Why Every CrossFit and Hyrox Athlete Should Be Using Liquid Chalk

Let’s talk about sweat. Not the “I’m glowing” kind. We’re talking full-send, dripping palms, slippery barbell sweat; the kind that shows up mid-WOD or halfway through a sled push and makes your grip feel like a liability.

Now picture this: You're 15 minutes into your Hyrox race, approaching the farmer’s carry. Or you're mid-way through a brutal CrossFit AMRAP, staring down your next barbell clean. Your forearms are screaming, your breath is heavy... but your grip? Solid. Unshakeable. Locked in.

Welcome to the world of liquid chalk. And if you haven’t tried it yet, we’ve got one question for you: What the hell are you waiting for?

What Is Liquid Chalk (and Why Should You Care)?

Liquid chalk is your grip’s best friend. It’s a quick-drying solution (usually alcohol-based) that coats your hands in a thin layer of magnesium carbonate; the same stuff as traditional gym chalk, but without the mess, dust clouds, or need to constantly reapply.

Once it dries (in seconds!), it gives your hands a dry, grippy texture that lets you hang on, lift more, and push harder.

Why CrossFit & Hyrox Athletes Love It

Let’s be real, CrossFit and Hyrox aren’t just workouts. They’re full-body battles. Every station, every rep, every lift demands focus, power, and above all... grip confidence. And that’s exactly what liquid chalk delivers.

Here’s how it helps:

More reps, fewer slips.

Whether it’s pull-ups, kettlebell swings, or wall balls, liquid chalk helps your hands stay dry and steady, even when your heart rate's red-lining.

Better barbell control.

Barbell cycling? Touch-and-go deadlifts? Liquid chalk gives you that locked-in feel that lets you stay in control, even as the weight climbs.

No mess = no stress.

No chalk buckets. No dusty hands. Just a clean, powerful grip that travels with youl; perfect for comps, training days, and gym floors that don’t allow powder chalk.

Built for endurance.

In CrossFit and Hyrox, you need chalk that lasts through stations, not just one lift. Liquid chalk stays put longer, so you can stay focused on pacing and pushing, not reapplying.

Want to Take It Up a Notch? Try Scented & Coloured Chalk

Yep, you read that right. At Two Pandas, we developed the world’s first  scented and coloured liquid chalk. Why? Because it’s fucking cool!

Confidence in Your Grip = Confidence in Your Performance

That moment when your grip starts to go... that’s when everything else starts to fall apart. Your clean slows down. Your wall ball crashes. Your sled drag becomes a fight for survival.

But with the right grip (a confident grip) you unlock your full potential. You stop second-guessing and start going all in.

That’s the feeling we’re here to deliver. And once you feel it, you won’t want to train without it.

It’s simple: #ChalkSmarterTrainHarder

Whether you're chasing a Hyrox PB or smashing through a CrossFit Open workout, liquid chalk is your not-so-secret weapon. It’s clean, efficient, and gives you the edge when your hands (and your head) are on the line.

So go on. Chalk up like a pro. Go hard or go home.
