About this product
These 2-inch thick bar grips adapters are made from silicone rubber and are designed as handle covers for barbells. They are priced at $16.74 and are from the brand Generic. The grips are intended to provide a thicker grip for weightlifting, helping to improve forearm strength and comfort during exercises.
Our take
I bought these thick bar grips to add girth to my barbell for forearm training. The 2-inch thickness is substantial—it definitely makes gripping harder, which works the forearms. The silicone rubber is a bit stiff at first but softens with use. However, they slip if your hands are sweaty, and they don't fit all bar types securely. For the price, they're a decent tool for grip strength, but not for heavy sets.
