Fat ≠ Curvy.
Hi, I have a really unique name, that you're never going to find out (= I'm 5 7' Male, I weigh 155lbs..and my body fat is 5.5% i'm 21 years old 10/20/88 (yay 80's :D )
Since you've been on Yahoo Answers, what has been the?
...creepiest/weirdest thing anyone has said to you in "answers" or via "email/IM"?
3 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agohonestly speaking here...?
why on EARTH, do you people think Muscle weighs more than Fat?
IT DOESN'T!!!
now, since i'm tired of seeing MOST of you make this mistake i'm going to spend sometime and give you a free lesson so you do NOT look like complete idiots.
If you were to go to the grocery and you bought 1lb of beans and you also bought 1lb of steak
question: which one is heavier?
answer: none
follow up question:
which one is smaller in size?
answer: the steak
another follow up question:
Why?
Answer: The reason why the steak would be smaller in SIZE, than the beans is; Density!!
Last Question:
What is density?
Answer: Density is mass per volume- which in a nutshell means, weight (how heavy an object is) in relation to size (how big something is or mass)
with that said - an 8oz cup of beans, will weight LESS than an 8oz cup of steak
because per volume steak is heavier then beans.
Now that you've grasped that concept.
This is the same thing with body weight..putting fat and muscles in the equation, we can see that Fat has more MASS (size) and Muscle is more DENSE (weight in relation to volume)!
So please the next time you're about to say "muscle weighs more than fat" please PLEASE...remember this and say "because muscle is more DENSE than fat"
Can you all do me that favor?
Lastly: Now i'm not using this in the bashing form, the reason why I posted this is for EDUCATIONAL purpose, to help the ones that are giving bad advice UNDERSTAND the FACTS, this way you won't give anyone WRONG advice/remarks!
