Body Fat Myth: If you don’t exercise, your muscle will turn to fat. It certainly seems that way – you stop exercising for a while, and pretty soon your taut and toned muscles start to feel like foam rubber. Strength training does build and repair muscle, so when you quit working out, your muscle fibres do shrink. And, you can start to store little bits of fat in between the muscle fibres – so you definitely feel a lot softer. But muscle and fat cells aren’t interchangeable. Just as you can’t turn a bone cell into a nerve cell, or a red blood cell into skin cell, muscle tissue can’t ‘turn into’ fat. Call us for a healthy weight gain / loss program: 0772238680
