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

I bought this particular Ab Mat because it was made correctly, as opposed to the others available on Amazon at the time. I needed an Ab Mat to make Crunches more comfortable and to improve my form - which would hopefully allow me to develop my abs better (NB: sit-ups mainly develop the hip flexors). Each end of the Ab Mat is gradually sloped and forms a different angle (30 & 45 degrees), allowing for varying amounts of spinal extension when lying horizontally on it. There's also a flat piece of mat connected to the 45 degree end which stops the Ab Mat from moving while exercising - I found this to be essential as the Ab Mat itself (if folded up) doesn't grip wood flooring (it may be okay on carpet?). The density of the Ab Mat provides ample support while exercising and isn't uncomfortably hard, even if used extensively it should last quite a long time. Despite the extra cost of the Ab Mat compared to others, in my opinion its design and quality makes it well worth it.

​I bought this product specifically because I have a long-standing lower back issue from an old snowboarding injury. Performing standard sit-ups often resulted in an uncomfortable clicking sensation that caused me pain. ​This purchase has completely solved that problem! ​Key Benefits: ​Targeted Support: It provides the crucial extra padding and support needed for the arch of the lower back. ​Motion Restriction: Crucially, it changes the geometry of the sit-up, effectively removing the specific range of motion that previously triggered my discomfort. I can now do full core workouts without pain. ​Excellent Quality: The build quality is solid, and the size is perfect—it supports the entire lumbar region without being cumbersome. ​If you struggle with lower back discomfort, clicking, or pain when doing crunches or sit-ups, this is an absolutely brilliant piece of equipment. Very happy with this purchase; it has made core strengthening possible again!

Good support doesn't slip and very sturdy

Good quality

Excellent. Very useful. Very effective b

Nice mat but it was too big and firm for me. I’m a petite lady and this was uncomfortable and reached too high up my back.

This is great. Not too high and not too low. I use it for headstand and dragonflag as support cussion. It is firm but still soft enough for the purpose I use it for.

Cool mat. Isolates the abs

Ottimo prodotto

Bon tapis pour exercice. Offre un excellent support lombaire et bon coussins pour le fessier. Fabrication durable et facile à nettoyer

Fantástico complemento para trabajar los abdominales de manera más completa, cómodo y sólido, buena calidad de los materiales. Muy recomendable.

This is exactly what I was looking for. They used a pillow similar to this in my physical therapy to stretch my upper back and though it is not the same brand it’s still accomplishes the same result.

A fantastic mat! I usually would use a little cushion to soften the blow on my tail bone. Saw this mat and thought I'd give it a go. Best money I've spent! Encourages great form and posture and takes all that painful pressure away from my tail bone! Love this mat !
