Why does one need a gym mat?
Quite a lot of people do not understand the reason for buying such equipment for fitness classes, because the majority of fitness clubs offer it for free. Some people believe that classes can be held without a gym mat.
It is important to remember that during exercise, there is a heavy release of sweat, and mats absorb it very well, so, using the mats offered by the sports clubs is at least not hygienic. Talking about the rejection of fitness mats in general, it is worth saying that practicing on the bare floor is quite painful and dangerous.
