If you’re not going to sweat to much (as in doing a massive session) it should be ok, but personally I’ve always waited a minimum of a week sometimes two before I get back into things.

Mostly because I want the tattoo to heal and be as crisp as possible, but also because I tend to…[Read more]

I have to wait a bit to get the first piece of the sleeve coloured then will get my artist to draw up a fo dog that…[Read more]

Being covered in sweat, shirt rubbing and possibly dropping skin everywhere (if you flake up when healing) isn’t ideal for a tattoo or for your training partners.

Take at least a week, unless you are training for competition in the near future.
A week won’t hurt your training.

It’s still fairly fresh and not cleaned 100% in this pic so will get a couple more later on:

Only another 2.5 hour session unfortunately but that will still get a heap done.

Screw the yamaha and just get the Harley!

Can’t learner restrictions otherwise I would.
Yamaha is the biggest cruiser I can get for two years.

If I had only got a bike license when I got a car license it would be all good.

It will probably be 1 – 2 sessions a month till the sleeve is done.

Then I can work on the other side and my ribs 😉

And no problems on the coward vs forward – I figured it was some sort of autocorrect magic.

Been in the IT field for the last 15 years :S

Sometimes I wish I had gone to a different field such as the fitness industry or to psychology.

It wasn’t really that painful (but so far I haven’t thought any of my tats that bad), it does come down to the individual though.

Based on GrayCatLove’s rating of 4/10 for me it was probably closer to around 3/10…[Read more]

I am booked in to have a whole sleeve done on this arm, starting on the 31st March.
It will be a fusion of three styles, Traditional Japanese koi with a twist (Can’t say much until it’s done) down to elbow, then bio-organic to the wrist. The twist is in the Koi that while it might be on a traditional background,…[Read more]

Can you open it up?
