    stretch marks ****in hate them

    before i started working out 2 years ago i was a toothpick. Since ive started to workout ive obviously grown in the past years and now i have fuc@#$ stretch marks around my shoulders and biceps. Should i think of this as a good thing or bad? They might be just because of the massive pumps we get at the gym. What do you guys think. Is there any creams or anything to heal these marks..(im sure im not alone on this one)

    well i am a pretty big SOB, and I only have some minnor marks in the arm pit area. As much as I have grown, im sure if I ever shrink they will appear. Imo you get them from growing,then shrinking somewhat.

    I started getting strectch marks as soon as I started to grow. I still have them and they really havent' gotten any better. At the same time, I really havent' tried to treat them in any way. I have them on my bi's, near my front delts and even some tears on my lats.

    stretch marks

    thats true im sort of proud of the stretch marks cuz it means i grew but still everyone who sees them is like "ill that ****s nasty bro" you know what i mean .... i guess the best way to go would be a tan.

    My friend's sister used cocoa butter when she was pregnant to treat stretch marks. Not the manliest stuff around, but if you're really concerned, I guess it's worth trying.

    They are indeed battle scars, ones that aren't attractive. Two options:

    1) Get a tan, whitey . It really does the best job of all the things you can do.
    2) Preparation H. Does a good job minimizing scars, lots have had good results.
