    Same here. I have been lifting for more than a yr now. This is the most I have weighed still fitting into 32 jeans. I usually had to weigh 170 or less to fit but now I am a bit over 180 and they fit no problem. The wonders of lifting heavy. Who knew.

    what takes up more space, five pounds of lead or five pounds of feathers?

    what takes up more space, 130 pounds of lean mass or 130 pounds of fat?

    Muscle weighs more than fat.

    Not really true. 1 lb of muscle weighs 1 lb, 1 lb of fat weighs 1 lb. But that 1 lb of muscle takes up less space.

    Sorry to be pedantic.
