      Yeah we need to have a talk about how our internal stereotypes about stuff like "power" don't have much to do with human health or functioning Continuing to add more muscle without fat is like adding more cylinders to an engine and shrinking the gas in the tankhttps://twitter.com/GGarethwilson/status/1366320305963077632 …

      There's some dark humor in the "ripped action hero" look actually being more dangerous to achieve than the female equivalent. As I understand it, the actors would die if they had to look like that for a month.

      That look is so hard to achieve because your body actively fights it When you lose weight, you *lose muscle first before fat* -- because muscle is constantly burning calories while you have it so when your body is in calorie deficit it's trying to cut its losses

          The "model skinny" look that's considered desirable for women -- what bodybuilders derisively call "skinnyfat" -- is the natural way your body wants to look when your body is hungry all the time It's not a great feeling but it's way more "natural" than the bodybuilder look

          Ripped and toned and defined muscles are making your body burn calories at its maximum possible rate while having nothing in reserves as fat

          If calories were money, it's outright demanding someone live the spendthrift Brewster's Millions lifestyle "I want you to *earn* $250k a year and *spend* $250k a year -- not a damn penny left in the bank at the end of every week, I'll be checking"

          Is this true regardless what body fat percentage you start from? Like, sticking with your engine analogy, if you have a Corolla engine’s worth of muscle in a big rig with a 150 gallon fuel tank, adding cylinders to the engine and shrinking the fuel capacity would be *fine*.

          (I’m not asserting anything about what the body actually does, I truly don’t know. But … while difficult, it is *possible* … at least for some people … to lose weight & gain muscle. Which seems proof that preferentially losing muscle before fat must not be universally true.)
