I used to deadlift without chalk until very recently (goes without saying I don't use straps as I have a set of gonads). When I first used chalk I couldn't believe the amount it assisted my deadlifts. Especially higher rep sets. Now I'm thinking that it's just 1 step down from straps, and that I'm being slightly gay by using them.

Should it be a case of all or nothing? (gay or straight).

Hehe! I use chalk normally, and a strap now I have to deadlift one handed; I must be super gay!

What does using a suit make you? I don't like them personally, which is good because it sounds like I couln't get any gayer! My wife will be disappointed.

One of those proper sado-gays that are into having oranges stuffed in their mouths & binbags pulled over their heads while a midget takes a s**t on their chest.

nowt wrong with chalk, if you think about it its still your grip, its just stopping the moisture in your hand letting the bar slide through your fingers. just lets your grip work 2 its full potential

I know what you mean but you could say that straps are allowing your back to work to it's full potential. Isn't it better to be totally raw and constantly fighting against all the elements and obstacles that come with it? Surely if you deadlifted out in the wild you would not have access to chalk/straps/nose tork/suits etc?

What I actually mean is I believe in there being an absolute level playing field for strength measuring/competing. Isn't brute strength about doing it with the tools god gave you?
