Inside our bodies are hundreds of tubes that carry blood. These tubes are called veins [靜脈]. Inside the world of bodybuilding [健美運動], the term vascularity [血管畢露] describes how many of these veins are visible — of course from the outside of the body. A bodybuilder’s vascularity is good when he has many highly visible veins. As bodybuilders prepare for bodybuilding competitions, they reduce their body fat [身體脂肪] and as body fat decreases their veins become prominent [突出].
Vascularity is best when body fat is below 10 percent. Reducing body fat takes at least a few months so this process begins long before the bodybuilding competition. As the competition date approaches, the bodybuilder has already reached his goal of very low body fat, often below 5 percent, but on the day of a competition he must go even further to increase his vascularity. Let’s look at four additional ways used by bodybuilders to further increase vascularity just hours and minutes before they compete.
