That said Warpath, help me with a few myths here. I'm a pretty lean guy hovering around 6'0", I guess. So I'm a little conscious about my frame and I don't want to lose weight or appear as though I've lost weight.
If that's true, how do I counter that? Additionally, will running twice per week make that much of a difference in my physique one way or another?
Feel free to throw out any other helpful tidbits and facts that might steer me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Over a period of time you will gain lean muscle mass (not bulk). You will be replacing fat with muscle throughout your lower body. If you are losing things you do not wish to, you will have to adjust your caloric intake accordingly...more work.....more calorie burn.....more food.
BUT pay close attention to eating right, and limit the DQ Beltbusters
