ITT: Stupid shit non-lifting people say about lifting/fitness
"Doesn't the fat just turn into muscle?"
It must be nice to have the time to work out and be able to eat anything you want without worrying.

>Doesn't the fat just turn into muscle?
I thought you needed fat to make gains.
I am stupid though.
Please enlighten me.

your body can only hold so much muscle without also holding fat also. ie. your ffmi
if you want to build muscle you need to eat at a surplus, and some fat gain is generally inevitable at a surplus
or you could roid and not need to hold fat but then you got other concerns.
>>38733171
Fat and muscle are made up of two entirely different types of cells.
It's like saying you could turn your bones into muscle or something.

You need excess energy to build muscle. You could always just eat more though, you don't need to actually have fat on your body. Its a meme auschwitz kids made up to explain why they can't get big.

I heard all three of these in the same night, from the same person.

>I'm never going to be in a fight anyway

>na, i tried dieting once and it didn't do anything

>getting into a fight
Unless you get jumped by a group of guys from all sides, nothing stops you from legging it.
You have to want to get into a fight.

My uncle said this to me when i started bulking like a motherfucker.

Unless you're a chain smoker who does no cardio. Or have been drinking. Or get surprised. Or are sitting down. Or are on a bus. Or literally anything else other than standing in an open street.
