Question: Are elliptical machines good for losing fat on your thighs and calves and not gaining muscle?

I& #039;m not allowed to go outside and have a long distance run in my family, but my calves and thighs are getting kinda big because I NEVER exercised. So are elliptical machines good for slimming down your calves and thighs? Does it make them bigger because it builds up your muscle?

Why can 't you go outside? O_o It will help lose a little bit of the fat but you can bet on being sore AND it 's going to be hard to get used to doing because if you have as little exercise as you say then you 'll be out of shape. Don 't push yourself too hard. And it will also build your muscle, but once you can poke your thigh and feel hardness, not flab, then you know to stop because you 're starting to build muscle. Jesus loves you!
