Can muscle turn into fat or fat turn into muscle? How many time
have you heard this hilarious fats and muscles myth?
Yes, this is one fats and muscles myth that will never go away. Get
this straight. Fat will never turn into muscle and muscle will
never turn into fat.
The reason is simple. Your body fats and muscles are made up of
completely different cell structure and they are so different that
they cannot be converted to each other. Your muscle is very much
alive and work very hard whereas fat just sits there doing nothing
and just plain looking ugly. How can they be the same or can be
converted to each other?
How did this fitness myth come about then? Well, let me offer some
suggestions.
When a fat person train with weights, he will build muscles and
then for his muscle definition to show, he will have to lose fat.
He will do cardio exercises and eat healthily to achieve a healthy
fat loss. When that is accomplished, he will revealed a lean
muscular body because he has already packed on some muscle mass and
have lost a substantial amount of body fat from his lose fats and
build muscles program.
So when people see his new found lean muscular body and noticed
that his body fat is now gone, some will comment that his fats has
turned into muscles. Isn't that a nonsensical comment? Not just
nonsensical, it is downright hilarious.
Now, just say that this same guy has lost his motivation to train
for whatever reasons and because he no longer wants to maintain his
lean muscular body, he naturally will lay off exercises and start
to eat unhealthily. Gradually, he will put on body fat because of
his unhealthy diet and the fact that he no longer exercise to burn
calories. Then as he put on more fat, the fat begins to cover up
his muscles and his muscles are no longer noticeable.
Ahhhh....these same people who do not know the biology of muscle
and fat will proclaim that his muscles has turned into body fat.
Well, these chaps must be magicians or how else can muscle turn
into fat or fat turn into muscle?
Why am I exposing this fat and muscle myth? Because it is funny?
Well perhaps that too. But the main reason is that this fat and
muscle myth has put alot of people away from exercising to build
muscles and continue to indulge in unhealthy eating habits by
proclaiming that there is no point building muscles because once
they stop, they will get fat. Again, this is rubbish because most
of them are fat to begin with anyway. It is just a lazy excuse not
to exercise and eat healthily.
So if you have friends who tout this fat and muscle myth to you,
send them this article. You may be doing them a great favor when
they realised the truth and head for the gym to build some muscles
and lose some body fat.
Then what about you? Are now convinced that muscle will never turn
into fat and fat into muscle? If not, write to me and tell me
why.
