I am looking for one of those pads they use in gyms. They usually are blue and i think 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch thick. They are not super squezable.

I looked but all Hest fitness and Academy had were ones that you just sink through. I don't think that is going to work for what I want which is a way to do my side abdominal crunches without slamming my ribs against the the floor. I keep bruising this one side.

Century is a supplier to Martial Arts Dojos. Maybe there is a website online. Too lazy to check for you. Sorry.

Dang, TX, I had to get up and walk across the living room to get you an answer! And it's not even time for another beer yet! The one leaning up in the corner is made by Resilite. You can find them at resilite.com or 1-800-THE-MATS, both of which were helpfully printed right on the mat. Seriously, we have two of them because the young 'uns take dance and acrobatics classes. I hope this helps and I will be waiting for my 6-pack of Lone Star.

This is the one I have. I like it. Not too big, not too small. Cheap as heck...$15.00

Thanks. You don't sink into that when you lay on it?

I have one that meets your criteria. No label, though. Got it at an Ames-like store for $3.

grr :( lucky you.

I tried Hest fitness. They were of absolutely no help.
I tried Academy. They had a larger selection but ultimately nothing that seemed like it would fit the boat. And I'm at a loss at where else I could go in person to check it out. I might just have to give cycleprincess's a shot since that seemed like the best bet .
