OK. so I have started my workout using my Bowflex. It has been only 4 days. My weight has gone up!! My question is this.....do the muscles hold water when you do this type of training? I took my measurements, and they have gone down, so I feel that I am still moving in the right direction. I know that you can weigh more and be fitter and toned more. It just freaks me out to see the number on the scale keep going up.

    Also, it's only been 4 days.

    yes, i know its only been 4 days....so is that why i am retaining water? will that eventually stop happening. I know that i have not made any major muscle in this time.
