transdermal dry time

If this is in the wrong section, please move it. But, how long does every one wait to shower/sweat after their application of transdermals? I try to wait the whole 12 hours or so, but today for instance, I have to go to the gym 3 hours after application, so I was going to apply 1 squirt again after the gym, then apply another squirt at usual time. Or should I not worry about it and just wait to apply again at usual time because 3 hours is enough?

Also, how long does everyone wait to put on clothes after applying BDC's tgel(or homebrew)? With avant labs ONE, it dried in 5 minutes so I could put a shirt on fairly quick, but with BDC's mix, it takes forever to dry, even rubbing it in. And my skin is always kind of "wet", is this from the addition of DMSO?
Thanks fellaz.
 
3 hours is fine for sweating/showering. Most of it should've absorbed by then.

As for the dry time, 15 minutes is usually how much time I give it. It's not really still wet, just a bit sticky. Should be fine though.

If you rub very hard it should be less time that the above!
 
The problem with rubbing that hard, is then I start sweating like a horse. Then the fear of it not being absorbed or being rubbed off by clothes ceases, but then the fear of sweating it off arises.
 
i do have to admit that applying becoming a hassle now. my first ever run, i really didnt mind (such a new thing for me back then) but now, the process of applying, being strict about washing your hands (contacts, pets...), even the minimal drying time...all kinda bugging me but hey, even though im complaining here....i wouldnt think twice bout moving to oral 1-test or 4ad
 
Disposable latex type Medical/surgical gloves work, no? I'd think that would take the hassle/worry away as far as pets and family members.
 
Don't worry about applying after the gym. Sweating is a good thing. there is 2 ways to get stuff through your skin. Through the SC and through the pores. The gel goes through the SC .... SO when you sweat you are actually opening your pores and the 1-test is getting in. DO you find that when you sweat ther application area burn.... There you go.. So sweat like a pig and get big.... Hope that helps.. Talk to ya...
 
Sweat like a pig and get big! I love it Curt, I'm adding it to my sig right now bro!

there you go. i was reading down this thread to see this and of course, curt2go gets on it. i changed my application time from after my late morning workout to right when i wake up. And when im drenching it out during the lifts, definetely feel a burn where as before, ive never really have unless i applied to close to armpits or crotch.
 
My goodness. That never occurred to me Curt. I always thought the opposite when I felt the burn while sweating. Thanks for setting me straight!

Tomorrow I'm going to completely miss an application, so I'm a little disgruntled about that. :( :mad:
