rip recommends chalking up your hands at the start of every workout, even if you're not deadlifting.
does anybody here do that?

Yup. It's normal in my powerlifting gym. Chalk up for every lift.

i can see how it would help for bench and press, but why for squats?
>>40810753
Yes. Certainly for any pulling movements.
Its nice to have dry hands for everything though.

Holding on to 400lbs+ is important. Don't want that fucker sliding off your back.
>>40810773
So you don't slip.
I only use chalk for >90% for squats though, also chalk my back.
