A wide, flat face so a loaded bar sits across more of your hips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the bar gets heavy, a round pad only covers a thin strip of your hips, and all the load concentrates on that line. The square, flat face spreads it across a much wider area, which is what lets people keep adding weight to hip thrusts without the bar digging in and ending the set early. If the pad is the reason you stopped, not your glutes, this is the fix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCenter it on the bar before you load up, keep the plates even on both sides, and roll under it with the bar in the crease of your hips rather than on your stomach. Set your upper back against a bench, drive through your heels and pause at the top with your ribs down instead of arching your lower back to get higher. A pad this wide also stays put better than a round one, which tends to rotate on the knurling mid-set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes in Black or Pink. Wipe it clean and let it air dry, and store it flat rather than folded so the foam keeps its shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare, wide face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy hip thrusts and glute bridges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePink or Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe clean, air dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlso in the lineup:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/products\/barbell-pad-hip-thrust-squat\"\u003eSquat Pad\u003c\/a\u003e for squats, lunges and lighter hip thrusts; \u003ca href=\"\/products\/leather-barbell-pad-squats-hip-thrusts\"\u003eLeather Barbell Pad\u003c\/a\u003e if you want a wipe-clean leather cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairs well with:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/products\/barbell-collars-quick-release-clips\"\u003eQuick Release Barbell Collars\u003c\/a\u003e to keep plates locked in place.
