Do you use chalk?
The barbell I use is a really old rusted piece of junk my dads friend gave me. The rust on it has kind of smoothed out the knurling and its starting to slide around my back and in my hands when I sweat. Anybody know an easy way to remove the rust without messing up the barbell? Currently cant get a new one.

If it is a junk bar, spray on some lime away, scrub with brush, rinse off, and apply a thin coat of oil. Some may also suggest covering the bar in baking soda to neutralize the acid. I never did this on my cheap bar though, and it was fine. Eventually got rid of the bar.
Thanks, will try this
Yea, 3in1, metal brush. The longer you let it rust the more fucked up and smooth it’ll be so, pitter patter. If it’s way too smooth to be usable, hockey tape can make it grippy again.
