Abs without vascularity....

[coltrane]

So i've been hitting abs just about everyday now for a few months.  High rep (sets of 100 crunches).  My BF is also very low.

I've noticed that I am starting to get some vascularity in my abs which I hate. 

Just wondering if anyone thinks doing some weighted ab workouts (LOWER reps) which be the better route.

I guess i'm thinking higher reps, etc will produce vascularity and lower reps (with weight) won't.

Thoughts?

You need to go it right

Cswol doesn't train abs so I don't either

Great website.

Great website.

 

So you want vascularity on the upper abs, but not your lower?

Are you 16yrs old, possibly younger?

If that's a chick I'm going to throw up.

[coltrane]

No.  I've noticed i'm starting to get vascularity on my abs in general, which I don't want. 

Just wondering if high rep is the cause, and maybe a lower rep'd scheme would work better in not developing the veins.

Why? That's very fucking hawt.

Then you have to eat more. BF controls vascularity, not rep scheme.

dumbest shit i ever heard. its about diet and bf%.

BF doesn't control vascularity.  It may make it more visible, but doesn't control it.  Vascularity comes with training.  It's just "seen" with lower bf.

So you think a person that doesn't workout with low low BF will have a lot of vascularity?  I believe vascularity comes from training (for the most part).  As you train your vascular system expands to supply the muscle with O2.

So if i'm 25%bf and i train a certain way, i can have a super vascular fat belly?

Please help me understand....

I think you're confused.

BF will hide any vascularity you have in general, be it in your abs or your arms say (the muscle...  not the fat covering).   When you lower your bf, you'll see the vascularity you already have.

Your vasc will increase through your training to provide muscle with nutrients.  I'm just wondering if anyone who actually trains abs notices a difference with higher/lower rep schemes in terms of increased vascularity.

coltrane, no offence, but i doubt your in a position to educate me on abs.  

Just listen to what I tell you and hush up.
