I think my muscles are very big, so every time I start with training something I gain muscles so I look horrible. I am 23 years old girl and I just want to lose weight and look good not…like bodybuilder. So, can I do that just lose weight and not gaining muscles?

Therein lays an important fact- muscle is metabolically active and fat is not. Even at rest, muscle tissue requires energy. The fear of gaining muscles and getting big is a major issue among women. Building size is rarely happens by accident, so many young girls believe that losing weight and being thin is a worthy goal. The prisoner-of-war look might earn a place on the catwalks of the world, but it won't do much for your health. Get on the treadmill for 30 minutes 4 times a week
