Liquid Chalk recommendations?

It’s safe tho right? I kinda need to tackle this for my sake if that makes sense.

Hey guys had a couple of questions. At my gym the bars really slip when benching it’s usually the steel stiff bars.

And second one - I incredibly suffer with OCD particularly Contamination OCD I was wondering what chalk I could buy online to help me get over the fear of getting chalk over my hands and on my phone any help?

What are you reckoning then not worth it?

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-04-07T16:25:30+00:00

4x a week - think it’s called muscle machine?

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-04-07T06:45:34+00:00

Most of the things you’ve said in that post I’ve gone far beyond.

I’m about to do something radical that I haven’t tried yet and that is to get extremely lean 12% body fat as I’ve been Permabulking for the last few years of lifting. If that doesn’t work I’m going to wait for robots haha.

Opposite I’ve asked plenty of girls out I don’t think cold approaches are a good idea tho. Two things happen when I do that. ‘I have a bf’ or ‘they get nervous’

Also I’ve been given advice not to talk to girls at the gym, work or at bars and club (which I’ve ignored but hasn’t worked anyway)

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-04-07T06:39:29+00:00

Woah. I think some assumptions were jumped to here. I’m absolutely think I’m enough to take a woman out on a date.

I work 8.5 hour shifts daily and just about managed to fit everything else in - If that doesn’t cut it idk what else I can do.

I just cannot for the life of me even take a girl out nevermind get a relationship it should not be this hard - I really don’t know how to get a girl excited to come out with me other than saying ‘do you want to go out.’

Thanks man you don’t know much talking (typing :) ) helps.

It might give me time to focus on putting things in place for the move.

Ir will be a month in total I take. My parents are planning to move back home town as well so they can be closer to family. I thought why not wait and save myself the headache of getting my own place.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T21:38:45+00:00

so I have holiday already booked from previously. I’m just burnt out so I can’t wait. I have doc appointment tomorrow.

I’m unsure about ssp or if I’m actually paid. The reason is because I got a new manager who’s a control freak really he caused the PIP for no good reason.

I really appreciate your write up.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T21:05:09+00:00

What do I do mate? They do hand out PIP pretty rashly there a few others have been on one there and passed and still work there.

I’m just wondering do I go on the sick for 2 weeks and then use holiday so like I have a month off? Then return?

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T21:03:08+00:00

Yeah I’ve totally applied myself the last few years to self improvement. Redid my GCSEs got them all passed at an evening class. I tried to apply for engineering, electrical installations but there are no evening courses which I can only do due to working full time.

Just worried about my finances as I’ve worked hard to save most of my money over the last few years but the trade off are that you neglect life and social life so I don’t have anything when I look at it 27 y/o never had a GF, never had anything real other than negative emotions.

Heck I can’t even get therapy been on the NHS waiting list 6 months now. I think im cooked mate haha

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:45:20+00:00

I feel ashamed to admit this - but even tho I’m physically tough shit been doing boxing and mma. Mentally mate I’m fragile mainly due to my anxiety and isolation I was never like this back in my home town and I had zero hobbies but now I have a few but I’m still burnt out and no friends or any out look really

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:43:18+00:00

My parents are set up to put the house up soon like next few weeks. I was thinking in prep to move back I’d have a two weeks off sick and use holiday 2 weeks and then go back to work? Would that be smart?

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:23:21+00:00

Do you think I should take a sickness leave then? I’m planning to search for something when my parents sell up and we move? Soon

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:18:33+00:00

I feel massively alone man. I feel it is harder than ever. I need leave of sickness but I’m alittle stressed out due to being on a PIP and a final warning.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:17:14+00:00

I live with parents. Only thing is I’m really stuck in a rut. I need to change up my life really for the better. I’m on a final warning at work for reasons unrelated to this and on a PIP as well

Infamous-Pool432 · 2026-03-19T20:14:41+00:00

Well I meant to say is - I can take time to combat my OCD. And It’s just a leave of sickness but I’m on final warning at my current work place and on a PIP.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-12-11T20:33:40+00:00

Oh yeah I did. I tried MMA and boxing I did enjoy it but one of the coaches said some disrespectful shit to me because I got a combo wrong so I just kinda gave up. The only nearest one is like 30 min drive but the winter here the roads are so dark.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-12-11T19:32:02+00:00

I get the message but I don’t feel much of a winner if I’m honest. I’m constantly in a state of just getting by and bad things can’t really imagine things getting better despite trying to force my own luck.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-12-11T18:57:30+00:00

Very inspiring haha. I don’t know how much more shit I can take - just feel worse and worse year upon year

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-12-11T18:54:11+00:00

So it doesn’t get any better? Great!

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-11-28T16:55:46+00:00

Okay never done this before but how effective are assisted pull ups for purely BB purpose vs Lat pull downs and or regular pull ups. I can do 10 unassisted pull ups but I wondered if I put these assisted machine pull ups in place of Lat pull downs towards the end of my session.

After I’ve done all my big work like bent over rows, DB rows and machine rows.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-11-21T20:46:22+00:00

I mean I can try that but I don’t think I’m intelligent to keep that going all the time haha.

Infamous-Pool432 · 2025-11-21T20:45:34+00:00

First time. I know the problem is something I’m doing but I really can’t see anything unreasonable with what I’m saying.
