Hi. I recently got an elliptical machine, haven't used it much yet and was wondering if my legs [calves and thighs] are going to become huge after using regularly. Because when I do use it, the only part of my body that aches are my legs, particularly just above my knees.

1. Also it says I have only burned approx. 220 cals after 40 mins, that's not much is it? and it's fairly hard, I sweat alot and feel exhausted.
2. can I acheive a very slim physique?
3. if you having different settings change it to weight loss I have been doing eliptical for 2 years and haven't gain muscle just loss alot of weight.
4. To answer this all together — you will not get a big body building woman look. The real reason for this is that I do not believe that you are on streroids. See, women do not get huge when you lift weights or any of that such. Only men because we have different hormones.
   The elliptical will tone your body up, and might add some muscle, but don't be alarmed, it should not be that much. It's a good cardio machine and you should be able to lose weight. Also, you might want to mix it up and add someother things so that you can achieve your "perfect body"!!!!

   Hope this helps, and you can do it!!!!
