Gymreapers Gym Chalk, Athletic Powder Chalk for Maximum Grip Magnesium Carbonate Chalk for Powerlifting, Weightlifting, Rock Climbing, Gymnastics Chalk Block (8-2oz Chalk Blocks)

Excellent chalk for lifting!

Working with kettlebells creates a contradiction challenge with grip: it needs to be dry enough to provide a solid grip, while also providing reduced friction to allow the kettlebell grip to rotate in the hand as you move ballistically from start to finish positions. Failing in either of these needs can lead to dropped kettlebells or the formation of blisters and excessive calluses. I can assume there are similar requirements for gymnastics or bar work, such as when performing muscle-ups. This Gymreapers chalk has proven to perform exceptionally well in both areas. Even in sweaty, humid outdoor workouts, it allows me to maintain a solid grip and control the kettlebell, while also allowing for smooth rotation of the handle in my grip. This has improved my confidence with heavier kettlebells while minimizing calluses. The chalk bricks are solid enough to use by rubbing directly on your hands or the handles; however, I prefer to break the bricks up into a bucket (I use an airtight bucket designed for pet food to keep the chalk dry because I store it outside). The bricks can be broken into a smooth powder with a little effort, creating a nice soft powder to apply easily. I break and crush all the bricks, then just stick my hands in, grab some, rub my hand together and clap a few times to shake off the excess. As the summer arrived and the temperature and humidity rose, this chalk has been proven to reliably provide me with the grip I need to continue my kettlebell workouts. Highly recommended.

Great chalk for arm wrestling without making a mess!

Feels good and smooth in your hands and very grip worthy while being easy to use. Feels more athleticaly professional than performing on your own if you dont have gloves or staps. Would buy again, thank you.

This magnesium powder is fantastic for improving grip during intense workouts. It's easy to apply, lasts a long time, and really makes a difference when lifting heavy weights and performing difficult movements. Perfect for those looking to improve their performance and safety at the gym. Highly recommended.

Great chalk blocks, don't disintegrate stay together allowing to use a pinch at a time

Excellent product with good price

Not my favorite, breaks easily and makes a mess:(

Good stuff

What can I say? It's chalk and it works well for what I use it for (trap bar deadlifting). Provides excellent grip and has a cool skull on the package. What more do you want? Recommended.

Lots more than I expected. Very light

Great chalk so far. We are using it for gymnastics and seems to work well.

It does the job. The chalk holds on your hand but doesn't last long. For the price, it's great
