Tattoos

[jsfl321]

Anybody got any good tattoos? Post them up, I'll start. Yesterday I got a bunch of outlining for a new piece on my leg.

[Squatter]

These are mine - Zack Khan on the Squat and a classic Franco Columbu on the deadlift. They are both new - done in July and August of this year.

0right shoulder. got it almost 3 years ago when I was 18


left arm. currently 1/2 of my 1/2 sleeve. saving the funds to start/finish the other half. (ignore the overweightednesss of my midsection. I wasn't training at the time of photo)

I got a few... this one on my shoudler... that i will be making an ACTUAL half sleeve at some point. (excuse the gut... id been drinking and eating all day!)



Then one on the inside of my arm... (same arm as she shoulder tat)... it means "family" you can kinda see it here...



And 2 on my back that you cant really see... got them like 7 years ago when i turned 18.... one is a cross in memory of my grandpa that died.... and the other is my zodiac sign for Libra.

p.s. sorry for the crappy pics... these are really all i could find lol.

[jsfl321]

this is my half sleeve so far

[Stevo985]

If I ever get close to the body I want I'm considering getting some sort of sleeve, or probably half sleeve.

Don't want something generic though, would have to mean something.

I don't like tattoos...

[Nyghtbringer]

This was my first tattoo (the giant one on his body) It also extends down my back, down my ribs, my armpit and shoulder area are completely black, never fails to turn heads:



My second tattoo is on my hand:



And my third tattoo is a modified version of this, a sleeve length of tribal and the heart.



The most painful area was also the area with the least ink, the palm side of my middle finger, 2 small areas for the dragon tail wrapped around my finger, hurt even worse than the armpit, it's also fading quite fast, it'll dissapear in a few years I think.

Thought this would be a cool thread to bring back.

My son passed away almost a month ago. I got this tattoo in memory of my son, Michael Nolan. The quality of the picture gives no justice to the quality of the tattoo.

Thanks Cman. I tell you what though, it was tough. A little over three hours of laying on the table, with two short breaks. There really wasn't any area that hurt anymore than another area.....It just all hurt pretty good.

I did back and triceps today. During the tricep routines, I noticed my inner arm was burning a little bit. I'm just going to take it easy on that for a little bit. I think Wednesday I'm working legs, Thursday working shoulders, and then Friday working Chest and biceps. So, I think by the time I do biceps, or even by the next time I do triceps, my arm should be healed all the way.

[Cman46290]

Yeah usually a week and a half to 2 weeks it will be perfectly good... just keep a thin layer of A&D ointment on it .... 3-4 times a day... light thin layers... rub it in well.

I got a tattoo on the inside of my arm like that.... not as big... but yeah wasnt very pleasant to have done. Still nothing hurt ad bad as the one on my shoulder.... when he got to the lines that go onto my chest and the ones on my collar bone. NOT FUN.

I've never used A&D before on any of my tattoos, but I have been keeping moisturized with non scented lotion.

Nyghtbringer, your tats looks awesome.

OfficerEaton, so sorry about your loss, but that is a beautiful tattoo. I can imagine it hurt - I have a small one on the underside of my arm as well and that was painful.

Last tattoo I got done, last August.



This will be my next one, hopefully this year.


Photos aren't great, had to grab them off Facebook!

what does it mean??

[Dangermouse]

First one is Japanese for bushido, the samurai code of honour. Second is the actual code in full, 7 symbols.

Hi Squatter!

I'm new on the board, It would seem I'm not the only one with tattoos dedicated to lifting, or Franco Columbu for that matter! Mine are like badges of honor more than anything.

Loved your Squat tattoo as well, I'm going to have the squat at some point to complete the "Big Three"






Tattoos, the problem is they are so addictive

Mine are all beach related.








My favourite pastel Beach

what made you decide to get the exact same tattoos as other people. to me that makes the tattoo less special because its a copy

Because I saw them and they are what I wanted. Plus the 2 large tattoos I seen weren't real tattoos, I wanted the real deal.

[cameren06]

I bet the tattoo artist was super pumped to do a solid black piece that large. Easy money for them, not too much detail to worry about.

Cool!!!

[Mideed]

Cool tattoos!!!! One day I'll gather up my courage and go for one as well. One day.
