Loose skin

ad

Hi all! Been a little bit at the end of a cycle pre contest BF is about 5-7%. However having loose skin issue. What tricks if any do you guys know to tighten the skin precontest?

Never really heard of competitors with loose skin. See it alot on people who were really fat and dropped a bunch of weight. Not much they can do other than surgery if it is really bad or bothersome. Not aware of any creams or anything that can be used to tighten up skin. Maybe you are just dehydrated and need to fill back out a bit. Maybe try carb loading if you have been on low carbs.

Not gonna lie. I’m shocked at your answer Mak cause you have been around a while. Haven’t you seen like most of those older guys who do bodybuilding have the stretched out skin. Due to the days of natty bulking and then cutting old school style.

I often see pros advertising some gels. But realistically can’t even imagine how this could possible help but maybe an option to check out

I actually kinda shocked that people don’t have tons of tricks for this considering there are a lot of old time and current competitors on this site.

Myself or guys around me that compete do not have this problem, we do everything possible to stay in decent condition off season so the skin does have a chance to stretch
We normally starting dieting 16 weeks out and do that very, therefore avoiding this issue.
Think only rapid weight loss can cause this.
I would have suggested something but never came accross this problem, don’t want to write some sh*t that I’m not confident about

have tons of tricks

Funny though

I’ve always seen this as a open forum to learn and grow. I’ve never met people on here not willing to share.

try to get dry! But ~5% BF and a thick skin sounds curious to me.

Fold it in half.

On a real note what KMC said and plastic surgery for your last resort
