Barbell Pad/Bar cover for squat.

A barbell pad (also called a squat pad, hip‐thrust pad or bar cover) is a cushioned wrap or sleeve that goes around a standard barbell (usually an Olympic bar) where the bar rests on your body (neck, shoulders, back or hips) 

Benefits:

• Reduces pressure and discomfort on contact points (neck, shoulders, hips) when doing exercises like Barbell Back Squat, Barbell Hip Thrust or lunges. 
• Helps distribute the weight more evenly across a broader area, reducing sharp pressure points or bruising.
• Improves comfort so you can focus more on form and lifting rather than worrying about pain or discomfort. 
• Can reduce skin irritation, bruising from the bar on hips (especially for hip thrusts) or on the upper back/neck during squats.
