Pros and stretch marks

[Lene28]

Are there any pros anybody has seen that does not have stretch marks? When I saw Jay Cutler in person I could not believe how big his strech marks were; it looked like a bear clawed him. In all the magazines and YouTube vids I had never noticed any stretch marks on him. Woundering if its just not possible to get that big without getting them.

Most have them. Alot of time in pictures photo shop helps minimize them. Also all the tan used in competition.

Retin A gel, bio oil, coconut oil but it is def hard to stop them especially in the initial first few courses. try and use this stuff a heap around then

Being tanned and covered in oil masks them.
Stretch marks are genetic, some people don't get them at all, and some people tear up badly. I have some pretty nasty ones around my chest/delt area, they got there when I first started lifting and got my noob gains. They have faded tremendously over time, and are barely noticeable to me now.

Time fades them a lot. The huge ones on the outer chest/delt area are always visable, but thinner ones on biceps etc fade pretty dramatically, and then you just tan and they are hard to notice. It takes a couple awhile though.


And no I don't think you can get that big without getting any, except maybe the one guy out there with Dahlsim from street fighter stretching genetics.



It might be different for Black people though, or dark skinned people in general

I think most of it is genetics, like most things in life. Some are more prone than others. I got most of mine during the first 3 years of hard training when I was 16-19 yrs old. I grew really fast and put on a lot of weight. The stretch marks on my inner thigh are the worst, and those were so bad when they were happening that my legs would actually bleed and ooze blood after doing squats!

Im like the others here, its just a mark on you that shows that you have worked hard and grown a lot. Nothing to be ashamed of.

 

[Bleed]

I got them all over my arms and underneath where the chest inserts under the front delts. Actually over my legs too. HAHA. I guess they don't bother me much. I like the idea of wearing them like you earned them!!

Leg Bleed?

Your legs were oozing? Bro, that is a serious stretch mark.

I use coco and it works so-so. Ret-A would be best, but $$$
