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...
