That's interesting. I'm just trying to avoid bulking upper body, but I'm in real bad physical shape I've found. 2 mi walk is winding me, but I've done 6 miles this week so hoping that cardio gets easier. Inactivity / muscle loss hitting me pretty hard. Never did weight training ever. Think faster recovery time relates to lower muscle mass? Or lower muscle mass is easier to repair.. that would make sense.

It's pretty hard to grow big muscular arms without any T. In general its hard to get big bulky muscles.
The saying goes: "No one ever got huge by accident."
In general you just aren't going to bulk up without the genetics and T levels for it. You can get away with lots of leg/butt exercises to help
1) lose weight: muscle burns calories so more means you basically end up with less fat over time.
2) Tone the area..Fat looks better in the posterior chain if there is some muscle holding it into place.
3) I think its easier than intense cardio myself. You spend a lot less time "pushing" -- just right toward the end of the lifting sequence.
