Magnesium

Why is magnesium a game changer in your training?

"Your hands sweat, whether you like it or not. And once you start to slip, you lose control. Magnesium blocks solve that problem in one go."

✔ No more slipping hands, even during heavy lifts.
✔ Prevents your rod from slipping out of your hands and causing accidents.
✔ Your grip is no longer the weak link in your training.
✔ No expensive gadgets needed, just rub and lift.

Extra tip: Combine your magnesium grip with grips for extra support during heavy lifts.

For which sports is magnesium essential?

"Do you think magnesium is only useful for weightlifting when it comes to sports? Think again. This white powder is used in countless disciplines where grip makes the difference between winning and losing."

1. Weightlifting & Powerlifting

"With heavy squats, deadlifts, and bench presses, grip is everything. Magnesium prevents your hands from getting sweaty, allowing you to focus entirely on your strength."

- Perfect for deadlifts, snatches, and jerks.
- Prevents the rod from slipping during heavy lifts.
- Essential for both beginners and advanced lifters.

2. CrossFit & Gymnastics

CrossFit is a mix of heavy lifts, explosive movements, and bodyweight exercises. Magnesium ensures that you don't slip off the pull-up bar or drop the barbell during a heavy complex.

- Indispensable for pull-ups, toes-to-bar, and muscle-ups.
- Provides a strong grip during Olympic lifts such as cleans and snatches.
- Helps with handstand push-ups and ring exercises for extra stability.

3. Climbing & Bouldering

Every climber knows: if your grip is gone, you fall. That's why professional climbers use magnesium to keep their hands dry and grippy on the rocks or climbing wall.

- Provides more control over small grips and overhanging routes.
- Prevents your hands from slipping due to sweat.
- Perfect for indoor and outdoor climbing.

For an extra firm grip, you can use magnesium with gloves combine for heavy training.

4. Gymnastics & Calisthenics

"Magnesium is also a must for gymnastics and calisthenics. It ensures that you don't slip off the bar, allowing you to perform your tricks with full strength."

- Perfect for handstands, front levers, and bar spins.
- Provides extra control and stability.

How do you use magnesium blocks?

Using magnesium is simple, but there is a way to do it optimally.

Step 1: Break the block

Take the magnesium block, break off a piece and rub it between your hands. You want a thin, even layer of powder on your palms.

Step 2: Rub in well

Focus on the parts of your hand that make the most contact with the bar or the surface.

Step 3: Let's train

"Your grip is on point. No slips, no excuses. Time to break PRs."

NB: "Magnesium blocks are great, but if you train in a commercial gym, check if they have a ban on loose magnesium. Don't want any hassle? Then use liquid chalk."

What should you pay attention to when buying magnesium for sports?

"Not all magnesium blocks are of the same quality. Here are a few things to watch out for:"

✔ Go for 100% magnesium carbonate, without unnecessary additives.
✔ Choose a block that lasts long and does not crumble immediately.
✔ Some blocks offer an extra dry grip. Ideal for intensive sports.
