Can Fat change to Muscle?
It is a common fallacy that working out with weights (or doing resistance exercises) will result in your body fat turning in to muscle. Muscle and fat are two totally different kinds of body tissue. When you perform weight training exercises, you will build some muscle over time, but that muscle will take the place of fat that you lose. When you first start a weight loss diet program/routine/diet, you may want to concentrate on cardio exercise, along with your healthy eating, and then add a weight training program later on down the road.
However, If you prefer, you can start weight training right away. Just don't neglect the cardio and healthy eating if you are trying to lose weight or body fat.
