I want to burn fat (everywhere) and gain muscle mass in my legs and thighs. My ideal body is thin arms, small shoulders, small waist (6 pck), with a big butt and thighs! But muscle of course! How can I lose the fat and gain muscle mass in only tmy butt and thighs? I know about lunges and squats. I hear doing cardio burns fat expecially if you do first thing in the morning when your bodys at a catabolic state. But is it good? I know high resistance and low reps for muscle building. What else should I do? Do I want to prevent going from an anabolic state to a catabolic state? Whey protein shakes before or after a workout? What should my 6 small meals consist of. How many calories/carbs/protein/fat. Even if you were to guess...I just need something to work with! Or should I go to for this info. Im an 18 female and weigh 160 pounds! What should I start with Aerobics with Cardio, strength training and pilates? Headaches.....Headaches!!!

Medium Resistane and highish reps are for musvle growth (8-12 reps, 3 sets), low reps and high sets (5 sets of 5 reps) generally for strength and power, and lowish resistance and higher reps for stamina.
Full squats should be working your behind pretty good. Here's a link for a more substantial list of exercises you can perform ->
Wake up, have a banana, get hydrated and head out for 20-25 minutes of HIIT, followed by a nice carb breakfast.
As for loss of fat, a disciplined diet will slowly shift it, chucking in a fairly strict cardio regime would help speed the process up. Keeping you protein intake up, some moderate weight training would at least bring the muscle you currently have out and develope it somewhat, although there are two schools of thought pretty much at loggerheads about whether you can put on any consequential muscle gains whilst cutting.
Take a whey shake immediately after a workout (I usually take my shaker into the gymn and have a shake before warm down stretches). Then get yourself home for a couple of chicken breasts, salad and nuts within 30-45 minutes of ending training.
Start most definetly with weight training and cardio (run, swim, cycle etc.). Key thing is get your nutrition right! Something like 40% protein, 30% carbs and 30% fats. Carbs in the morning, protein anytime and keep your good fat intake up.
Your going to have to wait for someone more clued up than I for a definitive answer to this one.

Do I want to prevent going from an anabolic state to a catabolic state?
