How to Choose the Right Roll-Out Mats for Your Training Space

When planning to purchase roll-out mats for your training space, it’s important to choose the right specifications, thickness, and dimensions to fit your needs. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make the best decision before and after purchasing your mats:

1.Measure Your Training Area To choose the correct size of mats

You’ll first need to measure the length and width of the area where you’ll be laying them. This will help determine the total area and the number of mats you need. For example, if your space is 6 meters long and 4 meters wide, the total area is 24 square meters. Roll-out mats typically come in a standard width of 1.5 meters, and you can select the length based on your specific requirements.
 

2. Choosing the Right Thickness

The thickness of the mat determines how much shock absorption and comfort it will provide. For martial arts like judo, wrestling, or taekwondo, the recommended thickness ranges between 3cm to 6cm, depending on the intensity of your activities.

2cm – 3cm: Ideal for light activities or areas where space-saving is essential.
4cm – 5cm: Offers more protection for moderate to high-impact activities.
6cm: Best for high-intensity, competitive martial arts, providing extra cushioning for throws and falls.


3. How to Install Your Roll-Out Mats Our roll-out mats come with built-in Velcro strips at the edges, making the installation process quick and easy.

Here’s how to set them up:

Step 1: Clean the surface where the mats will be placed to ensure smooth and safe installation.
Step 2: Roll out the mats to cover the entire area, aligning the edges closely to avoid any gaps.
Step 3: Connect the mats by aligning the Velcro strips at the edges, ensuring they are tightly attached to prevent shifting or separating during training.
Step 4: Make sure the mats are aligned properly and there are no wrinkles or uneven edges, for a smooth and safe training surface.


4. How to Maintain Your Roll-Out Mats Proper maintenance will ensure your mats stay in top condition for longer.

Clean them regularly with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives, which could damage the surface. To store, simply roll the mats up and keep them in a cool, dry place. By understanding these key factors, you can make an informed decision when selecting the perfect roll-out mats for your training space.
