    Avoiding stretch marks.

    Hi all. When I last trained seriously I gained a total of around 4 stone in weight. Not all muscle but not too much fat.
    The downside was that just under the top front of my arms I was seemingly ripping out of my skin. I got quite bad stretch marks, that are still visible today (from over 10 yrs ago).
    Is there a way of lessening the chances of getting more, or making the ones I have worse? People are amazed when I show them, and usually reply with 'why did you do that to yourself'
    I was originally very skinny, weighing just over 11 stone at 6'1. My max weight when training went to 15 stone 2lb.
    Cheers.

    They make cream marketed for women try them. Stretch marks are somewhat genetic i believe. I put on about 20 lbs of muscle ( alitttle fat ) in about a month and got no stretch marks. Have buddies that get them constantly the marks just keep stretching. Some people think of them a badges of honor.

    Can you name a band that went further ?

    Just curious..The Beatles are well known for their influence in rock music, but can you name a band that ventured further from their original genre than The Fab Four did with this tune ?
    For best answer, include something that demonstrates their normal work.
