Can stretch marks on your arms be stopped or controlled or do you need to just accept them if you want the gains?

Accept them
You got bad skin man, anyways stretch marks are very common so you shouldn't feel bad about them and they will fade away with time
how the fuck do you get stretch marks like this ?
Idk I got some on my chest
I had the same problem. Purple/red stretch marks all on my biceps/shoulder
I got rid of them almost entirely (the color anyway) by letting them get exposed to sun. I think i was outside and got a mild burn and the color went away a couple days after
get dat sun exposure
You actually lift
Why are they purple though? Mine are just like white-ish
They are new. They fade to white with age
Poor nutrition, and mineral and vitamin deficiency.
as pregnant woman the trick to avoid them is keeping the skin hydrated
This. You're not drinking enough water OP
i hear cocoa butter works
when you have them i don't think you can do much. they fade in color but the scar tissue/grooves don't disappear. dermatologists say they can fix it with lasers/peels/needles/whatever but I haven't seen convincing before and afters. and removing scar tissue is hard overall so why would this be different.
i guess you either limit your progress so you don't gain mass too quickly, while trying to stay hydrated by drinking a lot of water...
i got some when i bulked too fast as well i think. the gains and the extra fat made my thighs tear a lot and in my crotch area. so everytime i need to itch my thigh or something, my fingernails sort of get stuck in the deeper tissues. i hate it.
>Roiding for this
HAHAHAHA
unironically this
I got a stretch mark on my shoulder during mega massive noob gains and I have amssive scar on my shoulder now cause the fucking skin exploded lmao, without roids btw
100% this.
If your skin is flexible or not is genetic.
Don't mind them too much, over time they will turn more pale and be way less visible. They will never heal fully though, as scar tissue forms.
post bump
Post your delts so I can laugh at how shit and inflexible your skin is
Drinking about 2L of water a day reduced mine.
pls no, it was an anomaly, its the only streth mark thing I have that is still there becaue my skin opened up and bled lmao, fucking mega shoulder pump growth, usually I jusst get stretchmarks around my legs/crotch cause of squats lmao
>
Pls be white
As a recovering skelly, I love my stretch marks, they look cool and are a sign of progress. mine dont look like OP's pic though.
