Who else has got them, and what have you guys done to try and slow down the progress of new marks??

I got them on my biceps, inner front delts, and inner thighs. It sucks, chicks don't dig it... but I wouldn't give back the gains I made!!

Ya... same. Not on the thighs though. The one's on the delts are likely from the fatty pecs (bitch tits) like mine. If that's the case, reduce your BF%. I've heard of using coco butter, but i'd rather lose 'em naturally. How old are you? They'll likely go away with time.

Sup,

1) To loose those damn stretch marks try an over the counter skin cream. Try getting the one that is all natural and has vitamins and stuff. Get the type of cream that has wierd stuff like avacado, honey, cocoa butter, aloe vera, pumpkin pulp, and other stuff...
Apply 3-4 times a day on places that need it.

Good luck man,

Hindustan

p.s.
Side note: I can totally relate. I have stretch marks on my biceps, shoulders, deltoids, and HUGE marks on my chest. If you look at my chest, it looks like some animal took its claws and and ran it from one side of my chest all the way to the oher. Gross! ;< But its slowly improving

I've read there's no way to get rid of these completely unless you have them surgically removed. However, I've also read that you can lessen the unsightly appearance by doing what the others said...rub different creams/lotions on them.

Brotha - I feel your pain - As a mother of four, I have LOTS of experience in this department. The good news is that the bright redness will fade with time and they will become white and less noticeable - get a good tan and you can barely see them. The bad news is THERE IS NO LOTION, NO CREAM, NO TOPICAL ANYTHING THAT WILL MAKE THEM GO AWAY. Sorr, that's just the way it is!

O no...the dreaded topic of stretch marks....I agree with BKM....and, once ya got 'em, that's it..only thing u can do really is hide 'em or blend 'em in....like tanning helps me......some bastards are lucky and their skin has great elasticity, so, when it is stretched and retracts, there are no marks at all.....genetics and good luck.....
