Grip training
Work for the hands and forearms: hangs, holds, pinches, and carries.

If the grip is the limit, train it on purpose. Timed hangs on a bar, farmer carries, plate pinches, and thick-bar holds are the usual tools. Chalk lets you train the grip instead of training the sweat.
Liquid chalk is convenient for a set of hangs in a gym that bans loose chalk. Wash it off afterward. Chronic dryness splits skin, and split skin ends the training block faster than a weak grip does.
