text: gaining healthy weight? i've been working out regularly, switching between cardio and muscular workouts every day, and i'm definitely seeing results, the only thing is that i'm loosing more weight than i'd like. is there anything i could do or eat to make myself look like i have more fat around my arms and legs? add protein to your diet, animal or plant, you need about one gram protein for each pound of lean muscle you have, try finding a good protein shake that you could use after your workout that will get some shape onto those arms and legs.
