Abstract

A support pad having a body and an attachment mechanism is described herein. The support pad may be made of a non-slip vinyl and adapted for use with weightlifting structures. The attachment mechanism may be a pair of straps that are threaded through a series of loops on each end of the support pad, each strap having an adjustable buckle to allow the strap to be loosened and tightened. The body of the support pad may have an L-shaped lip, the outer portion of the lip forming a curved surface. The inner portion of the lip may be covered with a corner bracket, the corner bracket further having an auxiliary attachment mechanism. The auxiliary attachment mechanism may be a secondary pair of straps, each of the auxiliary straps further having an adjustable buckle and ending in a hook.
