How do you get veiny arms?

[BayAreaBB]

Stress or heat for me. I turn into a roadmap with any temp. over 70f

I've noticed that too. When it's cold my veins barely show.

[slick1235676]

My veins are out a lot when I'm working out, running, or doing anything cardiovascular for me for some reason, or after I drink a lot of water.

[vcmethod]

Tighten a belt around your jugular. Trust me, it works.

haha

[King Alex]

I've noticed that too. When it's cold my veins barely show.

thats because when its hot your blood flow is increased making your veins pop out more, and on the opposite end when its cold your blood flow slows down making your veins less visible

[mc21]

low bf%, genetics, and hydration

Yeah there are two processes.

When you are hot its Vaso-Dilation
When you are cold its Vaso-Constriction

[T0PD0G]

It's in your...

Body-fat percentage

and...

Genetics.

What this guy said.

Also some NO supplement might help increasing veins?

Finally, someone said it. Eat 2 kilos of NOxplode. You will have the hardest erection of your life Use it wisely.

Its a mixture of:

Heat
Hydration
Pump
Genetics
Bodyfat
RBC

etc etc

Easiest way to make veins more prominent??
Get bigger as bigger muscles need bigger blood vessels to pump more blood, simple as that.

[elmstreet]

its probly because you gained muscle and it pushed them out further and you lowered your BF %...

It's genetics, muscl mass/BF, and water retention that = veins... + a pump and there ya go.

i think your right i never had any sign of them but when i had lost some weight they were more visible on my hands not like other people but visible

[hockey1234]

Pretty much self explanatory.

[J-Cubed]

Vascularity depends on primarily
1. Genetics
2. Low-Bodyfat

[CornXSkull]

I'm 6.4% body fat, and my veins suck. Must be genetics, idk.

[V1sual B1nary]

Just something not mentioned.

My bodyfat is according to some test thing near enough 30% and i have some vascularity in my forearms.

I use hand grippers alot and fist pressups (pressups on your knuckles), seems to build up your forearm well to increase the size and veins in the forearm.

Hope that helps.

Haha, Made me laugh

[trini_bankai]

after hard physical activity i tend to see mine..maybe its from the pump?

lol

[tylersexsmith]

i saw one of the articles on the supersite saying that every once in a while you can do vascularity sets, which is where you take extremely light weight and bust out a set of 80-100, this does nothing in terms of size or strength, but it causes the area to need much more blood, and will increase cappillary density. it will give u more veins in the area that is worked, basically. but u would still need lower bf% for them to show. and whether they look good or not is pretty much genetics

[pb123456789]

Don't breath when you do exercises.

[IronSOman]

Oooooo I love these threads!

[leviruth10]

I wish

its from low BF% and sometimes even genetics can give you a bit advantage on them being visible

AND, I think it also viscosity...umm...idk, I think the blood that rushes for a pump may also enlarge them

not saying its all body fat % because i bulk up about 25 ponds every winter an thats when im most vascular an i think i have very thick skin i also think it might be the pumps you get and how much blood you force through the muscle while training it like for say i hit chest an ill have a few big vains in the upper pec an some little ones that run everywere but when my pump is gone there gone i think its all force of blood

[xhuliio]

Low body fat and bigger muscle. When your muscle grows it pushes the veins out. Thick skin doesnt help, so no low sodium intake. also Cardiovascular exercises . Fishoil and nuts will help you alot too.

I havent actually worked out since getting out of the army besides teaching martial arts. along with a broken foot, dislocated left elbow and then a torn pec minor and delt.

now a guy in the gym said do wrist curls. take a small wait on a curl bar so a bar and 5 on each and wrist curl it for 12 reps and add 5 more each time and do 5 sets. Ive done it for 3 days/times and I can see mine now. I can see the dark green ones all the time now, so I think it works.

also, flexing your forarms for 5~10 secs for about a min will show you where they are, they do this in the hospital when you give blood, also using a hand ball or grips and hand strengthening devise will help.

most climbers dont diet or train they just climb and do grip strength stuff.

[muffiinmatt]

Gentics I would say because no matter what BF% I'm at my arms are always veiny when I'm warm

Just noticed u bumped an old thread

took me a long time. But heavy weights!!

If you don't eat for about 2 weeks and drink loads of water they will be gigantic. But be careful, when you start eating again try to avoid high fat, carb, sugar, salt, and calorie foods. Foods like carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce are good. Your body fat percentage will drop fast too. I do it all the time. Longest I've gone without eating was 5 weeks and my veins were gigantic.
