If your dumbbells or bars feel a bit too slim in the hand, these Hikeen Thick Bar Dumbbell Grips are a simple add-on for changing the feel of your lifts at home. They slip over standard handles to create a thicker grip, which may suit people who want more focus on grip-heavy training.
This version measures 4 inches long with a 1 inch inner diameter and 1.77 inch outer diameter. Hikeen says they fit most barbells, dumbbell handles, weight bars, pull-down ropes and cable attachments, making them a versatile option for mixed home gym setups.

The main appeal here is the thicker handle profile. Rather than buying separate specialist bars, you can use these grips to alter standard equipment for presses, rows, curls and other pulling or holding movements. For home users, that makes them a practical accessory if you like varying your training without taking up extra space.
Hikeen uses silicone rubber with a non-slip, ergonomic design. The brand also highlights reduced hand fatigue and better comfort during tougher sets. As with any thick grip attachment, the feel will depend on your hand size and the exercises you use most, but the material and shape suggest a secure, durable option for regular sessions.

For buyers comparing thick bar attachments for a home gym, this Hikeen pair looks like a straightforward and affordable choice at £16.99. The 4.5-star rating from 202 reviews suggests plenty of users have found them worthwhile, especially if they want an easy way to make standard bars feel more demanding in the hand.
The main thing to check is sizing and whether a 1.77 inch outer diameter suits your preference, as some lifters may want a larger or smaller grip. If that size appeals and you want a simple add-on rather than new equipment, these grips are a sensible option for home strength training.
