5 Best Options for Insanity Workout Flooring
1. Plyometric Rubber Flooring for Insanity Workouts
For an exercise mat for insanity that provides excellent cushion and shock absorption, this is it. With all of the jumps and various plyometric interval exercises that come with insanity, a flooring option designed for repetitious and rigorous athletic workouts is recommended, and the Plyometric Rubber Roll is just that.
The rolled material requires no adhesive for an easy installation, and it is made in the USA of the highest quality craftsmanship and materials. Because it is also designed to stand up to the heavy weight of exercise equipment, this rubber roll can serve multiple purposes in your personal workout space. It is durable, high performing, and easy to use, while consisting of the same material that can be found in professional gyms nationwide.

2. Use Martial Arts Mats for Insanity Exercise Flooring
If you prefer a puzzle type exercise mat for Insanity, the Martial Arts Mat is an excellent option. These EVA foam mats come in a variety of colors, and the interlocking design makes for fast installation of a space as small or large as you want.
Insanity workouts tend to produce a lot of sweat, making the non-liquid absorbing surface of closed cell foam a very attractive feature of this exercise mat for Insanity.
The surface is also designed to allow for quick movements, which is important when doing any type of intense interval training. Because these mats are 1 inch thick, it’s one of the best cushioning products for floor exercises and won’t slow the participant down.

4. Wood Grain Natural Vinyl Flooring Roll
Perhaps instead of a standard exercise mat for Insanity, you may prefer a gym floor in your space. Many group fitness studios that offer insanity type workouts will use the Wood Grain Natural Vinyl Flooring Roll for this type of application. This synthetic multi-purpose gym flooring has the look of wood but is actually recycled pre-consumer material. It features a closed cell vinyl foam backing and is extremely low maintenance - especially compared to a standard wood gym floor.
However, unlike other Greatmats' insanity flooring, installing Wood Grain Natural Vinyl Flooring Roll is not a do-it-yourself project. Installation requires a full glue down and heat weld to the seam by a flooring professional.
5. Athletic Vinyl Padded Roll Insanity Flooring
If finding an insanity flooring option that will be extremely sound and shock absorbent is important to you, the Athletic Vinyl Padded roll is among the best options. This flooring is extremely ergonomic and quiet underfoot, and is easy to clean and maintain.
Typically used in basketball courts, yoga studios, pilates studios, volleyball courts, dance studios, and cardio rooms, it would be a great solution for insanity or plyometric flooring. It features an attractive, wood-grain surface that is fusion bonded to a 5mm base layer - providing a floor that looks and feels amazing. This flooring is suitable for permanent installations only, as it requires a glue down installation and seam sealing by a professional.
