    No.

    Just no.

    You're not getting bulky while eating at a deficit doing 30DS.

    You're safe.

    it's water repairing the muscle after your exercise, it will pass once your body adjusts to the new exercise.

    Squats made my legs as lean and tight as they are today. They were "puffy" before I began squatting, lunging, etc.
