Default Re: Building Muscle AND losing fat at the same time..how?

[ QUOTE ]
Ok, but if I'm working out and I'm fat, would my body convert those extra 500 calories into fat, or would it use the fat on my body and use those extra 500 calories to build muscle mass?

fat/increased metabolism.

can't build muscle by eating more i don't think. maybe you're thinking of not building muscle because you're not eating enough/not eating enough protein.

Interesting non practical deal is that if you long distance ran everyday before eating (marathon runners burn a pound of fat during a marathon I think), then you could burn fat and if you (over)ate later in the day you could put fat back on I guess.
