Iron Bull StrengthAdvanced Squat Pad - Barbell Pad for Squats, Lunges & Hip Thrusts - Neck & Shoulder Protective Pad Support

I purchased this as the squat pads at the gym are forever going missing which can make for some uncomfortable exercise. This pad fits snugly around all the Olympic barbells in the gym and stays in place securely, once it's in place it doesn't move. The pad is the perfect thickness for me and really helps to make my hip thrusts as comfortable as they be so I can really focus on perfecting my technique and feeling the burn :) as an added bonus purple is my favourite colour. Overall I'm very pleased with this product and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable squat pad.

Great pad - only gripe is when doing hip thrusts it feels quite big so can’t get full range of motion - may be just me that has that issue though!Still very usable with hip thrusts and very comfy.I feel like this pad is more meant for squats anyway and maybe that’s why!

Great for hip thrusts, stops bruises and much better than the deflated ones in the gym.Only thing I would change is having grips or straps on it to stop it rolling off of the bar.

This provides fantastic cushioning when doing squats. Previously I didn't have any cushioning at all and so after a few sets of squats my trap muscles would invariably hurt under the stress of the load. This changes all that - now when I put this squat pad on the bar I don't feel any pain at all. I can concentrate on my squats which are now fun to do, not a chore. A tip for when you put this on the bar - make sure that the opening is at the top, if it's at the bottom then the pad will slip off when you start to do your squats, a minor point but important nonetheless.

Very good

Amazing product. I don't use it for squats because I don't use a pad for these, but I do use it for hipthrusts and it is so much better than the average pad. I can lift 140kg with this - with the normal pads you get in gyms that would insanely painful. You still get bruises like with a normal pad but it is much more comfortable and thicker than most other pads.

cant grumble for the price at all. easily holds 100kg across the shoulders. mid section is a little thin and I can feel the bar on my spine but i think thats anatomical. I think come 120,130 kg i will need something better

The lettering is poor and much of it peeled off in transit. So doesn’t looks great but does the job ok.

Buena calidad

This product made my workouts so much more comfortable. The density of the foam is excellent, but still provides plenty of "cushion". It fits the barbell very snuggly and doesn't move or slide unless you want it to. I'm finding many uses for it on any exercises involving a straight barbell, and have even been able to add exercises that I previously had to avoid. I would definitely purchase again.

Nice sturdy cushion that stays in place while lifting. Very comfortable and enjoying less bruising on my neck and hips!

My biggest pet-peeve on leg-day was trying to find a comfortable approach to my hip-thrusts. Though I used the pads the gym offered, they were never thick or long enough to stop the barbell from grinding into my hip-bones. I resorted to folding a yoga mat and placing it on my lap. Needless to say, it's hard to focus on proper form when you're bracing from bruising :(Iron Bull's protective pad did the trick! The pad fits perfectly and prevented any nasty bruises or discomfort (even when using heavyweight!) Glad I made the impromptu investment.Pros:-Fits perfectly into my gym bag and is light-weight-The flashy pink colour is eye-catching enough so that I don't accidentally leave it behind-Sits well on the contours of my shoulders (for squatting) and lower stomach (for hip-thrusting)-Less worry in terms of germ spread, as opposed to using and sanitizing the gym's publicly available padsCan't yet comment on the quality (in terms of durability and washability) as mine has only been used for about two weeks' worth of leg sessions. Still, the quality seems promising.Bottom-line: My co-worker and I both regularly use and love our pad! Would recommend to anyone who wants added comfort and ease during their workout!
