Are these mats appropriate to be used over carpet?

They probably can be used over very low pile carpet such as indoor/outdoor. I use mine over a ceramic tile floor, which I'm sure is the intended use. You just want to make sure that your footing is steady, and the rubber tiles don't shift.

I would not attempt them over carpet. They are likely to shift on you and could cause some serious injuries. Or some laughs. But why risk it

I would think it's alright, but I'm sure you're going to compress the carpet a little.I would think a simple vaccum afterwards should puff the carpet back up. As a previous person wrote, you might have the mat slide a little, but that would be the only thing to watch out for.

We haven't had a problem doing so. It works as a yoga mat for us over our carpeted media room.

I'm using them in that manner. The equipment , BowFlex, sits very level on these pads over carpet. Hope that helps.

Yes, I think they would work on top of carpet. If you were to jump on them or exercise, they may shift a bit because they won't be able to grip the floor, but if that's not an issue for you, then it should work. Our issue was just that they didn't stay locked together when used for exercising.

I would say they are generally intended to be used on a hard surface floor where they would grip better. If putting over carpet they might tend to shift due to the nap of the carpet in the way an area rug does.

They are thin and I'm sure you can put padding under them. I considered it but decided not to do that since it wasn't that important to me. I love the carpet tiles...very satisfied with my purchase.

Absolutely. My living room has carpet and I have no problem using this kit. I just wear socks instead of sneakers.

I bought them specially for wooden floor and tile because these mats are smooth underneath.They sell others with small 'spikes' under the mat to anchor to the rug. You should look for thekind that is most beneficial to your needs (and I guess these are more economical). Good luck!

Yes, they are quite heavy and should settle into thicker carpet nicely. If you are worried about divots in the carpet, I would suggest getting some small furniture sliders to put under the feet.

I would think so...because the mats are small enough fit in just about any floor area.

They should be. although I would use a chair mat. I have an older one that is clear plastic for hard surfaces, there are none of the little spikes on the bottom for carpet. The casters helped me save my chair from going to Goodwill. This was for a set of 5, Nadine.

I do not know anything about Jiu Jitsu or wrestling so cannot answer if the mats are suitable for those activities. I have the mat over cement on my basement floor and it works very well for aerobics, yoga as well as stretching and strength exercises

Yes. Thick, quality rubber mats. Air out outside for a week first if possible.

These are marine grade carpet. You can use it I'd you need something temporary

I use a mat, not the Concept one but the puzzle piece kind, so I'm not 100% sure it that would be fine. My guess would be that it would be, however my only concern would be the sweat... 30min/day is going to produce a lot of sweat, are you going to be ok with it falling on your carpet?

I would say, "No" - but I'm overly cautious. We have hard floors too, so I put some of those play mats underneath for extra padding.

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.

You shouldn't have a problem with the mats being slick. For a workshop they should be fine.

I'm perfectly satisfied with the mats. They go high enough to cover most of the foot rest area and have protected the carpet in our vehicle.

No, you will not need a mat. I have mine on thin carpet and have no issues.

Yes, these are designed to fit where the stock carpet mats sit, through the same eye-loops etc. They are easy to remove though. The floor carpet remains.
