I wear a t shirt every day now

I'm a sweaty mother fucker and would not squat with a tank top


This.

No point on taking the chance to get injured mid way through a set.

Extremely sweaty individual checking in
That said, I find I have better grip with the barbell in low bar position with a tank/the bar touching my bare skin in parts, irrespective of the sweat, in comparison to a tee

how are the knurlings of the barbells at your gym? at the other gym i go to, the knurling is rough AF cut up my shins and sometimes my back when squatting/pulling and i don't even need chalk for squats with those bars

Depens a bit on how low you have the bar aswell.
The further down the more it will slide when shirtless.

But in general lowbar is easier to maintain in position with shirt+chalk.

i don't think i have once lifted without a shirt, nor have i ever thought or worried about a bar slipping, so this just brings all sorts of 'wtf is happening' questions in to my head
