Elevate your training, recovery, and independence with the Small LapMat™ by Equip Products—the world’s only PATENTED solution designed to safeguard the legs of wheelchair athletes, geriatric users, individuals with obesity, and anyone starting their fitness or rehabilitation journey from a seated position. Engineered with input from the fittest adaptive athletes globally, this revolutionary tool ensures you train harder, recover stronger, and unlock your full potential—whether you’re in a wheelchair, managing mobility challenges, or building strength from a chair. Secure the Small LapMat™ to your chair or legs for an extra layer of protection that supports OT/PT goals like functional movement, safety, and confidence, keeping you active longer and ready to thrive.

The Challenge for Seated Individuals:

Dropping a barbell or weight during a lift can deliver a jarring shock, even with lighter loads—posing a significant risk for wheelchair athletes, geriatric users, individuals with obesity, or anyone starting from a seated position, such as those with neurological impairments, paralysis, or limited mobility. We experienced this firsthand: dropping a 35-pound barbell from just six inches onto our laps in a seated position revealed a force so intense, it demanded a solution. Many were relying on makeshift protections like floor mats or cushions, but these lacked the precision, safety, and support OT/PT clinicians and fitness enthusiasts need for effective rehabilitation and injury prevention.

The LapMat™ Revolution: A Game-Changer for All Seated Journeys

The LapMat™, named by the athletes who inspired it, is your answer. Available in two sizes (Small and Large) to accommodate diverse body types—whether you’re a wheelchair athlete, a geriatric patient, someone with obesity, or a beginner in seated fitness—this handcrafted masterpiece is manufactured in our Midwest facility with precision and care. It’s designed to stay out of your way during dynamic movements, yet be instantly ready when you’re pressing a barbell overhead, performing seated exercises, or tackling weighted lifts—perfect for CrossFit-inspired workouts, OT/PT rehabilitation, or gentle fitness routines. For OT/PT clinicians, the LapMat™ supports functional training, promotes neuroplasticity by enabling safe, repetitive movements, and enhances outcomes for all seated individuals by reducing injury risk and boosting confidence.

Innovative Design That Delivers for Every Seated Need:

• Shock-Absorbing Protection: The top layer features custom foam to absorb impact, while the bottom foam shields legs from harm—critical for geriatric users, individuals with obesity, and OT/PT patients rebuilding strength or managing joint sensitivity. A rigid core between the foams diffuses weight across your lap, minimizing injury risk and supporting safe functional movement for all seated individuals.
• Dual-Purpose Versatility: Flip the LapMat™ over to harness the bottom foam’s bounce for wall ball workouts or seated mobility exercises—ideal for OT/PT protocols targeting coordination and endurance, as well as adaptive or beginner fitness routines.
• Skin-Safe Straps: Specially designed straps prevent abrasions and protect skin integrity, aligning with OT’s focus on skin health and PT’s emphasis on mobility without compromising safety, especially for geriatric users or those with obesity.
• Compact Precision: The Small LapMat™ measures 14.5" wide and 9" from front to beltline, fitting neatly within the span of your femur (upper leg bone) for easier barbell clearance or weight management in a chair—enhancing OT/PT goals of functional independence and adaptive performance for all seated users.

Which Size Is Right for You?

• Small LapMat™: Ideal for most seated individuals, including wheelchair athletes, geriatric users, those with obesity, or beginners—especially if you’re unsure. It sits securely within your femur’s span, offering optimal protection and weight clearance while supporting functional movement and independence.
• Large LapMat™: Perfect for taller athletes, patients with unusually long legs, or those with larger body frames (e.g., individuals with obesity), ensuring full coverage and performance for rehabilitation and training needs.

How to Strap On Your LapMat™ for Seated Success:

1. Position the LapMat™ across your lap, aligning the front edge with your thighs and the top near your beltline—ensuring alignment with OT/PT goals for posture and functional positioning, whether you’re a wheelchair user, geriatric patient, or beginner.
2. Secure the skin-safe straps around your chair or legs, adjusting for a snug, comfortable fit that won’t interfere with movements—ideal for PT exercises, adaptive CrossFit routines, or gentle seated workouts.
3. Test the fit during a light lift, therapy exercise, or seated workout to ensure it stays in place and provides the protection OT/PT clinicians recommend—ready to enhance your rehabilitation, fitness journey, or daily independence!
