Not like different health tools, a yoga mat received’t filter out your checking account and you need to use it for each slower and HIIT (excessive depth interval coaching) exercises. The Lululemon is the best yoga mat cash should purchase. It’s double-sided, with unparalleled grip, affords a secure floor, and loads of help.
£88 could appear a big sum for a yoga mat, however Emma Henry, skilled yoga train at Triyoga, insists they’re definitely worth the funding. “There are cheaper mats which are first rate, however they might not final as lengthy. There’s nothing extra irritating in a fast-paced Vinyasa move than slipping, so sufficient grip is vital,” she says.
Lululemon affords a number of thicknesses of mat, however I’d go for the 5mm for joint help. It’s the proper measurement – a contact longer and wider than most traditional yoga mats, at 180cm x 66cm. This implies it affords loads of house to stretch out. Because of its barely thicker development, I discovered it additionally makes the proper accomplice to HIIT and energy exercises in my favourite gym leggings.
Regardless of being thicker than most others, it’s not unduly heavy, at 2.4kg. That’s the higher finish of what I’d think about to be a straightforward weight to hold, but it surely signifies that this mat excels each at dwelling and in school.
The one draw back is that it doesn’t include a carry strap or bag – however that actually is nitpicking. Put merely, it’s an excellent all-rounder that’s greater than definitely worth the funding.
