Why do we get fat legs but not fat arms?
How and where your body carries weight/body fat can tell you about what's going on inside your body. Fat stored throughout the hips and thighs is a sign of estrogen dominance in men and women. This can be addressed through a few lifestyle changes. Visit my website for more info. The fitness industry is a shell game. Fitness is simple.
Why do I have a fat on my stomach, and not legs or arms? How to get rid of?
My arms have muscles that I can flex, my legs are almost all muscle (at best) and pretty muscly (most of the time), my neck is normal, and my thighs are rocks if I flex. Just my stomach (obliques and core) are fat. I am a runner (for 4 years), I have done cross-country all throughout High School, and track until senior year (and I'm training for a marathon). I am vegetarian and picky. I don't eat gelatin, ketchup, animal-rennet-made cheese, yeast, mushrooms (for animal reasons) and mayonnaise, mustard, cauliflower, pumpkin soup, peanut butter, or anything else that tastes gross to me. I do have kinda an unhealthy diet, like I eat a banana or chocolate milk for breakfast....a bag of chips, orange, and fiber one for lunch, and french fries (oven bake kind, in the microwave) and whatever else in the house I can find (which may include[in no specific order): popcorn [pop-maker, and micro], potatoes (in many forms), vegan fried rice, brown rice, white rice, bananas, ice cream, beans, tortilla soup, macaroni and cheese, pasta, spaghetti. Oh, and I stopped eating yeast 1 month ago (or anything I KNOW OF with it....DON'T tell me any more) Ketchup 2 months ago Gelatin 6 months ago Animal-made-rennet-cheese 2 years ago ( but I started eating a vegan cheese this year) Vegetarian 5 or 6 years Mushrooms never Is it because I have a diet high in starches (because that is supposed to be good for a runner, as long as they get some protein in) or is it because my training is focused on my legs and arms (because in cross, we would do core, but I ALWAYS dreaded getting on the ground or sitting down to exercise, I just can't do that)? Or is it just genetics and life sucks, and blah!???? (a little bit pessimistic, sorry) Thanks to anyone who puts thought into answering this!
All the fat goes to my legs but not my arms?
Try walking at least a mile everyday. Get up and walk around the house as well. Get a job that requires you to be mobile. I am certain that it is a difficult problem for you to deal with. I am sure you know how to loose the weight, it is simply a matter of it being difficult for you to do so. My struggle is with nicotine, I cannot quit smoking, non smokers are often times very non understanding of this. Walking will help though. You don't have to speed walk, just go for a walk in the out doors somewhere and enjoy the fresh air every day.

How to gain weight on your legs and arms?
Step 1 Eat five or more meals throughout the day. For example, have breakfast, a large morning snack, lunch, dinner and a bedtime snack. Choose foods that are high in calories and healthy fat such as avocados, peanut butter, nuts and granola. Step 2 Add toppings and extras to your food to boost calories, which will increase fat throughout your entire body, including your arms and legs. For example, put dried milk in soups, butter on your potatoes and cheese on your eggs and casseroles. Step 3 Drink caloric beverages rather than just water. Consume six or more glasses of calorie-containing drinks like low-fat milk or juice every day. Step 4 Do 20 minutes of strength training three days a week. Exercise helps stimulate your appetite, encouraging you to eat more. It also increases your thirst so you can add more calories through caloric beverages. Choose exercises that specifically target the arms such as dumbbell presses, triceps kickbacks, barbell jammers and pushups. Work the legs with lunges, squats, step-ups, lateral shuffles and calf raises. Tip Eat bigger portions than you normally do to boost weight gain in your arms and legs. For example, have three eggs rather than two for breakfast or two sandwiches for lunch rather than one.
