How can I slim down my legs and arms without gaining muscle?

tylerr! asked:

I am trying to slim down my legs and arms. I’m already kind of a muscly person and I’m sick of my arms and legs looking huge. Is there any way that I could slim the muscle down or lose the little fat that I have on them without gaining more muscle?

Exercise and Weight Loss

The fastest way to burn fat is anerobic exercise (lifting weights), but aerobic exercise will work too.

I think the best answer to your question would be Pilataes, Yoga, or a good combination of both. Don’t forget a good diet, too.

My opinion – The best looking girls in the gym who aren’t bulging with muscles and steroids are the ones who work hard in the weight room. Just because you’re doing some weight-lifting, doesn’t mean you’re gonna get super-ripped. Its the TYPE of workout you do that shapes your look.

Negative Calorie Foods

The phrase, "negative calorie food", as highlighted in negative calorie diet programs and books, usually refers to foods that allegedly require more energy to digest than they contain.
