aging and vascularity
« on: April 15, 2016, 12:48:11 PM »
why is it that you get more vascular when you get older?

when I was younger and lean ~8% bf I didnt have much visible veins. Now that Im at about the same bodyfat as then they are all over. Even on my abs  ???

I only started getting more vascular in the last year or so. My veins have always been a little prominent, which is great for lab work. It is interesting how one's vascular definition comes and goes throughout the day. I suspect it has something to do with how hydrated one is. On the other hand, I am really vascular first thing in the morning.

I can no longer get a pump.  I think it has to do with my veins having been blown out too wide from all those many years of pumping.

Try Plazmosis. Skin bursting pumps, roadmap vascularity, kidney emulsifying energy.

THis is correct and as you continue to train you develop greater collatoral veins.

If there was some legal supplement I could buy that I thought would give me a pump again when I train arms or chest I would definitely try it.

It`s called"Muscle Maturity" !!

You keep training for eons and get, or stay lean and, you naturally will be more vascular.

I have always been pretty vascular so really can't say.  Some women seem to love it and some have said it looks like it hurts ha!

They are very happy when I donate blood.

That's not true, really. How can you get more vascular just because you train more? Either you're a veiny person or you're not. Training more doesn't grow more veins. If you don't have standout veins, you never will, no matter how much training. It seems like its partly genetic and partly environmental. Obviously, training can't make new veins appear, so you basically have what you have.

You have the same amount of muscles also,but they develop and get bigger as more training time is added over log periods................. same as veins my brother.

You're right.  It's called angiogenesis.

I agree with Wes based on my own experience. Training my biceps for instance after a short while of consistent training my Cephalic vein became more pronounced and as I continue to train I am adding more and more visible tributaries to my arm.

Remember when "hyperplasia" was all the rage and the buzzword in the magazines back in the 80s?  Grow new muscle cells if you train hard enough and take anabolic Mega Paks.
