Ok here is my stupid question. which side of the mat do you use. one is smooth and one has ridges? is it just a matter of preference?
Is this mat thick enough to do sit ups comfortably? The flooring under the mat would be hard woood.

Delivers exceptional value and comfort

If you’re looking for an affordable, comfortable, and beginner-friendly yoga or exercise mat that doesn’t compromise on quality, the Amazon Basics 1/2-Inch Extra Thick Exercise Yoga Mat is a fantastic option. After using this mat consistently for several weeks, I can confidently say it delivers exceptional value and comfort, especially for those who need a little extra cushioning and support during their workouts or stretching routines.šŸ§˜ā€ā™€ļø Comfort & Cushioning – Perfect for JointsWhat really sets this mat apart is the extra-thick 1/2-inch padding. The high-density foam offers a plush, supportive surface that’s ideal for exercises that involve kneeling, sitting, or lying down. Whether I’m doing yoga poses, Pilates, stretching, or even light bodyweight training, the mat provides a shock-absorbing cushion that reduces stress on my knees, elbows, wrists, and spine.If you have joint sensitivity or simply prefer more comfort than what a typical yoga mat offers, this thickness is a game-changer. It strikes a great balance between soft and firm—it cushions well without feeling like you’re sinking into it.🧼 Easy to Clean & MaintainThe textured, moisture-resistant surface makes the mat super easy to clean. I usually wipe it down with a damp cloth after each use, and it dries quickly without holding on to odors or stains. The material doesn’t absorb sweat, and the surface texture also adds a bit of grip—enough to keep me grounded during poses and stretches, though it’s best suited for low- to medium-intensity sessions rather than fast-paced or hot yoga where more traction is required.šŸ‘œ Lightweight & Portable with StrapAnother thoughtful feature is the included carrying strap. It’s a simple but useful addition that makes it easy to roll up the mat and sling it over your shoulder for transport. The mat itself is lightweight, which means I can easily carry it to the gym, a yoga class, or even to the park for an outdoor session. It stores compactly when rolled up and doesn’t take up much space.šŸ’Ŗ Versatile for All ActivitiesThis isn’t just a yoga mat—it’s great for a wide range of floor exercises. I’ve used it for stretching, strength training, core work, foam rolling, and meditation. The generous thickness makes it especially good for lying exercises, offering comfort and insulation from hard or cold floors.At approximately 74 inches long, the mat provides ample space even for taller individuals. I never feel like I’m running out of room when stretching out fully or moving through different positions.🧩 Durable and Holds Up WellDespite its softness, the mat is remarkably durable. It doesn’t tear, flake, or wear down easily, even with daily use. The foam retains its shape well and doesn't compress too much over time. It lies flat on the floor without curling at the edges, and the finish hasn’t shown any signs of peeling or cracking.āœ… Final ThoughtsThe Amazon Basics Extra Thick Exercise Yoga Mat is a standout in its price range. It offers the comfort and functionality of more expensive mats without the high cost. Whether you’re a beginner looking for a soft introduction to yoga, someone needing joint-friendly padding, or simply want a reliable mat for home workouts, this one checks all the boxes.With its generous cushioning, lightweight portability, and multipurpose design, it's a solid addition to any fitness routine. It's also a great gift idea for anyone starting out in fitness or looking to upgrade from a thinner or worn-out mat.Highly recommended for comfort, quality, and value. šŸ§˜ā€ā™‚ļøāœØ

Thicker and softer

This yoga mat is thicker enough, when I lie in this yoga mat, my back would be comfortable. And it would not absorb sweat, easy to clean this yoga mat. Also it provide elastic band to fix mat, that would help us to easily bring mat to yoga class. But when I do strenuous excerise, like bobby jump, it is easy to move. Also it is too softer, when i stand on mat by one leg, I can feel like the mat is not very stiffness, i need to put more force on leg to keep stable. So for some yoga position, it is good. But for stand up position, the support might not be enough. And its dimension is big, I could put all the body in the mat area.

Great as a dog training tool! UPDATED

UPDATE: I've been using this since December 29th 2024, I reviewed this in March.It's still great and despite damage due to dog nails doesn't have heavy tears. Using it outside hasn't done big damage on concrete or stone flooring. I will mention that I hose it down in the shower or outside to clean it and she's even (unfortunately) thrown up on it and it's been a quick clean and dry. If you want to use this for your dogs for any reason this is a great solution, especially if you're working with dogs that might eat bedding but won't touch foam!ORIGINAL:I ordered this yoga mat and cut it in half to use it as a portable place for my dog until we have the space for an indoor cot or KILMB. The benefit is I can also use this on the go like in dog training or when we go on training outings!So far though her nails have done some damage to it the mat has been very comfy and easy to clean if you're using it for your pets. The size is fantastic so if you'd want to use this for yoga I'd say this works for almost all heights! It's not very slippery but light enough to nudge with your feet if you need to. I can't speak to the support but my dog likes laying on it vs the floor (especially in cooler periods) so it must be more comfortable. She eats up beds so I'm waiting for her to grow out of it to have a bed in the living room as she doesn't sleep on the floor or her crate at night.As you can see her tail is going a mile a minute in the photo as she loves things for her and she loves being asked to do something if it makes her feel helpful! The photo was before i trimmed it in half but it's still got a great space range for an amstaff mix that's around 60 lbs even when cut in half if you want to use it as a crate mat or support/cushioning for a dog cot.Genuinely? I might actually buy this for myself to help with my knee injury exercises.

Ok

Good basic yoga mat! But low quality. See we have a dog and his claws just scratch it up. If you don’t have a dog that’s obviously not a problem. Over all, this is a nice yoga mat for the price

Emphasis on Value

If you're looking for a budget-friendly yoga mat, this is a solid choice. I've had it for a few weeks now, and it's held up well for my basic workouts. The extra thickness is great for cushioning, and the carrying strap is a nice bonus. It's not the fanciest mat out there, but it gets the job done without breaking the bank. I'd recommend it to anyone just starting out or needing an extra mat for home use.
