My MMA doesn't have A/C and you slip and slide on the mats due to not having any grip (Muay Thai). would these solve that problem?

I bought these for my wife for her Muay Thai class. She has said that they help with maintaining a solid grip on the mat.

I doubt it. These are felt movers which means they are designed to move items across slick surfaces (e.g., tile, hardwood), so unless it is a polished or very smooth concrete surface they aren't likely to slide well, if at all.

I guess that depends if you're covering the whole room where you're putting it against the walls or to the baseboards of the walls. Are you covering the whole floor wall to wall? I do not know from experience so I can't guess that they might slip a little bit or not. It also depends on how much square footage you're putting down and how aggressive your aerobic workout is going to be. They are great pads they work really well for my basement where I do have them wall to wall for lifting weights and do some lunges. but again I cannot give you a definitive answer to your question . I wish you good luck with whatever choice you make. John G./USMC I guess that depends if you're covering the whole room where you're putting it against the walls or to the baseboards of the walls.

I'd say no. 1. These won't stay on the way you want. (Especially if you're doing kicking drills etc.) They slip and you'll spend more time being annoyed and adjusting than training. 2. The material is cheap. I kept having to come up with new fixes for these. Now they just sit in my closet. Actually I might as well throw them out. 3. They're actually not that heavy. I've worn combat boots that were heavier.

Yes, I would consider it non-slip. Certainly helps with your grip on the M8.

if you have the full size boxing gloves then they might fit if you have a lot of extra room. but in that case i would recommend just getting some hand wraps if you are looking for something to go under your glove. If you have the traditional fingerless mma gloves then they definitely wont fit. If i was you i would just get had wraps

Not at all, its almost like the "grip" isn't there, you can't see it or feel it but it works perfectly stopping slippage. Clean as you normally would.

Sorry it took so long to respond - have been on vacation. We also tried the drawer liner and it helped a bit (we taped it on where we could) but it did slide and looked terrible most of the time. Absolutely no slipping with the Dura Grip pads. We are very happy with them.

Ive used a towel before and its worked fine. I have invested in toesox which really help with the slipping. More practice and the more the mat will break in.

Yes , I use the stability mats even on a carpeted floor. The mats offer more than just stability , they also offer padding for the Total Gym.

It depends on what you are doing. I have 2 mats side by side and do tons of lateral cardio movements (jumping, sprints, etc) between the two. Over the course of an hour the mats will slip maybe a total of 1" with heavy use. If I am just lifting weights there is no slippage.

Yes! That's how we have it used. I can do yoga and martial arts and nothing moves at all, not me or the mat!

These are not meant to secure a/c only support weight. You could probably drill holes to bolt it for more security but you would have to check clearance inside a/c.

Sorry they are not. I have found that a double stick tape or velcro to solve the slipping problem. I also use training pads on top of these just for extra benefit if I am away. The "sticky" also helps in them "going" to the same place every time. Good luck. I have found these pads to be the most helpful training items on the market and bought five sets so I don't get caught between wash days. I have hardwood floors and the "sticky" has not been a problem on them as well.

If you have to use this for MMA the sport may not be for you. Just purchase regular sparring gear.

Absolutely not which makes this mat so great! I have sweaty palms and my old mat had me sliding all over the place. A friend told me to try a yoga towel but it didn't work. You can spray a bit of water on the mat to give yourself more of a grip but I've found it unnecessary.

No experience with that but you could put a non slip athletic equipment pad under it to keep it from sliding
