Fact or Fable: Can my fat be changed to muscles
Fact or Fable:
Do muscles in fat change when I stop training?
Fable! Muscle and fat are not the same.
A muscle is tissue that consists of cells that can contract and relax, allowing you to move.
Fat is a type of connective tissue that stores energy in the form of fat.
Why then do I gain weight when I stop exercising?


If you use your muscles less or not, they lose their elasticity and decrease in size.
And if you stop exercising, you use less energy.
You also need less energy (fuel).
This means that you have to adjust your diet if you do want to stop training: less food.
If you want to live healthy and want a healthy weight, then move and eat healthy.
Facts

Your body has more than 600 muscles.
Your body has different types of fat.Visceral fat is around the organs and has a function: the protection of those organs. However, a surplus is unfavorable for your health. Subcutaneous fat is everywhere in your body and is not that harmful to your health. And then there is brown fat: this fatty tissue keeps your body warm and keeps the metabolism up to standard. Adult people have only a minimal amount of brown fat.
Provide a healthy Body Mass Index (BMI). This is an index for weight in relation to body height and tells you something about the health risk of your body weight. Hope you know your BMI
The BMI is not always a useful measure, especially for intensive strength athletes. This is because a high muscle mass provides a higher weight. Therefore, athletes with a BMI of> 25 do not necessarily have health risks.
