Is this gonna bulk up my legs?

[Anonymous]

I'm a girl. for a disease I gained 15 kg in 3months. I need to lose it really fast!

So if I don’t eat any protein at all. Only soft carbs because I have to because of that disease.and then If I also climb up&down stairs(double stairs actually) for 2 hrs daily for 3months.whats gonna happened to my legs? R they gonna bulk up? Get big? Or just lean muscle? Or what?

PS: before this I did the stair climbing for 1andhalf hour each week for 2 years, just to stay in shape. I didn’t know about the bulking up thing in the beginning ! I feel like my legs are getting bulky,strong and kinda hard.they aren't soft anymore! I don't want my legs to get any bigger but I have to lose weight fast!

Theres no fast healthy way to lose weight-- so forget about it.. take it slow..

about your legs .. offcourse its gonna get more musculed..

If you wnat to lose weight and not gain much muscle just do cardio , or go for long walks..Also go on a healthy diet ( key word is healthy)

Also cardio will increase your metabolism ( meaning you'll lose weight more quickly)

Also if you been sick its a good idea to take some vitamins pills... and I'm talking about vitamines..no pills for gettig fit no pills that claim that will make wonders.. just vitamines..centrum is kind good.. don't know if exists in you country..

also ill repreat again do not try to lose weigh fast .. its unhealthy and will leave marks all around in your body , also wghen you stop losing weigth and return to normal you'll win weigth just as fast as you lost..

How fats shoudl you go.. well 1 kilo a week is the biggest amount of weigth you should lose..

Another importnat thing..losing fat doenst mean losing weight... muscles are way more heavier than fat so as you workout ull gain some muscle... the importnat is to lose fat so check your BMI and organize your loss of fat trought there not by checking your weight..

"I need to lose it really fast!"

Then you're not losing it in a healthy way. Just be steady about it.

"So if I don't eat any protein at all"

Then your body will basically destroy itself. You must have protein to keep your muscular structure. If you choose to avoid protein for several months, then you will lose a significant amount of your muscle mass (which will decrease your weight, but will also make you weak and frail). Do NOT ignore protein.

"Are they gonna bulk up?"

If you ignore protein, you basically won't have any legs left. You will lose muscle mass, and your fat will probably still be intact because more muscle burns more calories.

If you do eat protein like you should, then this mostly depends on how you do stairs. If you do high resistance steps (on a machine) or climb up large steps, you will put on a bit more bulk muscle than you would at a low resistance, but you will also not lose as much fat.

You don't have to lose weight fast. Like noctum said, there is not fast healthy way to lose weight. Also, there's nothing wrong with lean muscled legs.

you're just getting over an illness, worry about that first before being concerned about yourw eight

Having strong legs isn't ugly in my opinion :). If you want to keep from working them too much in proportion to the rest of your body, you should try aerobics, yoga, pilates, or some kind of combined workout. A number of my female friends use p90x videos to work out and they love it. It's a whole body workout that burns calories and tones muscle all over so that might be what you're looking for. Good luck

Do you hv any idea how can I lose the muscle I hv already gained?

[wilcou]

You need to do aerobic exercise, like cardio. Low intensity for long periods of time. Think running, swimming, biking, aerobics etc. In order to lose fat, you need to be burning more calories than you are taking in (eating) each day.
