Slim Skate
Wednesday, September 1st, 2010activities to slim down legs, not bulk them up?
will inline skating slim them down or bulk them up? any other activites that will work. should i workout everyday or every other day? because i've been working out and i've been gaining weight instead.
Inline skating will tone and build some muscle on your legs. If you do it a lot..yes it can bulk them up. Just do it on occasion. However, building muscle is not a bad thing...after all it will increase your metabolism and reduce your fat. You would have to do it every day to build signifcant mass and bulk.
Working out really depends on your body composition. In the past have you maintained your weight with only 2 days of cardio? If so, then you metabolic rate is high. If not, you would need to do more cardio.
I would suggest doing stationary bike and maybe some treadmill run/walk. This will burn calories and tone your legs up about 4-5 times a week. It won't require as much power as stair stepping or maybe even intense inline skating which would build more muscle. Try to do longer duration and moderate tension. Good luck.
