Low BF% and I think it is due to genetics as well.

I've read that its partially low bf% but also a matter of sodium in the blood or something. I'm not so sure.

Sodium causes water retention in the body. The more sodium you have the more overall body fluid you have (intracellular and extracellular) therefore causing the veins to look like snakes just beneath the skin. It may look good, but 10 bucks says they suffer from hypertension.

Some of these catz vascularity comes from the demand of more blood and oxygen to their muscles. When they are training their blood pressure is elevated causing vascularity to maximize the flow of oxygen to the muscle. The bigger/more dense your muscles get the bigger your veins get.

Just to be flippant, I'm sure there are drugs you can take to make blood vessels really pop out and be visible.

chris:i think the drug is nitric oxide,i think ronnie coleman has brought a product out that is supposed to give you an incredible pump

I think some of these guys might be shooting up the old jungle juice as i heard one of them talking about it in the gym,sad as they are about 19 years old and arent really gaining muscle at a good rate,i watch them train and they do the same thing all the time,dumbbell curls,barbell curls bench press and military press.Then they say i gotta get pumped for when i go out and get wasted tonight Theres also one guy who after 3 sets of bench or whatever he goes out for a cig break i couldnt understand this man,i asked and he said "you dont have to be totally boring to get muscles"i was amused at him as he is brainless!Anyway i dunno what causes this veiney type look but i think it has something to do with b/f as it seems to be the most ripped ones that have them!thanks for posting guys
