exervo S1.25 Folding Exercise and Gym Mat

exervo S1.25 Folding Exercise Mat - 4' x 8'

$199.99

We designed this mat with a high-density, polyethylene cell foam. Perfect for standing exercises and poses, pilates or yoga

The S Series Mat is the firmest mat in our line meaning it has the least amount of deflection when indented by a foot, knee, hand, etc. We use 1.25" of polyethylene foam for the core of this mat. Mat deflection at the surface is the only way to accurately evaluate cushioning. In the case of our S1.25 the mat deflects very little making it an ideal choice for standing exercises, poses, yoga and pilates. If you're looking for a mat to cushion a fall then our Contact Series C2.0 is recommended.

Applications

Our S Series is designed for more active floor exercises including gymnastics practice, general exercise, pilates, yoga and martial arts. This firmer nature of polyethylene foam offers less deflection in the foam enabling a firm, more stable and more balanced stance, form or movement. This mat is not designed to be used as a gymnastics landing mat.

Definitions

Polyurethane foam
A polymer which is an organic substance composed of repeating chemical units built up into large molecules whose structure resembles but is not the chemical urethane.
Polyethylene foam
Polyethylene is the most popular polymer in the world and is noted for it's high tensile strength and excellent fatigue and wear resistance.
Rebonded foam
Foam resulting from a process of adhering small particles of foam back together again using various adhesives and bonding processes.
Deflection
To compress at the surface by a specified amount or percentage.
Comfort
The ability of the cushioning structure to deflect at the surface and to conform to body shape, preventing a concentration of pressure on the body without bottoming out.
Indention Force Deflection (IFD)
The measure of the load bearing capacity of flexible polyurethane foam. IFD is generally measured as the force (in pounds) required to compress a 50 square inch circular indentor foot into a sample to a stated percentage of the sample's initial height. Example: If the indentor requires 100 lbs of force to decrease the height 25% then the foam is rated as an ILD 100 foam.
