CHALK FIENDS!
We do not care if you use chalk during a workout or leave a few chalk handprints on the floor, however, don't abuse it.  

  • More chalk does not make you stronger or faster.
  • Too much chalk is a sure fire way to tear your hands if you have a huge kipping pull-up or butterfly pull-up.  Only chalk your hands, not the pull-up bar.
  • Chalk should not be used when doing wallballs.
  • You are not LeBron James. Pat off that excess chalk in the chalk bucket before you pull your hands out.  DO NOT REMOVE ANY CHUNKS FROM THE BUCKET.
  • Unless you have excessively sweaty hands, you should chalk only once or twice a workout. Anything more is just you finding an excuse to rest.
  • If you chalk while using a barbell, be sure to clean it with the metal brush after the workout.
