How long did you take off of training after getting your ink? more or less than a week?

i got a tat on the inside of my forearm on the other side of my wrist and one on my left pec, and i waited 2 days before working out, but u jus gotta put alot of vitamin a & d lotion on it and bandage it up so no sweat gets in there and when u get hit so it doesnt scab up and fall off. u dont need a whole week IMO, but it depends how fast u heal...

planning on getting one.

I plan on not sparring until it is totally healed... i am curious how long before sweating and moving and whatnot to not disturb it so it settles and heals properly.

i sparred within a week and got contact in my pec and my tat still looks new. u jus gotta cover it up and load it up wit vitamin a and d lotion and keep it from getting scratched and stuff. they tell u at the parlor not to spar for 3 days but u can still workout the next day as long as its covered. and DEFINITELY keep it out of the sun completely for 10 days...

Would it be better to wait until im in good shape(six pack and such) then to get one now? I want to get some done on my abs chest and arms
