I'm about 5'8, 11stone..... my arms are about 13inches chest about 36.... So
not that big at all, small actually... BUT I'm getting stretch marks on my
bicepts and where my arms join my chest... why?? I'm not big at all!! and
this is happening?? I assume this will get ALOT worse the bigger I get...
Is there anyway to avoid this? At present I do the pyramid workout, I do for
eg for bicepts
20kg +bar - 8 reps
22.5kg +bar - 6 reps
25kg +bar - 4 reps
22.5kg +bar - 6 reps
20kg +bar - 4 reps
Is that too much?? should I be doing a real light weight first as a warm
up?? I do no cardio before weight training but 10-15mins of cross trainer
after.
This is killing me, I enjoy the gym and would like to eventually be quite
toned and muscley, but if this is happening when I'm this small, I'm afraid
what I'll look like in a year or two..
Ps... I train whenever I can, so basically almost everyday if I have time, I
have a 3 day split
day 1 - legs, shoulders
day 2 - biceps, back
day 3 - chest, triceps..
Am I training too frequently?? Am I not giving my skin enough time to
adapt??
I apologise if this is a lame question, its just starting to really make me
paranoid and making me think twice about going to the gym
MAny thanks
