Hey ya'll I'm 16 yrs old and im finding streach marks around my buttocks and the top of my thighs.  Also I have one on my right bicep.  Im male, and I dont take roids or anything like that.  I eat about 5000 calories a day and gain 1-2 pds of muscle a week.  Anyways, im wondering if there is any way to stop further streach marks w/o having to stop working out and getting big gains.  Like something that helps skin grow faster??  Anyways, any info would be helpful.  Also Im not fat or anything, Im not sure why Im getting them..  I've gained about 40 pounds of muscle since about last year so Im not sure.  Anyways, any info would be great! Smile

Im afraid your stuck with them, but they will go away. I also have them and Im pretty sure there from gaining weight too quickly.

so is it normal for bodybuilders and lifters to get them?  you said they will go away, do they go away all the way or are they scars?

Well I have had them and they go away sometimes with faint scars, but most of the time you can't see anything. It was when I was eating and gaining too much, so I have slowed things down a bit. Like for example I gained 10 pounds in 2 weeks once. It is normal for any athletic person to get them as my doctor says.

Thats it basically your skin is expanding because of that muscle.

Well they will but the doc said for me it would be like a year. Like when I take my shirt off its really noticable around my biceps, but it goes away. For me since I got carpal tunnel I haven't been working out so it has started to dissapear very fast.

Like theres creams and other stuff that supposedly speed up the process of the healing time, but my doc just said leave it and it will go away so...

are u sure its pure muscle ur gaining?
u could slow it down a bit by not gaining 2 pounds every week maybe then ur body could more easily adjust to the extra mass
