Sup /fit/
I got a hypothetical scenario (not hypothetical at all, read on) suppose a person spends a year lifting at the gym and takes protein shake to complement. Suppose this person has rather bad eating habits (mixing pasta with rice and eating a lot of bread and crackers). The person is rather fit, has bulked up (lost weight and gained muscle mass, toning). Now what if the person stops working out and stops drinking the shake while still eating rather poorly? Will all the gains become fat?
I ask this because I see someone do this every other year of their life. It's kind of a bad cycle. Every time my friend stops working out and proteining shaking up, he gains 10-12 kilos and becomes a fat slob. And it happens so quickly that it is quite unbelievable. What's going on? Is this the fault of the shake?
shameless self-bump
So is there like a chubby gene that whey protein activates in fatties?

He is consuming more calories than his body burns by existing, shake has nothing to do with it.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I think he is addicted to the shake tho, bc everytime he stops drinking it, he stops working out.

On a sidenote, now he's fat again. So he'll start working out and drinking protein shake again. Then he'll lose the extra weight. And on and on and on.
