Stretch marks :S

I've been going to the gym/boxing/rugby for the last 3 years now. On my shoulders i've started getting stretch marks.. I don't want to stop doing weights or any sports. How can I get rid or stop getting them?

 

hmm... settle it down a bit. im not saying stop working out but just go easy. ur muscles grow faster then ur skin cells so they just need a bit to catch up

 

>:'( I want to be worlds strongest man, yet these stretch marks are holding me back!!!

 

nuff said

 

......................... ^ W T F! no srsly wot shud i do cuz it looks like sum retard stabbed me on the shoulders lol

 

i had the same problem...go to walmart or something lol and get a stretch mark cream for like pregnat women it worked fore me

 

do they perm go? im from uk so no wal-mart here but i know stuff you mean. Do they only cover it up until cream washed off?

 

lulz.

But you should try that. I'm thinking it should work for you or even settle down a bit. you got more years to be the strongest man alive!!

 

I guess the best thing to do is to get some medicine from walmart. O and yes it is perm, so i heard.

 

*Walks into Walmart...* "Excuse me I'm looking for some stretch mark cream for pregnant women, by any chance do you have any?"

= FAIL

 

Stretch marks are nothing. They mean two things, you went from big to small or small to big rapidly. Just slow you workout down a little. Instead of lifting weights do some cadiovascular workouts such as jogging, jump rope or anything to get your heart pumping. Try not to only lift weight, there are other things to do to get fit.

 

Try massaging the area where the marks are

 

try vagisil. It really gets rid of the odor... or botox

 

How unpleasant.

I believe there to be some sort of clinical ('spa') treatments which intend to remove such stretch marks.

 

why spend money when u can do what i said in the first place and what decisive added too. u cant be the strongest man alive with only upper body strength. u need some lower strength to hold all those muscles up

 

That doesn't have anything to do with the stretch marks. Your muscles don't grow, they repair. Also you could use stretch cream, but chill on the amount of weight your lifting.

 

Just do cardio Vascular training for a month or so, you wont loose much muscle..

Ease down a bit.

 

Well, you should lighten up on the working out, if you built so much that you got stretch marks, then you are working too hard, be more spread with working out.

 

how old are you? you should do so much weights until your 18 just because its known to stuff up your growth and i think your body has a limit or something like that. dont over do it!

maybe you can go to a doctor and get it checked. like a physio

 

I used to get them, they go away eventually.
