As I have been making progress with my training. I have found that when working my arms especially, I can see my veins all the way from my wrists to across the top of my chest, and they are very bold in the way they look.

Is this a normal thing, as its looks a bit freaky. :confused:

TIA :)
 
for people with 15%bf or under i would imagine its pretty normal, dont be scared about it, it looks good :P

im slowly getting there, the part where it goes over the front of shoulder down the top of the bicep, lower part of bicep and lower arms are all starting to bulge in the veins when worked. long way to go tho!

That's it, over the front shoulder and down the bicep. I have been losing weight as well, so its all new to me. I can see them, but they are not popping out of the skin, they are still underneath. Am glad its a normal part of the process. Ta :)

Varies from person to person. Used to train with a lad who's veins were huge. Mine are pretty well hidden unless i use AAKG, then they pop up a bit more but still nothing too crazy.

My girlfriend thinks it looks horrible lol :o

You can see a big vein in the top of my chest too, I don't really like seeing that one there though :\

my wife is the same, not a fan of the veins at all.
 
you can pretty much see my veins all the way to my shoulders, but I'm not that muscular and I also have a high bf% - around 25%. it's just that my arms are really skinny compared to the rest of me :(

I think most women love the smooth look over the very low bodyfat and vascular look.

I'd agree with that, I never drop to such low levels that they will show that much, but if I did they would be quite visible.
