My primary forms of training are powerlifting and rowing. In both of these, having a strong, dry grip is crucial for success. I've been using this chalk for 3 years now, and I'll always have extra blocks on hand just to make sure I don't go without it.

FYI, I train 5-6x per week, and a 1-lb package typically lasts over a year.

There is not too much one can critique concerning hand chalk, but this product performs exactly as it is supposed to. It keeps my hands dry, thus non-slippery, while I work out with free weights. I am very pleased with the chalk.

Product it as good as advertised. I use it for training a hs football team and they love it when they perform their olympic lifts. I imagine it would be just as good for climbing and gymnastics also. Price is nice compared to other stuff out there that is "imported from Italy" and charges six bucks for a 2 oz block.

I primarily strength train with heavy emphasis on the powerlifting movements using a barbell; squats, deadlifts, presses, etc. Chalk is a must have item especially when the weight is heavy, but that's basically a truism. I would like to add, however, that I train three times a week, chalk up for basically every lift I do in the gym, and a 1 lb. box of this stuff literally lasts me around 4 years.

I lift weights. In the summer, it gets hot in south Mississippi, and you WILL sweat. Chalk is needed for gripping. This is a good product at a good price.
