Gym chalk policies
The written rule of a specific gym. Most large chains do not publish one.

A policy is a sentence the gym wrote down. Fitness 19's etiquette page says dry chalk is not allowed and asks members who need grip to use liquid chalk instead. Life Time's classes FAQ allows considerate chalk on weightlifting platforms only and asks members to clean it up. Anytime Fitness South Africa's club rules say only liquid chalk is to be used in its clubs. That South African page is not a rule for every Anytime Fitness on earth.
Planet Fitness's customer-service page does not name chalk. It does say no outside fitness equipment is permitted. Ask that club. Climbing gyms are more likely to write a chalk rule than big-box gyms are. A rule you cannot find is not a rule you can invent.
EVMT Liquid Chalk
EVMT liquid chalk. The title names weightlifting, gymnastics, rock climbing, and dancing.
One bullet on a later page read claimed a 10–15 second dry time. That remains the seller's claim, not a measurement from this site.
