Written by I started doing yoga since 2016. At that time I was advancing in skiing. And I felt a huge difference between competition and this deepest self-knowledge. If you move at your own pace and do not chase anyone, the effectiveness increases, the main thing is not to be lazy. As a result, rigidity goes away, strength comes, control over emotions and thoughts.
What rugs would you recommend for men?
The mat should not slip (even if you are sweaty) and be 20-30 cm longer than your height. The width of the mats is also important. Men with a height of 180 cm or more need wider mats than usual.
Yoga mat manufacturers, of course, do not divide mats into men’s and women’s, but indeed, there are mats that are more often bought by male yogis. In a yoga mat, the male audience appreciates additional length, width, durability and a more laconic, discreet design. We have compiled our rating. We have assessed sales statistics and feedback on orders. And here is what we have got.
1. Rishikesh Yoga Mat
In first place is the universal mat. This mat has a version with a width of 80 cm and a length of 2 meters, men usually choose these parameters. Rishikesh deservedly got into the rating. It has a low price, excellent wear resistance, stickiness, and shock absorption characteristics. And there are seven different colors to choose from, including brutal black.
2. Yoga mat Comfort PRO
Perhaps the longest and widest yoga mat of all that currently exist on the market. Its width is 1 meter, length 2 meters. Made of ultra-strong PVC HD. This is a great option for intensive practices in harsh conditions and under the most severe conditions for very large yogis (or for those who need additional space during practice). The mat is presented in classic black. Its weight is 4 kg – not the lightest.
3. Namaste Yoga Mat by EGOyoga
New on our market. Rubber mat with extraordinary grip. The top layer is smooth, the base is rough, which provides stability on any surface. The Namaste mat is universal for any practice, it is tenacious with completely dry and wet palms. The mat has increased length and width. The mat is graphite-colored with a laconic design in the form of an engraving pattern.
4. Manduka PRO Yoga Mat
A practically iconic yoga mat from a famous American brand Manduka. Black Mat Pro mats are considered the brand’s best-selling mats. This is a natural mat with a lifetime warranty for those who are in yoga seriously and for a long time. Provides unrivaled comfort and cushioning. The surface is stylized as fabric and provides grip even with wet palms. The mat is available in standard sizes Standard and Extra long – 2 m long and 66 cm wide.
5. Jade Harmony Yoga Mat
Legendary American rugs are included in almost all ratings. And here it is also not for the sake of the brand. The Jade rug is very durable, withstands harsh practice, durable. What can I say, almost eternal. Its surface is a little rough, hard. The length of these rugs is 180 cm. The colors are signature, bright, juicy. But there are also discreet shades that male yogis choose. The rugs are made of natural rubber. They will be appreciated by supporters of a careful attitude to the environment, because for each rug sold, the company plants one tree.
