stretch marks

[reddohc]

i have stretch marks on the front of my armpit and the back. biggests one are where the pec connects to the delt.. this means im getting bigger correct?
but i wonder why they are only appearing there

Its jsut how it is there are topical treatments for them. I have found that a product sold in Canada called bio-oil is very effective on them.

you can actually use Retin-A on stretch marks which is typically used for acne

Yes this works great. It also bleaches out the stretch marks to where you can hardly tell they are there.

Another reason for being prone to getting stretch marks is a deficiency of the mineral Zinc.

Be sure to take a multi-vitamin along with a Zinc supplemental everyday and this should stop or at the very least slow down the occurances of stretch marks.

Hope this helps you out some.

for some reason I get my stretchmarks when coming off cycle, in pct usually and after... wierd.

same place also, chest to armpit, now they are starting to go out on the inner bicep too...

do stretch marks mean your muscles are getting to big to quickly for your skin to keep up or you are losing fat??

I can say for sure its not because you are losing fat. I vote for the former.

Do light stretches for the chest and shoulders after every workout and rub in some bio oil or johnson baby oil with vitamin e. Haven't heard the Retin-A method, cool, think I'll give that a go.

this is 100% true... my girl is 5' 2" 110 lbs and she had my 10 lb son with not one strech mark(she was 165 when she gave birth) and used cocoa butter thruout the whole pregnancy....very beneficial imo...but if you already have them thers not a whole lot you can do about it. cocoa butter is preventative maitnence.
