How can fat people lift more weight than skinny people?
recently i lost a lot of weight (maybe 50 pounds) and i still have a tiny bit of belly fat (maybe 1/2 an inch) that im still trying to work off. and my mom keeps telling me im underweight and look like a skeleton (this kinda hurts because the reason i lost all that weight was to keep people from making fun of the way i look, and now i still apparently look bad.), so i asked my grandpa if he can show me how to lift some weights to make up for my wieght and the way i look. im not lifting too much only about 20 pounds plus the bar, but hes saying that if i hadnt of lost all that weight i could be lifting 300 pounds by now, i dont get it. how does being fat allow you to lift so much more weight?
Being fat has nothing to do with it, it’s all about how much muscle you have and how much weight your body can handle to lift.
thats kinda what i was thinking… but i dont want to just tell my grandpa hes wrong, hes been doing this for years…
Then don’t say anything, just let him believe what he wants:)
muscle weighs more than fat. It also depends on the health of the person and life style.
Like Kayla said, being heavy doesn’t mean you’re strong. Most of the time, the heavier people are much weaker than I am, and I weigh under 150lb.
Bigger /=/ Stronger Stronger /=/ Bigger
i agree with those people , for an example im small and skinny ‘apparntly’ and i have no mucle on me lol honeslty i sometimes struggle pushing a door open in college where as people with more mucle then me can and can do alot more then i could do x
