Upcycling/Recycling Your Old Exercise Mat

I was waxing my baseboards today using an old workout mat for knee cushioning.

As I was waxing on and waxing off, literally, I was thinking of other ways I’ve tried to keep mats out of a landfill.

I cut up an old yoga mat to use as a shelf liner for my closet organizer - my heels kept falling through the gaps. And I used some of it as a tabletop protector for my weight stand, which is upcycled from my kitchen.

So it got me wondering, how do other Blenders use their old mats in creative ways?
