Barbell Foam Pad for Squats and Shoulder Support

Comfortable Neck and Shoulder Support for Heavy Lifts

The Barbell Foam Pad is designed to make squats, lunges and hip thrusts more comfortable by cushioning the bar across your neck, shoulders or hips. Its thick, dense foam construction helps distribute weight more evenly, so you can stay focused on form and control instead of pressure and discomfort during your sets.

Built for regular use in home and commercial gym environments, this pad fits most standard barbells and can also be used on certain dumbbell handles for added versatility. A secure, non-slip outer surface helps the pad stay in place once positioned on the bar, reducing unwanted rolling or shifting between reps. The contoured design supports the natural shape of the neck and shoulders, while the thickened foam core provides a stable, supportive barrier between your body and the bar. Lightweight and easy to carry in a gym bag, it can be quickly attached or removed as you move between exercises such as back squats, front squats, lunges, hip thrusts and glute bridges.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• Reduces direct pressure on the neck, shoulders and hips during barbell exercises
• Non-slip exterior helps keep the pad securely in place throughout each set
• Versatile design suitable for squats, lunges, hip thrusts and selected dumbbell work
