that was a bit vague. What health class was this. To me it seems primary school teachers who think high reps bring tone

. When you lift muscle is damaged and fibers are freyed. During the repair phaze the body cleans up the debris, repairs and builds on the muscle (if need be) using the nutrience you eat, but this is second priority in comparison to mandatory bodily functions.

Sounds like the teacher might have been referring to sedentry people. Ask him/her if the same applies to someone with an active lifestyle and about those doing a streneous (sp?) workout like bodybuilders.

if you work out, your muscles need repairing. your body takes the additional calories ... proteins ... to build new muscle. if you sit on your ass your body has no need to build new muscle so yes any additional calories will be stored as fat. is that better professor? Originally Posted by Machher
