a lot of it has to do with genetics...some just have more vascularity than others! amount of muscle mass is another big factor....you just don't see dilletesque veins on a guy the size of bbd (141 @ 2%...LOL) PA | ||

Yep, Niacin & Nicotinic acid. Also before a show because blood sugars are low a BB will take some in (like a Mars bar). It causes the veins to pop out a bit more. | ||

Actually when I was at my peak and has 16% body fat at that time I had some good veins showing on my arms, forearms and delts. It is not so much to do with bodyfat but more to do with blood flow. Once you have finished your workout (take biceps for example) go and pick up the 5kg dumbbells and try hitting 100 reps, you will be pumped as a mofo and in 2-3 weeks you will start noticing the difference. ------------------ E2's Steroid Pictures Pictures of many different drugs.

Smoke a couple packs of Luckies a day.....just kidding, but nicotine works. Really, I think its genetics.....always been real vascular even without low body fat. | ||

I would have to agree that it is a combination of genetics, muscle mass and %bf (in that order). If you have veins almost showing and you are trying to get them to "pop out" the niacin / nicotinic / sugar works well - it is what we all used to do competition day - it's only a short term solution. It took me about 5 years of training before I had veins showing all of the time. | ||

I don't have veins either in my biceps or shoulders  I have been 5% bodyfat with no veins. I have decent mass and I have been training for almost 8 years. My training partner gets to 9-10% and has veins in his biceps the bastard. I have tried niacin, glycerol...and nothing Niacin sucks and I won't use it again. It basically makes you itch real bad all over and it increases blood flow so you have red blotches all over your body (flushing). Even with all these side effects niacin gave me no veins besides the little ones in my forearms. Do you guys think there is any justification to drinking wine right before stepping onstage for increased vascularity? ------------------ | ||

I never found that alcohol worked any better than sugar and when your dieted down, low blood sugar, haven't drank in a while it's a risky proposition - I've seen people that had to be helped off stage as a result. | ||

I never had veins. I tried everything!! I joined the army reserves, when I got out of basic trainning, I had veins on my shoulders, biceps, and calves. All we did was run, push-ups and sit-ups. Twice a week during the night I would sneak out and train in the weight room for 30mins. Yeah, we weren't allowed to do much. Pure hell. Without a doubt in my mind the combination of extreme cardio and some weightlifting brought my veins out. I then weigh 150 8%bf, now I weigh 185 at 5'8" 10%bf and I still have the veins. I still had them when I was 14%bf and I wasn't taking any gear. | ||

I think cardio work may help. I will be doing lots of cardio for the next 12 weeks and see if it helps. Also for this show I am aiming for 3% bodyfat by the calipers so I know the leanness wont be holding me back. ------------------ | ||

I find that by injecting high amounts of synthol into them I can really increase their vascularity!! Not for the weak at heart though!! (nice pun) oO(not to be taken seriously) ------------------ | ||

I first started experimenting with weights when I was like 14. At that point I was majorly pussy. I did like 10lb dumbbells for lots of reps for bis. I was small, like 5'7" 130. My bis probably did not measure much more than 11". One thing I can say though, is that within a few months I developed the major bi veins. I have increased alot in weight and muscle mass in the years since then, like try 30-40lbs. I would like more vascularity, like all the rest of you, but right now I am on a mass, not a cutting cycle. Not matter what I did, though, even taking months off from the gym, I never lost the large veins that run from the top of my bis to my hands. Prehaps genetics is part of the game. | ||

I find that the more water I drink, the more veins pop out. If I dont drink enough, I feel flat and deflated. | ||
