Limber up with the best shoulder stretches

The 5mm version (there are also 3mm, 4mm and 8mm options) feels soft and well-cushioned and provides a plush platform that protects your spine from hard floors without compromising on grip.

Kimjaly Yoga Mat design

The smooth elastomer top layer is good at wicking away moisture, so your hands and feet lock firmly in place on the mat. We like the alignment lines which are strategically placed to keep you focused and to help maintain a good body position. They come in handy for yoga, Pilates or general stretching – in fact any exercise where your body needs to be in a precise aligned position.  

Have you done your four mobility stretches for men to do daily? 

Made with responsibly sourced natural materials, the Kimjaly mat performs well during high-impact workouts and withstands sessions with shoes and heavy dumbbells, plus its non-slip rubber textured underside helps it grip to the floor with no movement or bunching even during intense plyometrics sessions. 

Get prepped for your workout with the best hip stretches

You needn’t worry about getting the mat dirty because the smooth top layer is a doddle to wipe clean. And at 65cm wide it’s roomy enough to accommodate users of most sizes. (Though if in doubt, there’s also an XL version measuring 210 x 70cm.)

The 5mm version is fairly lightweight at 820g and is compact when rolled up. There’s a carry strap, too, making this a suitable option for taking to the office for after-work gym sessions.
