Need Advice on Stretch Marks

[DavidSonic]

Hi,

I am new to this site and I really like it. I have a question... I started lifting weights last year and I use some supplements like protein shakes... I've noticed stretch marks in my upper arms close to the chest and in my upper thighs.

How do you prevent them? How to minimize them?

Thanks,

David

I HAVE HEARD THAT VITAMIN E OIL (APPLIED TO SKIN) WORKS WONDERS FOR STRECTH MARKS... I HAVE NEVER TRIED IT BUT I KNOW SOME PREGNANT WOMEN WHO HAVE AND PRAISE THAT STUFF....HOPE THIS HELPS BRO.

vitamin E helps, but they are probably not going to disappear, sorry

strech marks are symbols of hard work (or gear)
wear them proud

im very prone to stretch marks, my skin is really sensitive, cocoa butter helped a little to stop more marks from forming for me, but a good tan will make them less obvious (they turn more of a white color and fade a bit)

I found that cocoa butter really helped me alot. Ive been getting them on my arms and chest for awhile but since I started using cocoa butter no new ones have appeared.
