Valeo's Foam Exercise Mat measures 2 feet wide and 6 feet long.
This is an good choice for the man or woman who is a (low impact) yoga or pilates enthusiast and looking for a cheap exercise mat that will not disappoint.
This foam exercise mat cleans up easily. This is extremely important for those who roll up their mats and take them to the gym or yoga class or pilates studio for a workout. It is most important to keep the mat clean. Wiping the mat down once back at home is essential for good hygiene and to prevent the spread of disease. Even in a setting of a low impact workout, germs can be spread easily.
Everyone may not be as clean as you. Therefore, it is up to you to keep your mat clean to prevent the spread of any infections. Of course, this is not to scare anyone or prevent anyone from exercising. It is important to note, however, that MRSA and staff infections are often spread in locker rooms and gyms. Any area with high traffic and sweating people who may come in contact with one another is a place of caution. To be on the safe side, keep the exercise mat clean. The Valeo Foam Exercise Mat is one of the easiest to keep clean and ready to go for the next workout class.
However, we cannot recommend it for those who are planning on aerobics or higher impact exercises. Among our favorite selections for those who are engaged in higher impact exercises but do not need a heavy weight mat, we recommend the 1" thick Thera-Band.
It features two different surfaces on each side - ribbed on one side and smooth on the other. Made of high-density, closed-cell foam for a comfortable workout. The self-grip straps keep the mat rolled for easy transport and storage. The mat can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth.
The cost of this Valeo Foam mat is under $50, usually around $20-$30.

Serves its purpose…
It’s pretty early to say, but it looks like it’ll last a while. I mainly use it for ab workouts.

Cushions well
An exercise mat should be portable and comfortable: this mat is both of those. It’s easy to unroll (flattens out mostly by itself) and easy to roll back up (it has velcro straps…

It’s great!
This mat is great for doing crunches on a very hard floor because it is thick. It is not made to do cardio on – in my opinion, but for isometric exercises it is great!

buy it if
great mat for general exercise. thick and supportive. not great for yoga because single leg balance poses are much more difficult on a thick foam surface.

A good mat
This light mat is easy to clean and fits into a neat bundle. It’s a great density for working out – I don’t feel anything when I’m doing situps on it.
