PACEARTH Barbell Pad for Hip Thrust Pad with Fastening Cloth and Carry Bag, Squat Bar Pad with Closure, Neck & Shoulder Squat Cushion Bar Padding for Hip Thrusts - Fits All Standard and Olympic Bars

I've been going to a gym for several years and I've always had to hunt down the neck pads for the barbell. My club usually has 3 on hand but they tend to be worn out. Now that we're living in a covid reality, I decided to get my own. I'm glad I did. This neck pad works perfectly. What makes this pad even better are the two belts with buckle/velcro that keep the pad tight on the bar which inhibits the pad from rolling around the bar. The only drawback to these straps is that once you loosen them they will fall off onto the floor. There's really no avoiding it. It would have been nice if the straps were already somehow attached to the foam pad. Perhaps it's best though that nothing is glued to or connected to the foam to ensure that it doesn't get damaged or fall apart.So if you need a pad for your barbell, this one will give you much value. Doesn't matter if you use it for squats with the pad comfortably on your back/shoulders or if you use it for hip thrusts with the pad on your hips. The pad provides the right amount of protection and comfort. A sleeve is included. I carry mine in a small backpack and rather than hurrying, I take my time to unsleeve it, remove the straps, place it on the bar, and reattach the straps. You'll use up less time doing that than looking for an available pad in the gym that probably has hair stuck in the velcro, is dirty and dusty, and has the velcro already worn.

I really liked the twin-straps-per-side design..Maybe mine was a fluke but The issue is that the neck area on the pad should have a 'lip' to ensure that the neck (for squats) or the pubic bone (for hip thrusts) have minimum pressure. This pad doe not have the lip on the bottom portion (the opposite side of the slit)..Also, the metal loop on the strap is sown on the inside. That may be a problem because the seams might start eating through the pad.

Amazing! Comfortable to use does not slip and it’s great quality! I had previously ordered from a different seller on Amazon but did not like quality so I returned and ordered this one its perfect! At first I had second thoughts about ordering one with like the cover thingy but it’s actually so useful and I feel like makes it last longer and the Velcro is way faster and easier to use than the other strap ones the others come with :)

This product is exactly as described. The removable straps take an extra minute to secure, but it’s worth the time. Once strapped in its very secure on the bar and doesn’t move around or rotate. Very comfortable to use. I think the carry bag isn’t necessary. Probably won’t use it, but it’s there if you need it. Very pleased with this purchase.

I was looking for a barbell pad to utilize for hip thrusts. They all essentially look the same for approximately the same price; however, this one had thick straps to prevent the bar from sliding. The previous barbell pad was a thin hand-me-down and crushed my pelvis. This one is nice and the compression is just slight enough not to hurt. Furthermore, it keeps the pressure from being too much. I have not had any negative experiences with the straps breaking, but I will update if I do. It also came with a carry bag. This is a nice touch, but I am very unlikely to use it.
