orion do you know why you get stretch marks, ive got some serious problems with them on my biceps, lats, traps but they dissapear, and front delt, chest area, they real deep ones aswell ??

growing faster than your skin can handle...use LOTS of lotion with vitamin E...they will go away eventually anyway

Damn, should i slow down on the bulking than ? cos ive been using Bio Oil which helps me out on the not so deep ones but when i get the newer ones they are normally real deep and a dark red/pink, i'll try and get some photo's to show you what i mean

and woodzy i agree theres guys in my gym that you can tell are on roids that are just tanks and they have non whatsoever, pisses me off. and damn 40kg shoulder press each arm is pre beast,

Don't slow down. That's just a part of it. Some people get them worse than others. When I was younger, they would be real deep, now when I get them, its just like on the surface of the skin. Try vitamin E like Jay said. Get some oral vit E tabs, poke it with a needle, and apply it directly to the stretch marks. Twice a day.

Should I eat before or after I run or lift? iv read eat before and let it settle for a bit but then iv also heard mash on food afterwards. Should I have a diffrent plan (eating wise) for running or lifting? I'm not speaking of doing both in one workout. I plan on running for a while and then getting a gym membership just so I know ill stick to it.

What are your goals with the running(weight loss, marathons)? What time of day will you be running?

For lifting, I eat about 2hours before the gym, have a preworkout drink 30 min before, and then start sipping a bcaa drink right when I start lifting, couple sips between sets. Right after lifting, I drink a protien shake and eat a fruit, usually a banana or two. Then 45-60 minute later, I eat a BIG meal. Like a pound of light fish, or 10-12 ounces of chicken or steak. This is also the only meal of the day where I eat any significant amount of carbs(100-150 grams).

legs back and abs today

should be fun

[OrionStang]

Why back and legs on the same day? Must not be hitting either one very hard.

[Superjay]

I usually go to the gym starving, drink a protein shake immediately after, plus SyntheSIZE, Glutemine and my liquid vitamins. then about 45-60 minutes later eat a huge meal with carbs, like OrionStang. The only think that goes into my body pre-workout are pre-workout supplements, and water. the supps come about 30 minutes prior to workout.

Mainly to loose weight. About 7pm ish but I'm pondering mornings too. I shouldn't have a gut at 21... so I'm getting off the couch and finding other things to do besides play xbox. I don't plan on body building, I just plan to be fit. Any support or tips I can get ill take. Iv never really been on a diet or understood suplements.
