A bit of muscle but not a few pounds worth. Your body responds to the stress by filling up with intramuscular glycogen which can make you weigh more and seem bigger. Keep it up though, it's a good sign.

Awesome, thanks.

before you think that you can work out a certain part of your body and lose weight just there, you're gonna learn thats a myth. just do cardio (HIIT google it) and you will lose weight in general and eventually it will shrink on your torso.

thats good but like i mentioned in my last comment but didnt go into very much detail, HIIT (high intensity interval training) is good for losing that last bit of weight. its basically where you run really fast for a short amount of time then speed walk then go back to running. and also check out your diet and see what your daily caloric intake should be and work on that. you're not gonna lose weight if youre taking in more than youre burning (which im sure your know).

Yeah alrighty. I'll look it up. =] Thanks bud.
