Airgym Club opened in October 2024 next to Quintana metro station and was the first calisthenics gym in Madrid. Almost all training there happens on a bar or a set of rings. In the gym they use our liquid chalk and, when they go to compete, they take the tub of powder.

Grip is the first limit
In calisthenics you train with your own body weight, and almost always hanging from something: pull-ups, dead hangs, holds at the top, ring work. If your hand slips, the set is over — even if your back and arms still had a couple of reps left.
Many of Airgym's members are over 30 and had never done calisthenics before. For them, a bar that doesn't slip is what lets them focus on learning the movement.
They tried other brands first
Airgym didn't start with Araclinch. They went through other chalks until they found us, and they haven't switched since.
«We tried other brands, discovered Araclinch and we've stuck with it ever since.»
Oriol Lampreave, co-founder of Airgym Club
Liquid for everyday training
In the gym they use the 400 ml liquid chalk for three reasons: it goes a long way, it spreads evenly over the hand and it makes very little mess. In an indoor room with groups coming through all day, that matters: no cloud of dust in the air and no white trail on the floor or the bars.
It contains magnesium carbonate and rosin in an alcohol base, so it dries on the hands almost instantly and the grip lasts the whole set.
The tub, for competitions
When the team heads to a competition, they take the 1450 g tub. It's the format designed for sharing: a single container for the whole group, additive-free magnesium carbonate and the best price per gram in our range.
