What to look for when buying Tunturi mats?

Purpose of use

First determine what you use the mat for. For yoga you need grip, for floor exercises cushioning, for beneath your machine floor protection and noise damping, and for recovery an acupressure mat. A mat for one purpose is usually not suited to another.

Material and thickness

The fitness mats come in light XPE foam, comfortable NBR foam and high-quality professional foam; the yoga mats are 8 mm thick or a thinner 4 mm PVC entry. The thicker the mat, the more cushioning for your back, knees and elbows. Choose the thickness based on your exercises.

Size

Measure your available space and your machine. An exercise mat must be long enough to lie fully on; the professional mats of 140 and 180 cm offer extra room. A protective mat must be larger than your machine, so all feet rest fully on it.

Our advice: choose a yoga mat for yoga and pilates, an NBR or professional fitness mat for comfortable floor exercises, and a protective mat or puzzle mat to spare your floor beneath your machine. If you want to relax specifically after training, the acupressure nail mat is a nice addition. Combine your mat with your treadmill or other gear for a complete setup.

Who are Tunturi mats suitable for?

• Yoga and pilates exercisers looking for a comfortable mat with grip and cushioning.
• Home exercisers who do floor exercises and want an affordable or indeed professional fitness mat.
• Owners of fitness equipment who want to protect their floor and dampen noise with a protective mat or puzzle mat.
• Those who consciously work on recovery and want an acupressure nail mat to relax after exertion.
• Beginners and advanced users who want to get everything for their mat needs from one accessible brand.

A light yoga or fitness mat is not meant as full floor protection beneath heavy equipment or as a cushioning surface for heavy weight training; for that you choose a protective mat, puzzle mat or a thicker rubber floor.
