I don't know. I would try but the thing is, at these hours the gym is filled with people, and I only hacve the gym as a place to get shirtless and lay down on the sun. The beach is too far from here for that.

How to Safely Get Vitamin D From The Sun
Regular sun exposure is the most natural way to get enough vitamin D, but too much sunlight comes with health risks. This article explains how to safely get vitamin D from the sun.

Expose Your Skin Around Midday
Midday, especially during summer, is the best time to get sunlight.

At noon, the sun is at its highest point, and its UVB rays are most intense. That means you need less time in the sun to make sufficient vitamin D (5Trusted Source).
Many studies also show that the body is most efficient at making vitamin D at noon (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source).
For example, in the UK, 13 minutes of midday sunlight exposure during summer three times per week is enough to maintain healthy levels among Caucasian adults (5Trusted Source).
Another study found that 30 minutes of midday summer sun exposure in Oslo, Norway was equivalent to consuming 10,000–20,000 IU of vitamin D (8Trusted Source).
The commonly recommended daily dose of vitamin D is 600 IU (15 mcg) (3Trusted Source).
Not only is getting vitamin D around midday more efficient, but it might also be safer than getting sun later in the day. One study found that afternoon sun exposure may increase the risk of dangerous skin cancers (9Trusted Source).

What about the studies that claim that vitamin D synthesis is not blocked by sunscreen and that this is a myth?
Your body is more effecient at making vitamin d in the noon time than in the morning or after 4 pm.

Yeah but sunscreens wise... show me some evidence that proves using sunscreen can lead to a vitamin D deficit.Your body is more effecient at making vitamin d in the noon time than in the morning or after 4 pm.

I get that sunscreen blocks it but where is the evidence that proves using it actually leads to a vitamin D deficit.
Because if you use sunscreen, but you get less dose but still enough, and you are safer from melanomas and so on, then why would you not use sunscreen.
I'm sure i have read it before many times that sunscreen blocks vitamin d production in the skin, for now i have this:
Sunscreen photoprotection and vitamin D status
Global concern about vitamin D deficiency has fuelled debates on photoprotection and the importance of solar exposure to meet vitamin D requirements.To review the published evidence to reach a consensus on the influence of photoprotection by sunscreens ...

Also, you can apply sunscreen in your face only and let the other wid body parts uncovered, i believe the face is a sensitive part for uv radiation unlike the wider parts of the body like the back, chest and legs.

Will a Shower After Sunbathing Wash Away Vitamin D?
Although some websites express concern that taking a shower after sunbathing will wash off all the vitamin D formed by the skin, this appears unlikely.

Sunscreen use for daily and recreational photoprotection does not compromise vitamin D synthesis, even when applied under optimal conditions.
So basically you can use sunscreen. Then where does this "don't use sunscreen" saying comes from? is just another repeated myth.
Yes, it seems there is not enough evidence that sunscreen block vitamin d, it may affect it and it may not.

The effect of sunscreen on vitamin D: a review - PubMed
There is little evidence that sunscreen decreases 25(OH)D concentration when used in real-life settings, suggesting that concerns about vitamin D should not negate skin cancer prevention advice. However, there have been no trials of the high-SPF sunscreens that are now widely recommended. What's...

So where does this anti sunscreen thing comes from?
Probably some old research or myth.
Does sunscreen compromise vitamin D levels? Maybe not
Sunscreen can reduce the sun's adverse effects, but there are concerns that it might inhibit the body's production of vitamin D. In a new study, however, investigators recorded an increase of vitamin D in participants during a week of cloudless weather, with very high UV index, even when...

I think if sunscreen doesn't block vitamin d you should use a natural sunscreen anyway like zinc oxide, most sunscreens have endocrine disruptor chemicals.
