I'm a 22 yo male, 6'2 206lbs. Fairly low body fat, so I'm trying to lose some muscle (yes ladies and gents, it's true) along with what excess blubber I do have.
I recently suffered a fairly disabling knee-injury in a skiing accident, and may be undergoing surgery in the next month or so. That being said, I had previously been putting off my 'muscle off' as I'd lined myself up for some fairly demanding military activities which I'd need my horse-strength intact for. Now, with a screwed up knee my muscle mass condition is the least of my worries, and I can drop some of the pounds I've been needing to to be a more competitive cyclist (and eventually runner - if the knee plays nice).
My physical therapist okay'd me to ride my bike - an activity I've kept on the trainer so far, as I don't feel confident enough in the condition of my knee, so my activity calories burnt are just a guess based upon perceived exertion.
