Mama Geek Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 We have tile floor through out our house. I would like to get an exercise mat that is oversized because I would like to use a foam roller on my back, legs hips etc. I would prefer something at least twice the size of most of the mats I have seen and I would like to be able to roll it up while not in use. Does anyone have something that they like that doesn't cost a fortune, I saw one or 2 in the $130 range and that just seems crazy to me.

6packofun Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The best thing I've found and used are those interlocking foam squares. Walmart has a set of 6 24" x 24" mats that you can arrange how you like--we own 3 sets of them. LOL https://www.walmart.com/ip/Gold-s-Gym-6-Piece-Puzzle-Mat/43524147 (I use them for exercise and we also line the floor of our camping tent with them. They've held up for years!) Obviously they don't roll up but they are easy to take apart and put back together if you have a space to store them. I just slide them between my treadmill and the wall or wherever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitten18 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Something like this? Not very thick. Exercise Equipment Floor Mat 3' x 6.5' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002JVFASU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_hQSAyb30DG8AE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitten18 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 We use the interlocking mats too. They're fast to take apart and stick behind the elliptical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintinative Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I have a yoga mat which I don't think is thick enough for a tile floor. I have tried it when I was on vacation and it was just too thin for floor stuff for me. I had some pain. THIS, however, I puffy heart love: https://www.amazon.com/Everlast-2x6-Folding-Mat/dp/B0048GY8F0 It does not roll up but you can fold it and put it to the side. My kids are constantly using it for stuff too (it makes a good barrier for Nerf wars). All things considered, it is a good price also. I have had mine since 2014 and it's still going strong!

trulycrabby Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I don't know if these are big enough, but here is a six-foot round mat and a six-foot square mat. The round mat is extra thick: https://www.amazon.com/YogaAccessories-Extra-Thick-Round-Yoga/dp/B002OIR1VC/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1483408726&sr=8-5&keywords=round+yoga+mat https://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Direct-6-Feet-Square-Olive/dp/B003JMI2F6/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1483408874&sr=8-7&keywords=round+yoga+mat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
