It is also important to consider that exercise can involve sweating, friction and movement, which can interfere with the tattoo's healing process. That's why it's wise to take a few days of rest before exercising again. In addition, it's important to listen to your tattoo artist's instructions. Some tattoo artists may have specific recommendations about when you can start exercising again, depending on the size and location of the tattoo.Important: If you are unsure, it's always best to contact your tattoo artist for advice.
