โ“Does 1 pound of fat really weigh more than 1 pound of muscle?


In a word: No! 


โš–๏ธA pound weighs a pound, no matter whether it is feathers or metal.


But there are 2 key differences between fat and muscle that can make you think there is a difference in weight. 


They differ in density and volume, which affect the amount of SPACE they take up.


For reference:

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ1 pound of FAT is bulky, fluffy, and about the size of small grapefruit.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ1 pound of MUSCLE is dense, compact, and about the size of a small tangerine.


Enjoy the rest of your evening,


Coach Lu
