    I get something like that doing standing calve raises, from the pads pushing 300lbs on my shirt into my skin. I've also gotten marks like that once when I used the sitting side lat raise machine. The pads on my shoulder biceps left marks like in the picture. At first I thought I tore a muscle but now i'm used to it and they go away in a few days.

    stretch marks

    Hi,

    I used to have pretty bad stretch marks and red scars around my belly region ever since I gave birth to my three kids.I had tried Vitamin E oil and cocoa butter which a number of people had recommended but unfortunately it didn't seem to work too well. My Doctor had even suggested that I go for a Tummy Tuck. I then recently read an article about a lady who supposedly got rid of her stretch marks using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked really well. It took a number of weeks but my stretch marks soon faded away. You can read the lady's article at the link below.

    OK, I get these VERY same things on my shoulders, both of them. First I freaked because I thought they were ugly and permanent but don't worry about it... they'll go away in a couple of days if they were anything like I had. I rubbed some cocoa butter massage lotion on my shoulders and within hours they faded. I recommend doing this before lifting regardless. Good luck.

    I'd have to agree, looks like calf raise machine blood blisters...I get them every time I do the machine...every now and again from squats as well, but those typically show up more to the center of my neck than so far forward on my shoulders....should go away quickly....

    spam, it's a wordpress blog with affiliate links that are cloaked to look like regular ones. He/she gets a commission everytime someone buys the creme. The testimonial posted is most likely BS.
