[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Muscle does NOT WEIGH MORE THAN FAT. This is such wrong and outdated thinking. Muscle is more dense than fat, meaning 1 lb of muscle takes up less space than 1 lb of fat meaning someone who is 150 lbs but has lots of muscle will *weigh the same* but look better and leaner than someone who is also 150 lbs but with very little muscle and a high body fat percentage. They will not weigh less. [/quote]

By this logic, no material weighs less than another. You can always just add more of the less dense material.

So you don’t like the short hand for this. We are glad you have spent a lot of time correcting others. 👏 👏 [/quote]

Some material DOES weigh less than others. It will take MORE cotton to reach a pound of cotton than it will take iron to reach a pound of iron. A pound of either weighs a pound though. No matter what. [/quote]

Did you read the post I was correcting? We are both describing density. The post I quoted doesn’t like the short hand version re: body fat versus muscle. That person is always fun at parties. [/quote]
