Why You Need No Sweat Fitness Mat

By Melissa Ellis


Sweating is a natural response to exercise and it helps to get rid of toxins in the body. Although it is a good thing, it is a subject that one should be worried about because one can contact several kinds of sicknesses from other people's wastes. This is why no sweat fitness mat is now in production. It will help to prevent infections such as impetigo, MRSA, flu and many more.

All antibiotics do not have the same strength. Some infections are difficult to treat because the bacteria that cause them are tough and resistant. One example of such is the MRSA, which means Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus. It can be picked up at the gym by direct contact with a person who is sweating or when the body absorbs the person's sweat from a surface.

Impetigo, also known as Staphylococcus aureus, is a bacterial infection that can be spread by direct contact or from one person's sweat to another. It mostly affects children so parents should endeavour to educate their kids about it. Symptoms include red patches on the skin and plaques.

Another infection to be scared of is flu. It is true that flu is a viral disease but persons visiting a public gym still stand a chance of contracting it when the virus has been carried in sweat which now rests on a surface. When you use the same mat with someone who has catarrh, you are prone to be infected especially if the mat is not the no-sweat type.

Hepatitis B spreads in the same fashion as flu. Sweat does not contain the virus but it can transmit it from person to person and from surface to the skin. One of the first signs you will notice about someone that has Hepatitis B is nausea and vomiting. Then the person may also complain about pains on the abdomen. In more severe cases, the sufferer's urine starts appearing black. Once you notice this, please hesitate no more to visit the hospital.

A precaution to take to avoid these diseases is making sure only no-sweat mats are used in the gym you patronize. Thus, you should be ready to spend more money in such a place. On the other hand, persons looking forward to establishing a fitness center should not relent in buying mats that absorb heat to a great extent so that their customers can be safe from all these infections. As more people become health conscious, you will be making more money as a fitness center owner than your competitors who do not know about this.

Taking care of the mats is not difficult as it is something you can do on your own. You would need dish soap and laundry detergent at least. Warm water should also be available but make sure you do not use an excess of it with detergent. You can use either dish soap or laundry detergent.

To be sure your customers will always return, make sure you replace wet mats before they enter. You may have to wash often and that means you would have to buy more than one. This is to give the others time to dry while your business experiences no downtime.
