Barbell Pad – Comfortable Foam Support for Training

My son used a made up pad from loads of foam and bubble wrap but was a pain to put onto the rod each time so needed something that was easier to attach as well as remove. No issues as it does exactly what it is supposed to do and on the plus side is that we both have our own pads so no more sharing.

Very good support for the squat bar. I used to struggle with my back and I couldn't use more weight on the bar because the back would hurt, and this has helped me a lot by not having pain anymore. Very happy!

I'm sure you're looking at this because like me, you struggled with bar bell squats. For me, the pain in my neck/ upper spine just wasn't worth it.When I saw this I had to invest and haven't been disappointed.The pad fits snuggly onto the Olympic bar and is held in place with Velcro straps. It is secure and made of a material that's soft to the touch and with enough padding to make back squats comfortable... yet made of a sturdy enough material that's likely to wear well!A must have for my home gym!

Absolutely love this squat pad! I have always suffered with a bad neck and when I have a bar and my shoulders it really does start too hurt. With the use of this squat pad it has offered me extra cushioning and support so I can happily work out in comfort. I love the design of this product making it adjustable for any size barbells, the anti slip dots and the thick heavy duty material.

The media could not be loaded.

I ordered this for my husband. Now that the holiday is over he is heading back to the gym to lose the extra pounds he got from Christmas and new year.He used to complain about upper back/ shoulder pain so hopefully the extra thick foam pad will provide him more comfort. Plus factor are the straps and the anti slippery dot design - he said it kept the bar from rolling.He has used it several times now and he said it gave him extra support when doing lunges/squats and it can also prevent bruising and injuries.

I've been using this for Hip thrusts for 9 months and, I gotta say, it's really really good. Very firm around the barbell and zero pain when I lift. I highly recommend for hip thrusts ??

Great quality and the colour is soo cute. Very strong and secure, doesn��t budge when on the bar compared to some others I��ve had previously which have been flimsy and not supportive.

I always love to bring my own padding rather than sharing with other for better hygiene. After comparing different products on the market I decided go give this upgrade one a try since it's wrapped with cotton not jut form, and turned out it was a great purchase. This adorable cute padding is soooooo comfortable and soft to the skin on your neck when squatting, yet very secure not moving around, protect you when squatting and hip thrusting. Girls, you need this for your peachy butts!

No not happy

Its ok, but it slides on the bar and turns,especially using the Smith machine. Next time I'd get a proper foam one ,no fabric

When you get this it looks great. It is comfortable and a good size.The issue comes after a few uses. The stitching is not strong enough and came away within about three goes.

Does the job but the velcro came away. Glued the velcro back on but still not great. Comfortable though so will continue to use.

Well this is certainly true to it's word being extra thick - it's really dense incredibly firm supportive foam and slides over a standard bar easily. Very good quality with two fixing straps rather than velcro strips often used on similar ones and it stays in place for light lifting which is all I have tried it with so far - nothing overly vigorous. There are tons of these on Amazon so it's hard to compare after you've looked for too long, but if this is the kind of budget you were looking at then quality wise I would certainly say go for it.

Good looks, good amount of padding, secure Velcro fastening. Very happy with the product, good price for this product!

Overall very good, one minor thing I would change/update is to make the velcro on the fixed part of the pad a little wider. When using it with a thinner bar and you want a tigther fit, the velcro only just reaches from from glap to the fixed part, i.e only a small amount if stuck together leaving a small loose flap that gets caught sometimes.

Works until around 180kg. That's heavy AF so I don't blame any item starting to suffer, however this works really well up until that point in my opinion. Hip Thrusts and Glute Bridge go to.

Good bit of kit ! Does what it says on the can !No slipping when doing heavy hip thrusts

Great for hip thrust workout! It has a strong Velcro.

I got this as a spare in case the gym ones are all taken, I use it primarily for hip thrusts. It stays well on the barbell and doesn't move around which is great but the foam isn't THE softest, so if you're lifting pretty heavy weight it's not the most comfortable. It's still better than none though. For the price it's fine

Had a similar cheaper option previously but kept leaving me with bruises so purchased this as its the same one my P.T has. Really good, works effectively, the grips inside really help it not to move at all once in place, nice and thick cushion too

A quality product; very comfortable when in use; fulfils it's purpose very well.

So I started getting more into strength training post lockdown and apparently I bruise like a peach when doing hip thrusts/glute bridges.So I invested in this pad and it definitely was worth the money. Makes the movement a whole lot more comfortable on my hip area. I also use it on the smith machine for barbell back squats which provides a nice bit of cushion to my shoulders.It feels like a really well made sturdy item. Material is hard wearing and soft around the centre for your neck. It has two Velcro straps which secure the pad around the bar. These can be pulled tighter depending on the width of your bar. Would recommend this item to make lifting just that little bit more comfortable.

This has made using my barbell alot more comfortable, I cant believe I waited so long to get one

Getting this just tells me I need to do more squats!!! So there you go if you want an insentive get this

comfortable and durable this is great value for money for the quality you receive. its very easy to use, easy to clean and small enough to store well at home or take with you in a sports bag for a workout. ideal for your kit .

It is comfortable and easy to use!It is sturdy and durable and has a lovely design!Works perfectly and it is very safe to use!Great value for money!Reccomend it!

I was so pleased to get this as I had been using a towel to support the bar when doing squats.This is so thick and padded I can barely feel the bar on my neck and it seems to help distribute the weight evenly too.It also stops the bar rotating which can be a real nuisance.Good Value and Recommended

Really nice size, fit and support.The materials used are comfortable and easy to clean.It is well made and should last a good while even with heavy use.
