Someone once told me, the more chalk, the tighter the grip. The tighter the grip, the more blisters. The more blisters, the harder the callus. The harder the callus, the less pain. So I tried letting go of the bar for a second to put on these new grips someone gave me. But in the end, I went back to using chalked hands. They're not pretty, but I still can't let go.

Tight Grip
Someone once told me, the more chalk, the tighter the grip. The tighter the grip, the more blisters. The more blisters, the harder the callus. The harder the callus, the less pain. So I tried letting go of the bar for a second to put on these new grips someone gave me. But in the end, I went back to using chalked hands. They're not pretty, but I still can't let go.
