Sorry guys but I had to post this no matter how stupid you think I am or regarless to whether your ganna flame me or not. But, I read something a long time ago from one of the muscle mags and i remember an article about a glass of wine a day or every other day helps bring out that veiny look. Now today I was at the gym and some guy was ripped with veins poppin out of his ass. He said the wine made a big difference. Does anyone actually do this?!!!!! It sounds like bullshit to me!!! So I flame my own question!!!     | ||

It brings out the veins in my penis. Oh...wait, that's because the women get better looking. Seriously, I haven't heard that, but I also wouldn't be surprised. | ||

you know what, I know that doctors have found that a glass or two of red wine per day can prevent heart disease. Which has a lot to do with clearing clogged arteries/veins....so it could be possible. Hmmmm.....don't flame yourself bro, it's not a bad question. I'd like to find out. | ||

alcohol is a vaso-dialater, thereby making your veins look more prominent. that's why a lot of people turn red when they drink. | ||

As Joe, a psychotic old employee at "Mora's Fine Wine & Spirits" in Port Jefferson once said "Don't drink the White Zin." ------------------ <\==FinaChat Now Running!==/> Finaplix Message Board http://pub24.ezboard.com/bfinaplix | ||

I thought you were gone for good man?? anyhow, here are some medical studdies for the effects of red wine onthe body.. its highly technical, but maybe some of the medically inclined bros can get something out of it http://www.vitacost.com/science/MedStudies/RedWine.html | ||

yes its been popular as a mild diuretic and vasodialator in comps for years, also glycerol has been shown to be helpful as has niacin and sun exposure / heat exposure... I found by accident that oregano extract seems to have a vascularising effect | ||

LUVS, man I'm so happy to see you. hehe all joking aside that's not a dumb question at all, a lot of guys at my gym actually have a couple glasses of red wine about half an hour before competition, it's been reported to really bring the veins out, I didn't notice anything special but they swear by it. layed ------------------ | ||

This is far from a dumb question...... Mix 50ml glycerol in 3oz warm water then add 5oz red wine (some people add creatine as well)and enjoy. Drink this the night before or in the morning and have the same concoction 1/2 hour before a photo shoot or compitition. You have to have a BF% that is less than 8 or you will not notice anything. I use this when ever I do a photo shoot - get someone to give you a rub down and you will see vains in places that you didn't think exsisted but make sure you have something for the bloodshot eyes. Give it a try....even the super models use alcohol to reduce water retention...you don't notice but most are drunk on champange when the walk the catwalk. Niacin works as well in the same way but can be dangerous....to much can make the body over heat and you break out in a rash. Not a good look. Hudson | ||

Years ago that is what we did, till we found out about sodium loading. If done rite your skin will be soo tite they will look like your veins are ready to bust out of your skin. BUT you have to be extremely lean for this to work. | ||
