Post by: 240 is Back on September 12, 2006, 10:45:41 AM

The changes look minimal at best.  He got a tan, probably something under his arm to bring the vein out a bit more.  And the second picture iwas taken slightly closer than the first so it makes the arm look bigger.

He's pressing his arm against his side in the second pic.  Same exact arm.

Arm is identical.

Simple trick of lighting, tanning, angle of shot and pressing arms against body and do a set or two of curls to bring out vascularity..

So yes.. EVERYONE can make this kind of transformation with the right photography :)

Only difference is the arm is more pumped and vascular in second pic. The rest is made up from different color and position etc. No difference. Maybe he carb loaded for second pic? ::)

Seriously?  what would make the veins pop like that?  I have a mr Getbig contest to win and whatever magic he's using to make the change that quick, i'd love to know the trick.

website attributes it to a month of "shotgun" heavy training, and since my arms lag, i've been doing a lot of that this month.  I just wonder that since I look a lot mroe like the first pic than the second lol...

I can't see, but sometimes people will put a ping pong ball or plastic roll (like calculator tape comes on) under their armpits to help restrict the flow of blood to the arm and thus appear more vascular.

drop ur bodyfat a little and u'll see more vascularity...

i mean....every1 doesnt need to go to the same bodyfat% to look vascular

some guys have thick enough veins that push thru the bodyfat,and other guys have to keep reducing bodyfat to see their 1st vein...

if im talkin shit tellin u things u already know then just ignore me :-\

If you don't have a vein in your biceps, it's one of two things:

1) You're still carrying too much BF; or
2) You're Irish.

Maybe he worked out in that months time and took the shot with a 'pump' as opposed to not having a 'pump' in the first picture
