    Stretch marks

    Who has them? I have been lifting close to 30 years and don't. I'm not small either chest 50"+ and arms close to 19" pumped. I believe it's genetic. Just like women who have kids. Some get awful stretch mars others none. We have 5 kids with another on the way and my wife, 5'-2, 105 lbs to start doesn't have them and she gets up to 155 in 9 months which is almost a 40% weight gain and 50% gain around her belly.

    i have a single strechmark, on the inside of my right armpit. I think a lot of guys who run cycles get them because they bloat up/grow so fast.. where i've been steadily putting on an average of 1 1/2 lbs a month for the past two years.

    some people will get them easier then others but you will see it in more people that gain large size in short time and then lose size again after cycle...

    This is where mine are too. All from when I first started lifting at 18. Haven't done a cycle yet, but I wouldn't say I am natural either?! haha

    Totally has to do with genetics. Also has to do with how fast you put on the weight. I put on 30 lbs on my first cycle and didnt get any. Since then I have done cycles but never put on that much weight that fast and I seem to be getting more and more. I get them right inside my armpit. They are starting to extent out onto my chest now. I take hella vitamin E and even use cocoa butter
