Why barbell protectors are so important

A barbell without padding can feel quite clumsy. Especially as you start training heavier. A barbell pad acts as a soft buffer, allowing you to focus more on your form and less on the pain. This way, you can safely continue to grow in your strength training. And to be honest: it just feels nicer.

Handy tips for using barbell pads

1. Choose the right thickness

"Too thick can disrupt your grip. A balanced thickness provides just enough cushioning and stability."

2. Place it correctly

Make sure that the pad is exactly in the middle of the rod, so that it doesn't slip or shift.

3. Experiment with settings

For hip thrusts, you might want to place the pad a bit higher or lower than with squats. Check what works best for you.

4. Combine smartly

Are you also going to get started with support rods and weight plates? A barbell pad is then indispensable. Want to complete your setup? Also take a look at our holder accessories.

5. Maintenance and hygiene

Sweat can get into the frog. So let it dry for a while and regularly clean the frog with a damp cloth.

Buying barbell pads: what should you pay attention to?

Comfort

'One material feels softer than the other. Look for a path that feels nice, but is still sturdy enough.'

Closure

Some barbell pads have a Velcro closure or a clip system. Make sure it doesn't slide while you are working out.

Sustainability

"Go for a path that can take a beating. Especially if you train regularly (heavily)."

Versatility

"Do you do hip thrusts or lunges in addition to squats? Then check if your pad is long and wide enough."

Price-quality ratio

"You don't want to compromise on quality. A good barbell pad lasts a long time and saves you a lot of discomfort."
