sale,BeShaped training mats were tested for a long time by a number of professionals, including our brand's trainer - Dominika. That is why when we launched this product, we were 100% sure that it would work for each of our clients. But bragging aside, let's move on to the substantive part!

What should a good training mat be like?

First of all, SAFE . Made of certified materials and with reliable grip - i.e. non-slip. Thanks to this, the exercise mat will work well during vigorous fitness training, pilates, but also during a quiet yoga practice. Wherever you want to feel safe and at ease. A good exercise mat is also characterized by an anti-slip coating, which, in contact with wet hands or feet, becomes even more stable. We do not slip on it, and we are even better at maintaining stability and balance.

An exercise mat should also be COMFORTABLE . That is, made of the highest quality materials that provide full cushioning. The appropriate structure and hardness of the mat will protect the joints from pressure and injury, and will make training even more enjoyable and more satisfying.

Let's not forget about DURABILITY . The ideal training mat should be made of a durable, flexible material. We created BeShaped mats using foam covered with synthetic suede. Thanks to this, it is very elastic and resistant to abrasion. A good quality sports mat should not deform, so when choosing yours, pay attention to whether it quickly returns to its original shape after training. 

We wouldn't be ourselves if we didn't mention that the perfect training mat should simply be BEAUTIFUL ! That is, one that will encourage us and motivate us even more to make an effort. Choose the motif that best suits your personality or interior. In our assortment, you will find as many as six original designs, designed in Poland, which we have enriched with motivational inscriptions and energizing colors. 

A mat that will serve us for a long time should also be EASY TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN . A good training mat is, above all, an investment in a successful and safe training. It is natural that during training, it collects dust, sweat and other impurities that we would rather keep away from us. Choose one that you can easily wipe with a soft sponge or a damp cloth after each training without contraindications. Then leave it to dry and roll it up when it is completely dry. A mat that you take care of will thank you and serve you for many years. Remember to choose training mats that can be cleaned at home without the use of specialist cleaning agents or additional equipment.
