Veins sticking out??

[Scowty]

what does it mean if ur veins are sticking out? personally my viens dont really stick out at all? it seems like some ppl i know that are in shape's veins stick out, but others don't, is it because they have more weight-loss and are skinnier? anyone know/

In general, vascularity is a sign of low body fat. However, I've heard of people with low bf and no vascularity, so genetics play an important role.

It can depend on many things. It can be gentic it can be due to the temperature it can just be who the person is.

I sometimes get it after using heavy weights

Vascularity will come with a low % of BF and alot of lean muscle on the body.

Genes, body fat %, lean muscle mass % and even temperature, hydration and blood pressure levels.

Blood volume has a lot to do with it. If you're well hydrated and you have good circulation, your veins will "stick out." If you're dehydrated, your veins go into hiding...just completely shrink up. Since I'm a nurse, I'm always looking at people's veins... you see these guys with these big huge veins and think how nice and easy it would be to stick them. LMAO.. we get warped minds after a while, what can I say.
