Do you have cartilage piercings and use the gym?

Being very naughty as I also posted similar on the style boards but thought I might get more answers here.
If you have piercings do you ever wallop them? How long did you wait to swim?
I want to get a double helix but worried about knocking them when I do burpees or use slam bags etc. I have a tragus piercing which has been fine but it's tucked away by my face. Any thoughts?
Thank you!!

I’ve never walloped my ears! I have a rook and conch piercing

Worry more about getting a haircut than the gym. My hairdresser caught my next forward helix last week 😧

Oh no @Dinersaur hope its OK now.
Yeah I am a bit worried about hairdressers tbh but I only go to one every 2 months or so, so its lower down my worry list! Do you guys swim? If so how long did you wait?

I waited a week last time.

I swim and gym and have never knocked my helix. I have caught it in a hairbrush though and so has my hairdresser - owwwww.

She makes me take it out when I visit now 😂
