Review on Dark Iron Fitness Barbell Pad - 15-Inch, Extra Thick, Padded Cushion For Squat, Hip Thrust, Weight Training And Lunge Exercises - Squat Rack Accessories by Mario Portillo

I just used this for the first time today and OMG IT WAS AMAZING! It offered so much padding that I was able to add more weight to my squats and hip thrusts. The quality of this is top notch. The pad is hard but very comfortable on my shoulders/neck and pelvis. The nylon material on the outside is thick and super durable. It fits nicely in my small gym bag. The only thing that's a negative for me is that it barely fits around the smith machine barbell. It did fit, but I had to pull it really tight to have the velcro parts make contact. Now, that could be because it's brand new and the material is really good quality and not stretchy. It may fit better as I break it in. This is the best $8 I've ever spent. I can't believe the quality of this for the cost.
