I’m a fat-ish, chubby teen. And like my thighs are big and my waist very wide, and i was thinking that if you work out and you lose your fat, and you gain muscle, won’t the muscle be as large as the fat you lost? So even if you work off all your fat, you’ll still be as large as you were before because the muscle replaced the fat? So does that mean you’ll never be thinner?
Muscle is smaller per lb then fat is..
Here is a photo of 5lbs of fat next to 5 lbs of muscle..

Obviously, there’s a pretty big difference there. Not only is the muscle smaller, but the shape of it is longer and leaner then fat.
Just like everybody is different because of genetics on where they store fat, everybody is also different in how quickly they can gain muscle in certain areas. MOST women can never get bulky muscle. By most I mean like a good 98% of women. Why? There just aren’t the hormones available to build bulky muscle. Another difference between fat and muscle is that if you decide you don’t like the muscle in an area, it will shrink and go away if you quit training it. Let’s say you do abdominal exercises but even with diet you don’t lose any fat on your stomach and just gain muscle. If you think your waist is to large thanks to the overlying fat, you can stop doing the exercise and the muscle will go away in a couple of months. Too bad fat doesn’t go away as easily.. lol
The chicks from biggest loser exercised everyday, including weight training and they look much smaller then they did before..
Here’s some of the girls from it..

I want to lose fat,but not muscle.
BUUUT,I don’t want to gain muscle either.
BUT,I don’t want to be all flabby,but I don’t want to be muscular.
How?
Cut the sugar and soda’s and drink water and try to run as much as you can. If you like to swim……….swim. Those are the two best I believe. Either that or play a team sport like soccer or basketball, where there’s a lot of running involved. All the best, hope this helps a little.
In ketosis the presence of carbs are null so your body is using fat as the primary fuel (energy) source. If high protein intake is taken, would running burn fat or fat+muscle?
Try the Lil Jack workout http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKCGe2Ezris it really helps
summer is coming up and i wanna look hot in my bikini. i have one lil issue that drives me insane each summer, and actually all year round. and that is the fat/muscle or whatever you want to call it of the inner thigh. does anyone know any exercise to tone that area? it would help me feel that lil bit better.
This is my theory and this is what works for me. Everyone is different so it may need to be adjusted to your own personal needs.
Energy In/Energy Out
Food Intake: 1,200 Per Day
One Pound equals 3,500 Calories
To loose one pound per day, You need to burn your food intake plus your one pound of fat
1,200 (intake) + 3,500 (Outtake) = 4,700 Calories Burn
You must burn at least 4,700 Calories everyday to loose one pound at least. It is very easy to go up and beyond 4,700 calories each day.
Best way to do this is to track your progress on a calorie counter monitor watch. If you do it by the numbers you can loose the weight. It is just a matter of changing the way you think about weight loss.
Once you start wearing your calorie counter you can see the numbers increase and you fill find yourself doing extra things in your day, like tapping your foot while waiting at the light in your car, chewing gum, singing out loud and so on onto of your workout routines. You begin to see that everything you do in your day contributes to the overall numbers needed to loose that pound.
I, myself, have done this recently. Two weeks later, I lost one pant size and 10 pounds. And that is just my current progress. I have used this method previously after childbirth and have gone from 168 to 127 pounds with in two months.
I personally burn 1,000 calories by Walking in my community for one hour in the morning and I also burn 1,000 calories by simply using a stationary bike while playing xbox. I get so involved in playing xbox that I completely forget I am pedaling or working out. Think about it..How many hours have you spent playing video games..why not burn calories while you are doing it.

Water Intake/Less Storage
Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body’s principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 to 80 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.
Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don’t have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.

Good Food
My favorite things to eat:
Avocado Wraps
Simple: Low Carb Tortilla, Half Avocado sliced, alpha sprouts, lettuce, soy bacon…Just wrap it up and eat. You can vary the things you put inside so long as you keep it to approx 4 or 5 items. You want to make sure they are fresh, low calorie and filling. Avocado and mushrooms can replace meats in your meal and still have great taste.
Special K Cereals are fantastic. They have that sweetness that one craves and is so good for you. Calories are low. Great for even just dinner.
First thing in the morning…A Glass of Chocolate Milk. Yup!! Chocolate Milk. We all crave that “got to have” item in the morning. Milk is the best thing you can have for yourself while working out. The chocolate (and you can use Carnation Instant Milk for this but I simply use Nestle dry mix) will give you that sweet “snack” that you need. If you give your body a little bit of it and its in a control way, you will not crave sweets and junk the rest of the day.
Lean Cuisines
Fantastic food! Each meal is approx 180 t0 380 calories per box. So think about your calories. 1,200…You can still have several of these meals a day and still be under your intake requirements.
It’s all about the numbers and watching what you take in and what you burn out. And you know what..If you go over your 1,200 mark for food intake…that’s okay…you simple up your total calories burned for the day by what you took it. So long as you burn off the over all calories to be more than your food intake. Just make sure you stick too it so you can reach your weight loss goals.
Fruits and Veggies
All you want on the schedule listed below.
Bananas are my favorite. They are very filling and can make a meal all on their own.
____
Vitamins
My favorite is ONE A DAY WITH ENERGY…I am in love with this vitamin because I am just like everyone else who loves those quick fix energy drinks. But what people do not realize is that energy drinks can contain 120 to 440 calories in just ONE Can. If you think about it..That is HALF of your allowed calories for food intake. The best alternative I have found is One a day with energy vitamin. Easy to spot, it is packaged in a green label bottle. Just One vitamin a day will give you as much energy as approx. 1 1/2 cans of red bull…WITHOUT the calorie intake.
WoW..now your making progress already because you have made more room in your intake calories for actual healthy food.
_____
Soda/Carbonation
Carbonation is terrible for your system because it bloats your stomach. And when your stomach bloats, your jeans just don’t fit. You can drop one pant size simply by NOT drinking any carbonated drinks all together..Take away the bloat and you have instantly just made it one pant size lower. Besides, Sodas dehydrate you and with that One a Day Vitamin, you won’t need the Caffeine in the soda and it will also cut out those extra calories that you don’t need.
So remove that soda and the energy drinks and just think how much calories you just instantly removed from your daily intake. I normally consume what…four sodas and two energy drinks in one day…that is a total of …. 900 calories. Of what??? Nothing…Those are horrible calories and calories that can be replaced by food which will fuel your body for your day and your workouts.

Your Body
Your body is like a computer. You must program your body to do what it is suppose to do so it won’t crash and leave you with a virus. Your stomach is only the size of your fist. So think about it right now, Look at your hand and close your fist. Not very big is it. That is how much food you actually ONLY need to eat, each time you eat for every meal. If you eat anything more than that, you will stretch out your stomach which causes overeating and overweight.
What you need to do is eat every three hours, approx 5 to 7 times everyday around the same time. If you are always giving your body healthy and better food choices (the size of your fist) every three hours, your body will know you are giving it food. It will use that food properly. It will not go into starvation mode or store food away for later because it knows…it will get more in three hours. So what does your body do…it flushes everything out of your system because it doesn’t need it.. Now it knows…you wont’ forget about it and that food is on its way.

Walking Buddy
This is the best thing especially for woman. Get a walking buddy. One hour everyday. Just think about how much talking, venting and laughing two woman can do together while walking and yup, you guessed it…it just burns more calories and reduces your stress. You now are more relaxed because you can talk and free yourself of whatever is frustrating you while getting into shape.
I have a little layer of fat on my torso and legs, but underneath it there is a larger layer of rock solidness. What is this solidness, is it muscle. I can’t grab it, its rock solid, and I can flex it. What is it?
YES ITS MUSCLE
I want to know how much fat I would lose if I ran 2-3 miles every other day till November. How many pounds might I lose? & I would have a healthy diet also.
And, would I gain a lot of muscle? Would it be all in my legs, or abs & arms too? Thanks
If you keep a healthy diet, you should not lose muscle and not really gain much either.
Lets say that you weight 150 pounds and run 2.5 miles a day. Using a calories calculator, you will be burning 245 calories a day (that’s not much at all).
There is 100 days until november, so that will give you 24,500 calories lost during that period.
If you run in the fat burning zone (65% heart rate), around 50% of those calories should be fat. So you will burn 12,250 calories of fat.
1 pound of fat contains 3,500 calories, so at the end you will lose about 3.5 pounds. I know, this sounds like nothing, so if you want to burn more, you need to burn more than 245 calories a day.
At the same time, your metabolism will get faster. So I would say 4.5 pounds until november.
If you ran something like 10 miles a day (1000 calories), your body will develop more fat burning enzimes and that 50% of fat from calories might go higher to 80%. Burning 1000 calories a day, 24,000 calories would turn into 5.6 pounds of fat in 24 days. Higher fat burning and faster.
I’m about 5’2 and weigh 118lbs at most. People see me as being average but the circumference of my arms are like 12 inches. I used to work out my arms years ago and I still have some muscles as well as fat built in them. I just wish I can be able to wear a tanktop or a sleeveless shirt……I’m in the late teens.
You cannot spot lose fat. Add cardio, lift more, cut calories, drink more water, and you will lose fat. Muscle burns fat, bigger muscle shows through fat, so working biceps a lot cant do anything but help. ^.-
My friend thats a girl wants to know how to lose her thigh muscle and fat. She says it has both muscle and fat and it doesn’t look good with her because she’s kinda small. So how do you lose high muscle and fat?
Quadriceps
The walking lunge is great for these muscles. You simply begin in the lunge position and carry it out in a straight line as if you were walking. This can be more work than you think and you should accomplish at least 10 lunges throughout the process.
Step-up is a simple exercise that promotes a great deal of thigh strength. You use an exercise box or bench and step up with your left foot and then rotate and repeat.
Hamstrings
Lying leg curls are one of the most effective for this muscle group. You simply lay face down on a bench with a cable cord attached to your legs to pull the weight up as you bring your legs in towards your buttocks. Slowly lower them back down and repeat in sets of 10-12 repetitions to begin.
The standing leg curl uses the cables again. Here you are standing with your feet hip width apart and you take your left foot and curl it up towards your buttocks, repeat with right leg as well.
Hip Abductors
Leg raises are best for this part of your thigh. You lay with your back flat on the ground and raise your legs high, lower them slowly back down but not so they are touching the floor, so they are about 1inch above the floor and repeat 10 times for best results.
Working out at least 4 times a week for best results, but always having a day of rest in between for your muscles to recover.
I think my arms look fat because of my muscles. I get teased a lot because of them. Can someone help me and give me advice on how to lose muscle fat?
Oh, Thank you for your suggestions, but I don’t want give money to lose the fat.
I never work out. I used to, and I stopped for a long time. What else?
I’m not sure why you would want to get rid of muscle, but I guess stop working out??
A person who is starving loses weight. Obviously the person loses a lot of fat very quickly, but everyone goes on about how if you starve your body eats your muscles. If this is so then how come people who are suffering through horrible droughts and have nothing to eat become extremely skinny but they can still walk around and do stuff, which means they still have plenty of muscle.
So does your body eat excess fat and THEN eat muscle, or does it eat mostly fat and a little muscle at the same time?
salut c’est moi!
Not sure but what I’ve heard is sugar in your body then muscles then fat then both more fat than muscles when muscles are not enough anymore. goes back to the caveman times when could spare some muscle before taping into reserve of fat. very true for women in which fat plays a more important role than in men in survival mode.
this explains why when you eat less calories than you burn – which is the only working weight loss diet -, you need to exercise weights more than cardio not only to burn calories faster but cause you need to tell your brain to live the muscles alone – cause you obviously need and use them – so that it concentrates on using your fat reserve. besides we haven’t found a trick yet to tell the brain where to get the fat so it decides on its own, getting lets say your arms and legs and not your guts while you keep working those abs for nothing.
