SPRI Ab Mat - Workout Mat Accessory for Abdominal Exercises, Sit-Ups, Crunches, Push-Ups, Core Training, and More - Portable Padded Shaped Mat with Curved Back Support for Toning Abs

I purchased two "ab mats" not for their intended purpose but to use with body weight squats for heel elevation (without shoes), and calf raises using the opposite more rounded side, also as a platform for pushups. The foam is very firm but still cushions well and made pushups more comfortable. I agree with some of the other reviews that I couldn't find a position that felt comfortable using them for crunches, but I do have some lower back issues. However they are very useful for other exercises in your home gym if you need a cushioned base with various angles.

If you’ve ever wanted to feel like your abs are being lovingly demolished by a piece of ergonomically designed foam, the SPRI Ab Mat is here to make your dreams come true. This humble hunk of fitness gear promises to make your core workouts more effective—and by "effective," I mean it’ll have you questioning every life choice that led you to do crunches at all.Pros:Cushy Yet Cruel: The SPRI Ab Mat cradles your lower back like a concerned parent, ensuring you’re doing your sit-ups right. But beware—it’s also a tough-love coach that leaves no room for half-hearted crunches.Compact & Portable: This mat is lightweight and easy to take anywhere, which means you’ve officially run out of excuses to skip ab day.Multitasking Hero: Perfect for sit-ups, crunches, push-ups, and possibly a nap to recover after realizing how weak your core actually is.Cons:Honesty Hurts: The mat doesn’t lie.

It’s like your gym buddy who refuses to sugarcoat anything.Abs on Fire: By the second set, your abs will start a petition to ban this device.Bottom Line:Using the SPRI Ab Mat is like inviting a personal trainer into your home—minus the judgmental stares but with all the burn. It’s a great addition to your workout arsenal, as long as you’re ready to discover muscles you didn’t know you had. Just don’t expect it to be your friend.5/5 Stars. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys pain for the sake of progress!

Thus is much more than an exercise product. My husband and I also use this to stretch our lower backs. It's amazing.

The mat was a bit high for supporting my back while doing sit-ups until I broke it in by using it as a seat cushion on my desk chair for a while. Otherwise good quality for the price and a nice addition to your home fitness equipment.

Great sit-up pad. Doesn't get worn out - even with me using it. Good value.

Love the item very comfortable very easy to use worth its value

Great purchase , to add to your wellness routines.

Works well. Looks like pictures. It slips around on my wood floors, so I have to put a yoga mat under it to keep it from moving. I cut the long care instruction tags off, they bugged me.
