Barbell Pad for Standard and Olympic Barbells with Safety Straps Bonus 30 Day Challenge – Foam Pad for Weightlifting, Hip Thrusts, Squats and Lunges

So I hip thrust 360 sadly it doesn’t hold up I have to buy a new one every month or so, because it cracks :/ it worked fine till 300 and up.

This was very stable and felt comfortable even when squatting 400+ pounds.

I wanted to write an honest review on this item. So, I took sometime using this in my home gym before I decided to post. I bought bar support pad/wraps from two different sellers, only difference.. the first did not have straps. The first pad was from another company. Their pad had good reviews and was cheaper then this item. So of course.. I bought the cheaper one. Within a week I was ordering from this company. I absolutely love this companies bar pad/wrap!!! The straps help the support pad/wrap to not move and stay in place. Believe me, when you have your bar on your shoulders and going into a lunge, sometimes balance can be an issue... the previous bar warp I bought would slide or allow my bar to roll. The first pad did not help keep my bar stable, meaning, that the support wrap with out straps would work it’s was loose from my bar. If I had to adjust my bar there were times the wrap would come completely off and I’d have to set up up the wrap and bar all over again. This product/ bar pad/wrap DOES stay in place perfectly!! It also protects me when doing any kind of weighted thrust, bridges or shoulder/back exercises. This item is definitely a sold buy. The quality is great. The foam is a thick spongy feel, but not too spongy. My weighted bar never exceeds 100lbs, so that being said, the pressure the bar pushes down on certain parts of the pad/wrap never exceed 100lbs. However, even though I’m not lifting extremely heavy weight with this support wrap, the item is used almost daily and has been since it was purchased. Is a great buy.

I’ve had this for over three months and I love it for the hip thrusts in the smith machine. I sometimes use it for calf raises as well in the smith machine. Highly recommend this!

This pad was exactly what my son wanted.

I loved that this was easy to take on and off different bars, which helped to make transitions faster. However too much movement causes the slit in the foam to move where you need padding. I would say if you’re a beginner this is perfect for starting out or quick workouts. I would say stick to 100 pounds or less. Shoulders and hip bones were well protected.

I was expecting a new nice weight lifting pad.I don’t want one with cosmetic problems..Sending back !

Got the red one for pizazz. I’m amazed at the makeup and quality. The foam and its sealed layer are on a level of a much more expensive product. The seller is communicative and definitely encourages the reviews you’re seeing. I jumped at first, because they came across messaging that they “needed” the reviews as a small company. But then I saw there are thousands of five star reviews. Not so needed. I decided to try it out and see. So here’s my non-guilted review: the curve I have to make to accommodate for the thickness, for me, throws off form a bit. And a bit accounts for a lot for me because I have an old neck injury. However, for those without neck injuries, a little bit adds up over time for sure. For me, the extra curving my neck had to do wouldn’t work so I had to transfer the bar lower down my shoulder/back (I see that in some of the pictures people have posted!) This led to a slightly improper form for the wrist. And of course, sitting IT for over a decade, my wrists are going to set off alarms quickly when something isn’t right. For the thickness I’d give it 3 stars, but I didn’t account for that and it was clearly stated and pictured. I am sure they’d handle the issue well as they are good communicators. So 4 instead.

It works great. I don't use the straps as it stay in place enough without them. I use it primarily for barbell hip trusts and it works!

Still waiting to use it,but based on the quality of pad and padding itself, I believe I’ll be happy with it!

Perfect fit on my squat bar. It gives me nice cushion on my shoulder.

Helps alleviate the pressure on hips from hip thrusts

Love this piece for my olympic bar! Easy on and off and saves strain on the vertebrae
