stretch marks what the f***

[iwillsleepwhenidie]

i have ran a few cycles and the last cycle i ran i ended up with stretch marks everywhere. i have them all over my triceps, biceps, quads, and even my glutes. anyone have any idea how to keep from getting these damn things. i see huge guys all the time that dont have them do some people have a higher percentage then others to getting them. they really dont bother me that bad but if they get worse it will start bothering me.

damn that sucks, stretch marks always look like shit, but everyone will get em

[Njectable]

well atleast its probably a good sign that your getting bigger.

[iwillsleepwhenidie]

any idea how to make them go away or atleast not come about so fast and so damn big.

[stayinstacked]

alot of it depends on how fast you grow, somebody making changes faster is more likely to get them. There really isnt anything you can do about it, people will tell you to use this and that, but trust me man, if your going to get them then they're going to happen. Round here we call em' trophies

[~fuelforfire~]

go see the doc

[SwoleCat]

I'm not that "big" by any means, but I've never had ONE stretch mark in my entire life.

Some skin doesn't get them.

wtf? You make most guys look small on here, how much ****ing bigger you need to be swole, geez

[BeerBaron]

seriously, you were in the 270's not that long ago werent you swole?

[SwoleCat]

Yeah, I actually made it to 293, but I guess it's partially the "bigorexia" from the other thread.

Really, I know that I shaped my body, but I don't see myself at all like others do.

Believe that!

[iwillsleepwhenidie]

i was thinking the same!

[stunner5000pt]

well ive been working for one year and my only stretch marks are at my armpits. I guess i need to work harder for the trophies!

[stunner5000pt]

i dunno about you but i dont think ill be 'big enough'

[SwoleCat]

i was thinking the same!

Thanks for the props, , but like I said I just don't really "see it".

I see it, but my mind doesn't believe it. I think that's the issue.....

Then there is the thought of not "looking really good" ever again if you slip up, get hurt, etc., and that can really mess w/your head too. At least for me it really does....

some people do have skin wqith higher elasticity.. genetics, how fast you grow etc all play a roll..

true, stretch marks develop when your muscles (or fat) are growing bigger than what your skin's elasticity is able to hold. It usually happens when they grow in a short amount of time, because eventually, if done slowly, your skin will grow with it. There's no easy fix to stretch marks.. some try taninng, but that doesnt work because the epidermis is the part of the skin that tans, and it is also what splits.. so it's the dermis you see when you see stretch marks. I think there is some sort of lotion with a certain vitamin or something.. i dono, you'll have to look it up.. that helps keep your skin healthy (including elasticity), that may help in prevention??

SC that kind of reminds me of anorexia nervosa. They never believe they are at there level.

[Chookster]

coat yourself in some 10w30 before bed time, it works like a charm.

thats what he meant by saying he had 'bigorexia', which is now a recognised condition. its the condition of seeing yourself as inferior to your ideal, even if you have taken your body beyond extremes of your ideal.

[novicenovicen]

Huh, probably what those chicks get.
