I’m ok with losing muscle as I was quite strong back in highschool and do not want the bulky look any more. I would like to loose muscle and fat. The running surface makes little difference on my shins…I can try the walk-jog-sprint stuff but even just walking gets rather painful on my shins after time so I’m not sure if that will help. I will be continuing my cardio on a machine in the morning at the gym, I will also attempt walk-jog-sprint but if that fails my question is if running for 10-15 min at a time is even burning enough fat to be worth the pain it causes? > [@FS: Sabres flyers tix](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-sabres-flyers-tix/39725/14): > > I’m ok with losing muscle as I was quite strong back in highschool and do not want the bulky look any more.
