Stretch marks or striae appear as red or purple marks on the skin and are actually a form of scarring. They are the cause of dermal tears and may fade over time but will not completely go away without proper stretch mark treatment. These scars are due to the rapid stretching of the skin often caused by weight gain during puberty, pregnancy or muscle growth. Stretch marks can also worsen due to hormonal changes.
Stretching can be an important element to your workout routines. Keeping the muscles from being so tight can have huge benefits, and even add to your strength. More than that, it can add to your range of motion, and overall muscle health. Find out how and when to add stretching to your workout routines.
