Brothers, I could really use some help getting some of these veins to show. My stats right now are 42 years old 5'9" 238lbs and my bf% is around 9 right now and I seriously have very little vascularity unless i'm in the gym all pumped up! Any ideas?

Increase your water intake. Mine show more when I'm well hydrated.
I'd say more than likely your way higher than 9% bf. especially at your height and weight. If you can't see your abs all the way down past your belly button then your well over 10%. If you want you can email me a pic at fit.guru@ymail.com and I can tell you by looking where you really are.
That bf percentage is from the university being weighed in the pool a month ago and I was 241 and yes I can see all my abs and my diet is spot on. I will send you a pic fit when I get home.
Not to beat the horse or anything but i've been a titch lower bf% and still not vascular. A couple guys I train with have road maps for arms and they are way higher bf% like upwards of 20%. Maybe i'm screwed from the get go or just have a thick skin?
Take 15mg of Cialis every morning lol... you'll see veins raging all day
Lol! I'm afraid I'd I did that I'd be sporting a custom towel rack all day! I'm going to try what you said about hydrating. Honestly I don't drink much water.
I only say that from when I took a friend to the hospital. She was getting an IV and was dehydrated so it was hard. The nurse looked at my arms and said "Omg I can tell someone drinks plenty of water". So this is my assumption that good hydration will yield more vissable veins. As I was drinking well over a gallon a day during that time.Originally Posted by Fuelfan
^ true when I was in the hospital this year and I had lost around 30lbs I was so dehydrated they could not find my veins it was an awful day

Hit local grocery store for a few gallons of Distilled water. Put away one jug a day and report back at the end of a week of that. :P
