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 Gilbert Pfaff

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect on the Smith Machine Bar! Love it!

Love having my very own neck pad instead of having to hunt for one around the gym which may be broken, dirty, smelly, etc. Nicely padded.no more bruised C7 vertebrae after Smith machine squats. Oh yeah.fits PERFECTLY on Smith machine bar. Haven't tried it on anything else yet, but I feel confident it will be fine. I also like to pad a bar bell for laying across my hips and doing hip thrusts; I'm sure this pad will work well for that too. Dark Iron's customer service and post purchase follow-up is fantastic. Just got a reminder to register for warranty, although I can't imagine needing it. This was a great purchase for me. Reasonably priced and oh, so valuable to me!

Pros
  • Easy to use and fits securely onto any standard barbell
Cons
  • May not be effective in preventing barbell marks or bruises
