Did you know that pregnancy isn’t the only cause of stretch marks? While it’s true that 90% of women will experience the development of stretch marks during their pregnancy, they’re not the only people who experience stretch marks. In fact, stretch marks can affect anybody. Adolescent growth spurts, sudden weight changes, and even gains from the gym can all stretch your skin in a way that leaves you with stretch marks.
Weightlifting and stretch marks
Whether you’re bodybuilding, or just trying to tone up a little bit, strength training does cause your skin to stretch, and could leave you with stretch marks. Whether you’re looking to prevent stretch marks, or you’ve already hit your gains and you’re looking to reduce the visibility of existing stretch marks, there are topical solutions that fulfill this need.
Areas of the body affected by stretch marks from weight training
If you’re strength training, or doing any form of exercise that will bulk you up quickly, or change the shape of your muscles, you are likely to experience some form of stretch mark. While there are no adverse health effects from stretch marks, you might be self-conscious about your appearance.
Areas of the body affected by stretch marks:
Neck
Shoulders
Biceps
Calf muscles
Thighs
Abdominal muscles
Stretch mark prevention in bodybuilding
Our stretch mark prevention oil is a must-have if you’re trying to prevent stretch marks outright. Our clinically proven formula uses Gotu Kola & Tocopherol (Vitamin E), which have been proven to significantly decrease the risk of stretch marks as well as diminish the appearance of stretch marks. It’s also important to know that it’s always more effective to prevent than to treat stretch marks, but if you are just hearing about us now, we have you covered!
