Thick Legs!?

Question

Hey im starting to run like 5 times a week, running probally 1-3 miles each time. I have seen that my legs and thighs are starting to get more toned but im worried about my legs getting thick! do your legs get like huge from running? should i start running less? or at shorter distances?

Answer 1

Toned legs are better than jiggly ones! But i think the best thing to do is run slower, at a steady pace to continue the toning, but not add bulk.

Running too fast/hard in a short time can add bulk.

good luck!

Answer 2

Running won't add bulk to you legs.  Longer runs especially will keep your legs slim.

Answer 3

no! running shorter distances at faster paces will most likely bulk them up more- i mean like sprints and stuff, long distance won't make them thick

Answer 4

you work them offf its good to run the unnecessary part melts offf
