    Var only cycle: question on vacularity

    I am planning on running a var only cycle here soon. One of my goals with it is increased vascularity, and i have read much information and threads of those that have used, that it is in fact very good for that. My question is this. Would it then be considered a vasodialator or is there some other property to var that increases vacularity? Reason I ask is that I am also on a very minimal amount of high blood pressure medicine. I know that products like nitric are vasodialators so they would actually help in lowering bp since they are "dilating" or relaxing and opening up your veins/arteries. Just wondering if that would be the same for the var. I know that it is very common for bp to go up while on most gear, just was curious if var was one of them and why.

    ANAVAR gives the physique are harder appearance and when you lean veins are more noticable.

    no it's not a vasodialator like nitroglycerin. It can increase vascularity by increasing lean muscle mass and decreasing fat. It is also a DHT which means it can not convert to estrogen and it, like most DHTs, will inhibit AI activity which decreases estrogen. Less estrogen means less fat deposits and water retention giving a more lean look, vascular look. When people say it increases vascularity they are referring to the look one can achieve while on it, that is you can have less fat so you can see your viens popping out. nitroglycerin will actually cause a increase in the diameter of your viens and arteries so blood can flow better.

    I hope this helps.

    I agree with this but my veins are much thicker and pumped when I am on gear vs off gear, regardless of bf%. So, there must be another mechanism by which it effects vascularity.

    It's not an appearance, there really is more vascularity.

    maybe because steroids increase red blood cells, increasing the amount of blood. also increased aggression whilst training raises heart beat, increasing the amount of blood flown through your body...?
