Barbell Squat Pad – Neck & Shoulder Protective Pad, Great for Squats, Lunges, Hip Thrusts, Weight lifting & More.

Take the strain off your shoulders and hips with the Gymist Barbell Pad. Designed to fit securely around any standard or Olympic bar, this protective pad cushions pressure points so you can focus on your lifts, not the pain.

The Gymist Barbell Pad is perfect for lifters who want extra comfort and protection during heavy compound movements. Whether you’re performing squats (back, front, or split), driving glute strength through hip thrusts and glute bridges, or pushing your lower body with lunges and step-ups, this barbell pad helps reduce pressure on your shoulders, neck, and hips. Its supportive foam design allows you to focus on form, increase training volume, and build strength safely. Ideal for both beginners and experienced athletes, the Gymist Barbell Pad is a must-have for anyone looking to train harder without the distraction of discomfort.

Are barbell pads safe for heavy lifting?
Yes, as long as you use a quality pad. The Gymist Barbell Pad is made with tear-resistant foam designed to withstand repeated heavy use without flattening, so you can train with confidence.

Can beginners use a barbell pad?
Absolutely. Barbell pads are great for beginners who are still building strength and may not be comfortable with the direct pressure of a barbell. The Gymist Barbell Pad helps new lifters focus on technique and build confidence under the bar.

What’s the difference between a barbell pad and a hip thrust pad?
Both barbell pads and hip thrust pads reduce pressure during squats, lunges, and glute training. The key difference is that the Gymist Hip Thrust Pad uses denser foam for extra support and a durable leather outer that protects the padding, making it ideal for heavier hip thrusts and long-term use.

Material: High-density foam with anti-slip coating
