That is because when someone makes the statement that "muscle weighs more than fat". Then weight is the variable in the equation and your suppose to make the conclusion on your own that with equal volume of muscle and fat. Muscle will weight more.
So in your example if you make weight a constant and you take 5lbs of muscle and 5lbs of fat. You will have more volume of muscle.0 -
Jelly beans ARE NOT heavier than cotton balls!
A pound of jelly beans are same weight as a pound of cotton balls,
Therefore, jelly beans are not heavier...
Oh! and bricks! 100lbs of bricks are not heavier than 100lbs of feathers...
This is like 2nd grade science!
Of course muscle weighs more. LOL0 -
I think we should stop obsessing about what weighs more than what and simply aim to have less fat and more muscle IN GENERAL. People get so caught up in the fine print... how do you feel, how do you look? Are you strong? Etc. The minute I stopped obsessing about that stuff and focused on being healthier and stronger in general, the fat pretty much melted off. Just sayin.0

Yes, but, which is heavier, a ton of feathers or a ton of coal ?
On the Moon or on earth?0 -
I am pretty sure what people means is that it is more dense. So if you have one cubic feet of muscle, that will weigh more than one cubic feet of fat!0
