and I don't mean slightly bumpy small groupings... I mean volcanoes on my back, on my forearms, and even one on the top of my head that just exploded (the anti bacterial is still drying on my hands as I type)...
Does anyone else have any advise? Is there a body wash that you can recommend or something to do prior...
I usually shower before I go to the gym and make sure I'm dry, and when I say I sweat I mean you could ring out my shirt and fill a kiddie pool so I don't think I prevent myself from sweating...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated cause having to sleep last night with a swollen knob on the top of my head was not fun...

You have Volcanoes on you're back?! Call the Volcanologist.
No seriously...everytime you to the gym you should always bring a clean towel (but i know even in the gym, towels are available for hire), so every time you use the bench put that towel on you're back to protect you're skin againts any kind of bacteria...b/c you don't know how many strangers are using that bench (esp those who have skin disease), and if you going to take a bath always use a scentless soap (like Ivory soap).
