Are Persistent Prominent Veins After Weight Lifting Normal?
I am 14 years old, I am 6.5 stones and 1m 46cm.
I am worried about veins they are popping out kind of under my forearm and on my bicep i lift weights but is it normal to get popping veins on your arms i keep hydrated and my diet is alright. but is it normal to have veins popping out when picking up weights but even after that they are still popped out and i just want to know if it is normal
thank-you

It is quite normal for the veins to get engorged during exercise.During exercise muscles contract and superficial veins become prominent.After the exercise muscles relax and blood is drained towards the heart.
