I m really out of shape. I want to stretch really good but i can barely reach my foot when i stretch. What is a good way to stretch your whole body and how. How many times should a do it a day?
Answer:
stretch thoroughly after a nice session of cardio when the muscles, tendons and ligaments are warm and pliable. stretch out the calves first, then hamstrings and finally the quadriceps in that order. no real trick to stretching the upper body except to make sure the muscles are warmed up properly.
i work at a gym and some of the personal trainers where i work do stretching sessions in addition to personal training . . . basically, you lay down on something like a massage table and they actually stretch you (30-minute sessions where i work)maybe that would be a good option until you've gotten in a little better shape and have more flexibility to stretch on your own

Stretch marks??
I have stretch marks on my hips and I am getting ones on my stomach but they appear to be green. Does that mean that they are forming now? I am not heavyset. I am 5'3" and weigh 120 pounds. I have been trying to lose weight but I kinda backfired =p how can I help them go away and prevent them from coming back? I am going to Aruba on May 23rd. Can they be gone by then? thank you =D
Answer:
Try Cocoa Butter or a cream made to remove it like this one http://www.stretch-mark.net
Are you really flexible? There is a correlation between hypermobility (being really flexible in your joints) and stretch marks.A good sports medicine or preventive medicine doctor should know more about this.
There is a lot of stretch mark treatment available on the market these days. Some treatments are more effective in fading or even eliminating stretch marks, but the success of the treatment depends on a few different things. First of all is the color and age of the stretch marks. If they have faded to a flesh color they are much harder to heal. Second of all, ethnicity and heredity play a role in which creams, oils and other products or equipment will succeed in healing stretch marks. The cheapest stretch mark treatment available is creams made especially for stretch marks. The most effective creams contain ingredients such as cocoa butter, lanolin and wheat germ oil. These creams actually heal and rebuild the damaged skin. While they may not be able to completely eliminate stretch marks, they may at least make the stretch marks fade to a barely visible scar.

Stretch marks?!?!?!?
i am 14 years old and i an't fat..and i got stretch marks all up my legs and thighs!
what is going ona nd how to i get rid of them?
Answer:
Use Jergen's Skin Firming moisturizerIt will help clear them up in about 4 weeks
well you can never get rid of them but yes, you can lighten them up by using a good moisturizer. The one that has helped me for past 10 years is Palmers Cocoa Butter Lotion. I swear by it. But which ever kind u like just make sure its cocoa butter.
Stretch marks can be found on anybody just like cellulite can. You don't have to be fat to suffer! Use cocoa butter to soften them and if you really want to a self tanning cream will help camouflage too!
Two of the main reasons stretch marks may appear is from skin tightness and rapid growth or tragedy. Nowadays there are some incredible products that can actually make your skin more stretchable, and prevent or eliminate stretch marks altogether. This is especially helpful for women, since they tend to be more self conscious about their body, even to the point of becoming depressed at personal flaws. A large percentage of pregnant women get stretch marks on their stomach, and more than 75% of women develop stretch marks around the waist, stomach, upper legs, butt and breast during pregnancy.

Stress=bad skin! How to fix?
I usually have very good skin, but since i've started uni its been going nuts on me.! I know i am very very stressed and i believe this is why my skin is going crazy. Im drinking lots of water, and i wash my face regularly.. There's nothing different in my routine..
Is there anything i should be eating, drinking or using to help get my skin back to normal?
Answer:
You need to buy some anti bacteria bath soap or if u are playing too much in the beach (this cause u to have a bad skin) u need to use your sunscreen before going to the beach.
It's your diet too. When I started uni, I was too busy to cook and ate junk. Talk about a brakeout!
Try vitamin A, my brother has had the same prob too, just like you he washes his face regularly, stick to your routine of skin care.=) eating healthier and having enough sleep will do you wonders as well.
First you need to control the stress, you could take a vitamin B supplement there is one by Blackmores called Executive B+. That will help your body deal with the stress of uni. Second, try not to touch your face. I know when I'm stressed I rub my temples and that's where I break out. Keep antibacterial wipes in your bag, wipe your hands, your mobile or anything else that could touch your face.
I hope this helps, Good luck at uni!

Strech Mark solution?
I'm 21 years old. I do suicidegirl shoots. I really can't have them. I have been slacking but now I am back to working out and eating sensible meals.
Is there a way to make the few I have look less noticed? The camera is real good at catching bad spots!
Answer:
im trying this stuff from avon that is supposed to firm up your skin. it is for cellulite %26 stretch marks. i only got it 2 dyas ago but youre supposed to see results in 2 weeks. its under $10 so you may wanna try it. good luck!
avon has a really good stretch mark cream that works for me, you should check it out.
cocoa butter helps, and you can always just use a little foundation to minimize the appearance.
Not sure how to remove or help conceal them without makeup ... not sure for most men but it's really not a turn off for me ... I check out suicide girls all the time whats your name on the website!
Mederma, or any other scar/stretchmark cream/gel thing
mederma, so good
Use Vitamin E Oil
Tatoo them into a tiger strips!
i don't know what these shoots are but you can decrease the appearance by using mederma which you can buy at the pharmacy. a MD can prescribe Retin-A which will help fade the stretch marks. a dermatologist/plastic surgeon could laser the areas and fade the marks very well. depends on how much $$ you would like to spend to get rid of the problem.
bio - oil is really good. it doesn't get rid of them, because basically, nothing does. But it fades them really well, that there hardly noticeable!
