It's not about the visuality, I have a horrible flow of blood, it hurts when I wake up from having slept and limbs have been without blood for a long time. I only work out now for my health and my health sucks ^^

Sas. Are you drinking enough water? 12 cups of filtered water per day? (coffee and other drinks don't count)
Are you eating enough fat? 0.5 grams fat per 1 lbs of your bodyweight daily is minimum for optimum hormonal balance etc.
You taking fish oil? Unless you eat a lot of fatty fish, fish oil really helps with soreness.
Are you getting enough vitamins? May I recommend a powerful multi like Orange Triad?
Are you eating 6 servings of green veggies daily?
Are you taking any drugs or pills? You should NOT.
Do you drink or smoke? You should NOT.
Do you get enough sleep? 8 hours is minimum.

If you do the stuff above there is no chance in hell your health can be poor. No chance in hell bro. None.

take care of yourself man, waking up with sore muscles is a very bad sign. Please take care.

hay kusok i was reading your post and noticed that you said " coffee and other drinks dont count" not a big deal and im no expert but i have been reading up on some of these facts lately. It appears its a common misconception that water is the only drink that counts as part of your water intake, sorry i cant give you a link it was in a book by Dr Ben Goldachre ( there is a section dispelling some of the health myths out there ) . Basically although it probably is better to drink a cup of water rather than coffee, you will still pretty much be getting the same amount of water. Little fact for you there. always worth doing a bit of research yourself so dont take my word for it . :wink:

there are some really good supplements like NO-Explode and Nitro-Tech Hard Core. Pretty much any suppliment with Nitric Oxide as a primary ingredient.

Definitely ^^^

But while coffee has as much water as umm... WATER (lol) it has properties that dehydrate you... It's easier to simply drink a couple of cups of water at every meal. I see too many people drinking a couple of glasses of milk, juice, coffee, beer... soft drinks... or some other beverage, and then being 100% confident that they are properly hydrated... which isn't the case at all.

Bingo.... Did you know that one of the best things for blood flow increase is THC? the problem is that most smokers have higher body fat. A stoner with less than 10% body fat would be a vien riddled beast :lol:

you might want to buy yourself a new matrass because that might be the problem

tru dat ^^^ lol

But also, Sas, I almost forgot. Make sure you get your macros in order: (complete protein - high - about 1 gram per 1 lbs of your bodyweight, and fat about 0.5 grams per 1 lbs of your body weight. The rest should be carbs)
People experiencing your issues often don't have enough protein or fat or carbs in their diet.
And don't over-train! How many days a week you work-out? I hope it isn't 6 or 7...

lol why would you want to have more vascularity? Are you going to enter a bodybuilding comp?

You need to have a low body fat percentage and be pretty dehydrated

You could try taking supps like Arginine which increase blood flow to the muscles, its popular in alot of pre workout supplements
it could make your veins pop more after a workout

There is Dbol, a popular steroid which makes your veins pop out and look very thick, but you dont wont go there

right now its about 3-4
I really havent calculated my intake but i do eat varied food and usually only food thats good for the body so I doubt its the diet.
And the matrass should not be a problem, doesnt mather how i am positioned when i sleep, still not getting enough blood out there and I wake up all tense and hurting
