POWER GUIDANCEAb Exercise Mat - Sit Up Pad - Abdominal & Core Trainer Mat for Full Range of Motion Ab Workouts

This is a nice addition to my home gym. I like that it provides lumbar support for sit ups and I also use it for my weight bench.I would have preferred it to be a bit "cushier/softer" as it is rather stiff.

Ideal for anyone interested in an Ab Mat.This Ab Excercise Mat by Power Guidance is well made and perfectly resembles other abdominal mats I have used at various gyms. The specifications of this mat are IDENTICAL to other mats and this particular abdominal mat is much cheaper. This mat provides great support for not only sit-ups and other abdominal exercises but also support for more experienced athletes for movements such as handstand pushups and advanced yoga poses.PROS:*Lightweight*Sturdy backplate for durability*Built to last*Affordable -- one of the cheapest mats I found onlineCONS:*Stiff -- if anything the mat could provide more cushion for comfort*Slick -- first several uses the mat was slick. This no longer was an issue after continued use

Great equipment for abdominal workout.

The media could not be loaded. It allows you to adjust where the pressure on your back is targeted when doing core work. Just bought this in hopes of getting better abs and I think it will really help me achieve my goal. Crunches and sit-ups are easier and more comfortable with this but be safe and watch my quick video review. I do think it helps seeing someone else trying it.

I got this specifically for the purpose of having something comfortably to sit on while doing crunches, easily moveable, And sturdy.So far so good!I busted my tailbone when I was little and it now protrudes making it very difficult to do sit ups or other seated exercises especially ones I have to lean back like Russian twists or v sits and such.This feels good! And I like that it has the c shape scoop to help with form I find my back and hips don’t get tweaked when doing exercisesAll in all very good!I’ve gotten mats before that folks and they within months completely tore open at the seams! I’m hoping this does not do that! It looks to be holding up well and is small enough I can move it on and off the mat I’m using to workout on!

Works well to improve core results.

Love it

I like the exercise mat but I wish I would've ordered the one with that has the extension for additional back support. It's a compact design which I really like and it has enough cushion for my taste. I've noticed I have to position myself just right in order to feel it working when I'm doing my sit-ups or reverse crunches. No issues with stitching that others have mentioned but mine came with a not-too-noticeable tear in the fabric right on the top. It's not a deal breaker for me because this will allow the cushion to ventilate and also not be stretched too taut. Others have complained they find this mat too big but speaking as a guy with an average build I think it's a little on the small side. I'm pleased with the quality and overall construction.
