Stress Rashes/Bumps are a thing...

So today I was looking at T's arms and the bumps that have been on his arms for what seems like forever are gone.  After seeing them disappear after T having them for so long I did some research.  Come to find out that stress rashes/bumps are a thing.  TaeKwonDo Sparring had been causing him to be so overly stressed that he had these white raised bumps all over his arms.  Since quitting the sport they have all cleared up.  He is loving what he is doing now so the stress is completely off.  He's also since been working on not picking the skin on his fingers so much.  A bad habit that he had gotten into more than likely from all the stress that he was under from TaeKwoDo Sparring.  Amazing how making the shift to Weightlifting has made such a difference in our sons health.  We love seeing him so incredibly happy.   TaeKwonDo Sparring wasn't all for nothing though.  The mobility he has from having done the sport for so long has set him up, in a huge way, for success with Weightlifting.  The difference is night and day.  T has had huge gains since switching.  The picture below is just a small taste of the difference right now.  It won't take long for this to change.  He's gaining more muscle with each workout.
