## Description

desertcart.com : SPRI Chalk Block, 2oz. (4 Pack) for Gymnastics, Rock Climbing, Bouldering, Weight-Lifting, : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Best chalk brick I've used - see the review - These are a pretty solid piece of chalk, and extremely fine. While I've seen a couple of very small edges chip off, it's less than other brands that I've tried. That said, it's quite easy to get enough chalk off within a few seconds, and easily enough to coat my hands without going after it time after time. Thickness is somewhere near 1.5" and well suited for anything in a workout routine except for maybe climbing. I hold onto kettlebells and dumbbells up to 50# and don't need to recoat partway through 3-4 sets. Other knurled products like maces and clubs will remove some of this off your hands and coat the knurling, but only to the extent where it's visible, not where it affects the knurling. I've been using this multiple times a day now for a couple of months and haven't even begun to work my way through the first brick... probably last me a year or so and I can see the entire package lasting 3-5 years. Overall, this is a VERY good value for the money. As for the fairer gender and people who might have softer hands, don't be afraid that this is gritty. It's about the consistency of talcum powder but in a brick format. It's very comfortable to use without giving up any convenience or effectiveness. I can't attest to what happens if you drop it but while it would probably dust some and make a few more corner chips, I don't think it would break. However, as I use this around the house and don't want chalk to end up in other places, my brick is kept in a Rubbermaid container with a snap on lid.
Review: ASMR Spri Snappy & Soft - Purchased for ASMR. SPRI Gym Chalk is great for ASMR. Let me talk about the packaging first. SPRI wrapped each block in white paper, what we normally receive, but went a step farther and wrapped every block with an additional level of protection, plastic wrap as well. Every block was perfect, no broken blocks, or even a dusty box. All intact, chef's kiss on the packing. I consider this a soft block but snappy. After crush it leaves pieces but it was quite easy to powder down with my hands. No burden on the hands to break up, 🙌 and very inexpensive. The texture and consistency was soft but snappy. I loved it. This chalk seems like it should cost more due to its presentation in packaging and perfect texture. If you like soft, snappy chalk this is for you. I'm buying again. 🩷🖤🩷🖤

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does it taste like?**
A: There’s a chemical taste. Burned my tongue. Couldn’t eat the rest of the evening. And the morning after.  It was textured which would have been nice except my tongue got super hot and heavy while chewing it . Try the one in the pink and white packaging. Much better. No chemical taste.

**Q: What ingredients where used to make this chalk?**
A: Ingredients: Magnesium Carbonate, Ethyl Alcohol Solvent, and Rosin. Important question honestly, because unfortunately, it's not "CHALK", it's not that simple and chalk isn't naturally liquid. People who respond to important questions in a smart-aleck way are literally causing the decline in our basic industry standards.

**Q: how many lifts will this last me?**
A: A box of eight identical blocks from a different manufacturer has lasted me nearly three years.  I use it only when I deadlift heavy (without straps, hook grip, around 475 lbs now; started using it at around 275), which was twice a week for approximately the first 15 months I used the chalk, and then once a week since.  For the past six months I've also used it for trap bar Farmer's carries of ~ 425 pounds once or twice a week.  I'm beginning to use it once a week for heavy presses. Your mileage will vary, obviously, based on which lifts you use it for.    I keep it crumbled in a Ziploc bag so it's not open in a bowl or otherwise exposed to humidity.  Bottom line is that eight blocks of this stuff will last you a long while if you lift.

**Q: I know this gymchalk is only sold in the US. But what country was it made in?**
A: China.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality

This is gym chalk. It does what gym chalk is supposed to do. No issues with slippage during use. Make sure to store it in a dry place as moisture will ruin it. Good chalk for a decent price.
