there are different types of chalks to choose from
before you buy anything, send an email to Alan and ask him what deals APT has for you. they usually have some awesome deals so definitely ask him.

When I lift I have been using the one palm forward/one palm back grip, and alternate which is forward/back with each set. I guess I'll try both palms back at the start of the set and when my grip slips put one hand forward as suggested.

its good that you alternate between an over-under and an under-over. i made the mistake of only sticking to one. but, im changing now
yeah definitely use an over-over for as long as you can.

I was thinking about getting those hand grip squeezer thingies. Are exercising hands any different than any other muscles... How many sets/reps & days/week would I do with the hand grip squeezer thing?

dont do them.....the plate pinches, farmers walks and static holds are much better.
