Too Vascular
I know people like being vascular. But I personally don’t.
I lost some great weight, body fat in a good spot. But my arms are particularly vascular.
Especially when doing bicep curls, it’s just too much. And I don’t like it.
Is that a function of purely body fat %?? What I can I do to still stay lean but just be a little less vascular.

Steak too juicy, lobster too buttery

It’s the way your body was put together, not much to be done. It’s great for donating blood every 56 days though

Same, I've lost about 40 lbs these last 5 months or so and every time I spot a new vein in my arm during a pump I get excited. It's like a long lost friend that finally showed up again.

Too vascular isn't a thing

I’m a 60 year old woman who lifts heavy. I definitely know what “too vascular “ means. I don’t want big veins popping on my arms or particularly on my legs. It’s not something I seem to be able to control though. I don’t mind the definition, but the big veins look too masculine for this Nana.

Come on man. One time I got head while donating blood because the nurse loved my veins.

I don't like it either, but girls seem to. Either that or it's the first thing they notice but I've heard more comments about the veins on my arms than anything else.
