  • Great for both hip thrusters and squats.
As a guy who has been lifting a long time, I have always wanted to step outside my comfort zone and do heavy hip thrusters. Once I got over the awkwardness of being seen doing them, I also realized how uncomfortable they are on the hip bones and pelvic area. This pad works great, and even allows protection when lifting heavy weights as well. Furthermore, I read a post above with a guy saying this is good for hip thrusters, but pad too wide for squats. I disagree 100%. I also find this to be the best pad I ever used for heavy squats as well. Most pads are too flimsy and move around alot. This one allows you to center the pad with the bar, and tighten the grip with the attached loops with velcro to tighten grip. Padding is comfortable, protective, but not too burdensome or bulky. Would recommend 100%. ... show more

  • Weight lifters must have!!!
I honestly didn't know a barbell cushion existed. I was searching for a different item on Amazon when I came across this. I work out 5 days a week. I always have to bring a towel to put across my body to prevent bruises. Let me tell you..this product has changed my gym life. I've had several people ask me where I got it. It's amazing. No more brusies!!!!! I never leave for the gym without it. Thank you for designing such a great product. It's easy to push onto the bar. It stays in place. It's very comfortable. Light and easy to carry. Again thank you so much!!!!! ... show more

  • Not bad
Great pad, the Velcro frayed really easily though

  • Great neck pad for frequent gym goers.
I loved the firmness of this item. It works as intended. I was at the gym and since I was using the squat bar, and 24 hr fitness doesn't have these neckpads I used to always have to wrap my towel around the bar. It was really time consuming and didn't provide much relief from the grinding of the metal against my skin. This pad alleviated a lot of my issues. It's kind of annoying to put on, because you have to attach the velcro separately, but once it's on, it is great. Since I was on the squat rack for a considerable amount of time, I'm not too concerned with the application of the item. It also fits my neck really well. ... show more

  • Squats in reasonable comfort
I am just getting back into lifting weights and squats are an important part of weightlifting. That being said, I do not have my shoulders and traps built up enough to handle a straight bar without pain. The Gladiator Strength pad makes it comfortable to do squats (as much as squats are comfortable!). No pain on my neck and shoulders. It is easy to slip on and the two velcro straps keep it from coming off until you want it to come off. I can't speak to long-term durability because I have only been using it for a couple of weeks but I think it should last if I take care of it. There are probably more expensive options, but I think this gives the desired result at a reasonable cost. ... show more

  • Great variation on a common product.
As a gym owner, I know this piece of equipment is one of the most used and abused pieces. Most of these pads have integrated velcro and with the customers removing these and tossing them around hundreds of times a day, the stitching can only hold up for so long. I go through these pads about every 2 months. I was happy that this item popped up while I was shopping. With the velcro seperated from the actual foam or covering, I expect this will last much longer. Yanking on the velcro no longer is putting pressure on the pad or the cover. The pad fits the bar great and feels really good. I like the depression in the center as it creates a bit of a U shape to wrap around your neck. The price overall is great too. The straps may outlast the pad but that's fine. I can actually use these straps with the old pads where the velcro has worn out! ... show more

  • Excellent thick pad
I really enjoy barbell glute thrusts as it's an excellent exercise to strengthen the entire posterior chain but to do them correctly, the bar has to sit across my pelvic bones, making it incredibly painful. This pad is exactly what I needed. It's comfortable, and very good quality. I do feel that it's too thick to use for squatting but as far as glute thrusts, there is no better pad ... show more

  • Helps out with my pain I just thought it would be thicker.
It does help me tremendously but I thought it would be thicker! It’s kinda thin!
