The bar digs into the same two centimetres of shoulder from the first warm-up set to the last, until you stop wanting to squat at all.

This sleeve wraps the middle of the bar and spreads that load across a wider band of muscle. On back squats it sits under the neck and traps, so a lifter carrying less muscle across the shoulders gets through a heavy set without bruising. On hip thrusts and glute bridges it does more obvious work, since a loaded bar straight onto the hip crease is what ends the movement for beginners after one attempt. It slides on and off in seconds, so it moves between lifters on a busy floor.

Where it fits

Floors running a squat rack, and school or club gyms where one bar serves lifters of different builds. It costs less than a pair of hand wraps and it keeps beginners on the bar.

Fit one to each bar on the floor.
