hello guys. i wanted to find barbell pads (sissy pads if u guys called it) and olympic barbell collars (standard 2 inch). yesterday i went to fitness concept (yeah i only know such retail shop) and they dont have stock. any recommendation to physical shops in penang which sell dumbells/barbells and such?

online purchase is not feasible currently atm and i need them ASAP.

Try Weider Sungai Besi

i believe sungai besi is in KL, no? im currently reside in penang island

Yea it is. Damn that's gonna be hard.

Why you want to get the pad and collar? Just wondering. No hating lol.

If you can't get 1, maybe try DIY for the pad? Get some foam from hardware shop?

cut up pool noodle in the middle then tape it around barbell? Saw this pool noodle being sold at GIANT

Bar pad is necessary during hip thrusts.
Collars in my gym gone. I and my buddy needed them for deadlifts
Yea maybe need to diy as last resort

Lol first time heard about pool noodle. Will consider

Actually if you need it for hip thrust, just wrap a thicker towel will do the same job. The bar pad won't gonna help you a lot as I tried before. My pelvic bone area still pain even i wrap with a yoga mat haha. I think i my placement wrong.

Gym without collar. I can understand your pain lol. Maybe go ask around ghetto gym and whether they willing to sell u 2 or not. There's very few physical gym equipment shop around penang. Most of the gym will order everything in bulk through some dealer.

Hope you can find the things you need =)

If towel probably i need like six of them lol. Currently im using yoga mat and my pelvic bone hurt like fcuk.

Thanks for the suggestion

Sorry, that hip thrust is during squat or others?

Hip thrust is an exercise.

I was driving yesterday and I suddenly remember how hip thrust is performed.

Thats sexy

I saw a chick did that before in the gym.
