Every time I go out and ride hard like a 60 mile ride the veins in my forehead really pop out and actually even look ugly. After a few days they go back. Along with the extruded veins I get a tightenest in my forehead like a headache that is waiting to happen. Any ideas?

    Cardio makes your blood vessels temporarily bigger.

    It's essentially the same thing with weight lifting. After a good arm session I'll have a good "pump" in my biceps and veins popping like crazy. Everyones veins are in different locations, some pop more than others. If there's no pain, no tenseness or tightness in that area, likely just the increased oxygen through the blood stream, it's runners "pump."
