Is there any way to prevent Veins from popping out during/after working out?

Question

As my interest in weight lifting has recently been sparked, I've started to notice people with a lot of muscle mass. Some have perfectly normal extremities, and some have large, thick veins sticking out - some more than others.

Is there any way to prevent these veins from popping out for me? They're quite an eyesore in my opinion, and I'd hate to have them.

Thank you very much in advance,

George

Answer 1

NO! I cant believe you are saying this! Veins are so hot! And its a sign that you are in shape and it looks good...and no I dont think there is anything you can do about it. Thanks goodness

Answer 2

It's all genetics really, and it depends on your percentage of body fat. Those body builders you see walking around who try to get themselves down to less than 10% body fat tend to have more arterial patterns than people who work out more for muscle tone and cardio. You should expect some increase in the size of your veins. The more you work out the more bloodflow your body requires but unless your looking to become mr univers or a triathlete you shouldn't stress.

Answer 3

It is normal for veins to stand out when you work out. This is because your body gets very overheated and causes them to stand out. This happens anytime you get too hot.

Answer 4

Ironically I saw on TV that before muscle competitions all the competitors eat 32 candybars and twinkies in order to make their veins bulge out better.

What you want is smooth blubber not muscles.

Answer 5

Just drink water when you see the veins pop out, its dehydration.

Answer 6

Veins looks tight dude. people think your more jacked.

Answer 7

Obtain more fat.
