The Pivot Pad transforms any squat rack into a versatile-height hip thrust machine. This innovative pad easily attaches to your barbell, providing the functionality of a commercial-grade hip thrusting machine without the high cost or large footprint. It features a soft foam exterior combined with a rigid core, ensuring both comfort and stability during your workouts.
Traditional benches often lead to uncomfortable hip thrusts, difficult setups, and fixed heights that can compromise proper biomechanics. The Pivot Pad addresses these issues by allowing users to achieve the correct position based on their individual height, making it simple to get into the movement. To use, simply sit on the ground with your upper back against the pad and begin your hip thrusts.
While primarily designed for various hip thrusts, including barbell, dumbbell, and banded variations, the Pivot Pad's utility extends beyond this single movement. It is also highly effective for other accessory exercises such as single arm presses, glute marches, Copenhagen planks, and rear-elevated push-ups.
The patent-pending keyhole design of the Pivot Pad allows it to snap directly onto an Olympic barbell and rotate seamlessly with the user, creating an immersive experience where the pad feels almost imperceptible. For the most comfortable and convenient hip thrust solution, the Pivot Pad can be used in conjunction with the Hip Thrust Pad.
The Pivot Pad is the result of a collaboration between Dr. Kelly Starrett of The Ready State and AbMat. The initial discussions with the AbMat team, prompted by Kelly's desire for a barbell split squat solution, ultimately led to the development of the Pivot Pad. Special thanks are extended to Kyle Divine for his valuable design input.

The Hip Thrust Pad eliminates painful and mobility-limiting hip thrusts, making improvised, temporary fixes a thing of the past. Inventor and gym owner Devan Grell created the Hip Thrust Pad after experiencing the frustration of pads not designed for this specific movement.
These innovative pads are engineered for durability, longevity, and maximum comfort, featuring unique multi-layer well technology. The harder top layer effectively bears and evenly distributes the weight of the load, alleviating pressure on your pelvis. The ultra-soft bottom layer provides extreme comfort, enabling peak hip thrust performance. Unlike some other products that wrap around the bar and may restrict your hinge, Hip Thrust Pads flex with your body, allowing for a deep and comfortable engagement in the movement.
Proudly made in the USA, the Hip Thrust Pad offers the safety and stability necessary to achieve optimal results from your hip thrust exercises.
