DMoose Fitness Barbell Pad for Hip Thrust, Squat & Lunges - Non-Slip Thick Foam Cushion for Neck and Back Support with Two Straps - Hip Thrust Pad for Leg Day - Fits All Olympic Bars and Smith Machine

Without a doubt, this pad has been one of the most practical and useful tools whenever I do glute or leg exercises on the split machine. It’s very sturdy and, most importantly, comfortable. A great addition to any workout routine!

I used to squat low bar exclusively, but needed to switch to high bar due to some neck issues making my shoulders hurt. The little 1" shift between low and high bar took away the shoulder pain, but the bar was then pressing directly on the spot where my neck hurts.I bought the pad without much hope of it working, but it does exactly what I need. I'm back to maxing out my high bar squat and tearing up my knees! Couldn't be happier.As far as low bar squats, I don't recommend using the pad. The friction between shirt, skin and bar is necessary for proper bar positioning. Without it, the bar is just resting on your hands pressing down on your shoulders.

I picked this one because of the cloth cover and wide hook-and-loop fastener.My thinking is that the cloth cover will protect the foam and increase the duration and lifespan of the pad.My thinking on the wide fastener is that it will be less likely to snag versus many with a narrow strap.All in all, I think it will do the job well and feel I made the best choice.BT recommended

Very comfortable and durable makes my work outs so much more comfortable.

Great quality holding up well over time, used for squats and calf raises twice a week. Sufficient padding for at least 315 pounds(can't say higher because I've not tried any heavier)

Awesome…very legit and a game changer. Couldn’t even feel the bar and I was hip thrusting 315lbs. Excellent product.

Dmoose Barbell pad is a nice addition to my gym. I don’t have machine for sitting calf raises and without this barbell pad it’s painful on my legs . With the pad I can fully concentrate on my calf’s

Good quality
