Napa, California – October 2006 – Whether it’s yoga, Pilates, stretching or sit-ups, Harbinger, the industry leader in fitness accessories and workout gloves has a floor mat to meet your needs. From a 3mm mat that’s ideal for yoga to the two-inch thick/eight-foot long folding mat you’ll love to use for stretching, Harbinger’s five mats are cushy, durable and easy to care for.
An exercise mat is a must-have fitness accessory. They make floor work more comfortable by cushioning hands, elbows, knees and spine. Mats also prevent you from slipping and injuring yourself during exercises.
