i know you're older and i'll respect as being such, but don't talk down to anyone. Danny...it's Danny...not son. You though, you can call me Daniel.

you posted directly under me so anyone can logically assume you were talking to me. no one is getting excited that they need calming down so it would be great if you can release your paranoia we're not a pack of werewolves here waiting for you to mess up so we can have you for dinner.

With his little moral of the topic statement. That's fine though, i'm good if he is, I don't hate, sheet we are both from SoCal. Stretch mark discussion should not be so heated nor too looked into. Lostboyrufio just put the hammer down on all of theories...LOL! Mike Tyson is still a bum though...peace all

I'm cool with you bro, but you are wrong about so called my so called "cheap shots", check my history, I am helpful and courteous to all who are respectful of me.
My behavior might get caught up when people sling mud as I sling it back, thats the way it works.

S'all good as you are a SoCal Brotherin

The idea of retaliation or trying to get someone back for saying or doing something to you seems kind of silly. Our whole society is caught up on revenge and returning whatever someone does to us. Would it really be so hard to just keep on moving and look past insults rather than acknowledging them and deciding to engage in some sort of battle.

What if we as a people could genuinely just get over being made fun of or cut down and move on as if it never happened. No retaliation, no revenge, just keep on moving. It isn't really that hard. I am not sure what sort of problem or emotion is in the human psyche that makes us feel like it is necessary to have the last word or get someone back. I guess so many people just get defensive way too easy due to some sort of inferiority complex. They actually let other people, who are out of their control, get under their own skin. Letting that person actually evoke an undesirable emotion is giving them control. Just something to think about.

PS... I do think Mike used to lift. I am not sure about all this stretch mark stuff but I think he lifted his fair share of weights. Probably was doing some olympic lifts or something along those lines.

wnxmaximus, what do you mean? like powercleans and stuff like that

[wnxmaximus]

Cleans, jerks, snatches, things of that nature. Anything that would make him stronger, more agile, and more flexible.

"Bodybulding" routines arent all that practical as far as sports go. Very few athletes would benefit from calf presses, or bicep curls, or isolated trap movements, those exercises, for all intensive purposes, are useless. They might change your physical appearance but powerlifting type lifts, like i listed above (also squats) can actually increase an athletes ability to do almost anything. Olympic lifts won't really get you bulky or have bulging muscles but it will increase your functional strength a lot. It will also help improve cardiovascular functions and such. Point is, you train what you want to improve. A runner would never need to bench press, and probably never would, just like a linemen would benefit greatly from it. A boxer needs to be explosive, agile, and have great endurance. Strength is great, but being quicker and more explosive can win over strength. So I would suggest olympic lifting as a great supplement to a boxers lifestyle. Seeing as it wont add a lot of unwanted weight, it will improve your quickness and explosiveness, and also get you in better shape.

EDIT: if you are interested in what a life of olympic lifting will do, as far as phsyical changes go, then there are a few things that develop better than others. Your traps tend to get pretty sweet looking, seeing as they are used in both olympic lifts extensively. They normally have relative big legs and shoulders also look great. Arms and chest normally look lacking though, but they dont need much arm or chest strength in their lifts, so that makes sense.

EDIT II: In case no one noticed, i am an advocated of olympic lifting and the benefits it can provide for you.

Can we all please get back to the topic here......I really dislike when these threads get freak in personal!
As for the stretch marks.....Who knows for sure, I don't and to just come up with an answer would be just speculation.
