Overview
The BalanceFrom AP1BLK is a 1-inch thick, 71 by 24 inch exercise mat made from high-density foam with a non-slip textured surface on both sides. It's built for yoga, pilates and floor-based stretching where cushioning on hard floors matters.
At a full inch thick, this mat sits toward the cushioned end of exercise mats, trading some stability for extra padding under the spine, hips, knees and elbows. The double-sided texture is meant to grip the floor and the body rather than relying on stickiness alone. It comes with a carrying strap and weighs about 2.2 pounds, so hauling it to a class or rolling it up for storage is straightforward.
- 1-inch extra-thick high-density foam
- Double-sided non-slip texture
- Moisture-resistant, wipes clean
- 2.2 lbs with included carrying strap
Who it's for
Fits anyone doing yoga, pilates or floor stretching who wants extra cushioning on hard floors, particularly for knees, hips and elbows. Less suited to someone doing balance-heavy standing poses who prefers a thinner, firmer mat for stability.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- 1-inch thickness cushions joints on hard floors
- Non-slip texture on both sides
- Lightweight at 2.2 lbs with a carrying strap
- Wipes clean with soap and water
- Extra thickness may reduce stability for standing balance poses

Performance notes
The 1-inch high-density foam is meant to absorb impact on hard floors while the moisture-resistant surface keeps sweat from soaking in during workouts. The textured non-slip finish on both sides is designed to hold position during poses and stretches. Cleaning is limited to wiping with soap and water rather than machine washing.
