Exactly what do you mean by 'torn apart?' As in, you're growing so fast that the muscle is tearing through and splitting the skin apart or what? Are you sure it's not just a stretch mark?

You know what's strange? My quads are what have grown the most on my body since I've started lifting, yet I have no stretch marks. Perhaps fat was slowly being burned by new muscle and after that it didn't add very much to the size. But I swear my legs are inches bigger...

I like the stretch marks, It gives me a sense of accomplishment...And after all who is gonna make fun of you for having stretch marks on your biceps...I could see if they were because of a fat stomach...They are because you are growing! Don't worry about it.
