When competing, bodybuilders always ensure that they have increased vascularity on the day of the contest. Bodybuilding vascularity is a condition whereby their veins on the muscles look more prominent and visible. However, female bodybuilders are not particular about this, as aesthetic body symmetry is more important. Furthermore, female with high vascularity looks quite awkward. There are a few tricks of the trade to ensure that they has vascularity on the day of the competition. One way is to lift weights to pump blood to the muscles, just before a competition. Muscle pumping will slightly increase muscle size and significantly enhance muscle vascularity. By practicing posing and flexing, they can also increase the vascularity. Alternatively, some uses posing oil such as Pro Tan Hot Stuff, a menthol-based oil to enhance vascularity while on stage.
About 4 to 6 weeks before a competition, bodybuilders will start on a special dieting program consisting of fat loading, carb loading, sodium loading and depletion to increase muscle density and increase bodybuilding vascularity. This is known as “Peaking”. Fat loading involves increasing fat oxidation to provide energy instead of using carbohydrates, thereby conserving carbohydrate and enhancing performance. High carbohydrate supplement drinks are used for carb loading. Carb loading increases carbohydrate intake to prevent the onset of muscle fatigue during the competition. The sodium loading/depleting method will initially induce the body to retain water, and then during the low sodium intake days, water will be flushed out of your system resulting in a skintight look.
