Does MUSCLE turn to FAT? 

Answer is no.

One reason why people think that muscle and fat are interchangeable is that bigger people tend to gain muscle easier. I played American football in college and needed to get heavier and stronger. So I ate a lot of carbs/protein and drank a lot of beer. Some call this the dirty bulk. I did gain weight (25 lbs) and got a lot stronger. This might be due to all the carbs I was consuming gave me more energy for my workouts. For those trying to get healthy, I recommend learning to do the pull up-Paul has a great video about that. And doing lots of push ups. I was at my strongest when I was doing 500 push-ups a day. Even when I went weeks without touching the bench press and came back stronger on it!

Finally a video to the point, pure facts, without bullshit.

I miss this homie

OH FORTRESS PAUL HI ANGLE. I HAVE ONE GOOD QUESTION FOR YOU WITH THIS IDEA OF MUSCLE AND FAT. SO THE QUE IS: WHEN YOU WAKE UP ON THE EMPTY STOMACH AND NO EATING NO DRINKING SOME CALORIES DONT EATING ANYTHING JUST GO FOR CARDIO LIKE RUNNING SPRINTING SOMETHING LIKE THAT THAT MAKES YOUR HEART PUMPS UP ITS GREAT TO LOSE WEIGHT I KNOW BUT WHATS ABOUT MUSCLE DID YOU LOSE IT OR NOT? LIKE EVERY MORNING YOU WAKE UP AND GO FOR CARDIO. CAN YOU TELL ME AND OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT IT IS IT GOOD OR BAD IDIA ? TY.

Hey Paul great video as usual, just something I noticed that is a bit weird to me - you keep saying multiple time throughout the video "it's Paul with you today from the fortress channel". In my opinion you should only say it at the beginning\at the end of the video and it should be enough. Enjoy your day :)

a vlog about how the baby wakes up crying about every three hours in the night.... that might be interesting....

Paul love you man keep doing your thing take care brother God bless.

Make a video of their weekly training. What day, what muscle groups. Spasibo)

Hi Paul. While I enjoyed your explanation of how muscle and fat are two different substances, and not interchangeable, I did want to remark that you didn't seem like a very happy camper in this video...not that it's written that you have to end your talks on a high note with jubilation, or even with a smile. Of course, I always like how you speak, as I see you speaking with the voice of reason...and that alone is enough for me. ✌

You really look like "Harry" in the amazing spiderman lol keep up the good job

Amazing info!

Great vid. Thanks for the tips man

Hi Paul, are you a vegetarian/vegan? Can you do a full day of eating video please? Thanks

I used to believe if I stoped working out my muscle tissues will turn into fat. But I watched many videos like it won’t happen, it’s just a myth. Now my question is “too much of training or cardio kills our gains right ? So how it couldn’t burn only fat by doing cardio but can shrink our muscle tissues too?

Why look so miserable?

Hey Paul you looked like you just about made it to the end of that video. Take some time out we can wait ;-)

Great video Paul!

You should uploaded a follow along workout vid, you haven't done that in a while. I'm similar to you I struggle to gain weight when I stop working out.

@Kill Flash hey there, that happened to me as well when I fist started boxing. But my wrist hurt like hell for like a month and a half or so. But it went away on its own, just keep training.

You seem very tired the recent months (for good reasons I am sure), but try to be a bit more energetic in your videos and smile

Pavel, thanks for great video. It would be awesome and useful if you could make a video about supplements and alcohol effects on fitness. Thank you again! ;)

So what should i eat when i stop working out and don´t want to lose muscles?

Павел а почему переводы не делаешь на Русский язык ,у тебя на Русском канале тоже много подпистчиков .

Paul, have you ever smoked pot? some people say that it helps them with creativity.

Hey Paul, Nice video. I would like to ask about the "muscle memory" concept, where muscle is quicker to grow back after detraining. I would like to hear your explanation of this concept. I have taken a break from exercising after a severe illness but my diet has only ever improved (edging closer to 100% raw vegan) over the previous 24 months. I have started training and have noticed quite an impressive growth over a short period of time (I'm talking less than a month). Peace

i lost weight by not eating for 3-4 days in a row,i lost all of my build i had but i did manage to lose 20 lbs. :)

what do you think about a vegan diet for bodybuilding?

whats the best time to drink the protien ?

my fav person

Ok, so after listening to the video it doesn't make me eye roll at least. Already gained muscle (protein) doesn't turn to fat. Since it is the name of the video, I guess I jumped to conclusions. That said, I wanted to add that taking in too much protein to gain muscle does turn to fat. Sorry I read this wrong. Gained muscle will be used by the body for energy, like fat, though it works fat primarily 1st since it is easier to convert to energy. I just see people gobbling down ridiculous amounts of protein the body can't absorb for muscle. Some of the protein will just get excreted, but some of it will be converted to fat. And the process on the body to convert protein to fat is harsh. Just wanted to get that out there.... but again, read it wrong, sorry, good vid.

Is it not pretty basic Biology that you learn on a pretty low level? atleast it is in my country,i learned this on the first year, on the lowest level of bioligy, people seriosly don't do a tiny bit of research before starting to work out? :p

Fortress looks irritated cause his prayers for more muscle aren't coming true.

You couldnt just say "yes" then explain why

Dear Paul, I'm 11 years old and not really trying to lose weight I just want to get stronger and stay fit do you have any recommendations for me? If so please reply. Thx

Hey! Can you please tell me how to make bigger my chest? You know shoulder to shoulder, I mean the width

Hey paul i got a question for you . How many grams of protein we can absorb ? Like if im gonna eat a 60 gram of protein will it be all absorbed or some of it will ?

In every video you make..... there is always NOISE in the background!

Где видео на русско язычном канале ???

What if I have insomnia and I can't sleep can my muscle still grow ?

Если тебе не трудно сделай пожалуйста на русском или с русскими субтитрами.

What to do against wrist pain and what is creating it? I got it after my first time I went boxing and now have it for almost 4 weeks, its getting better slowly.

Nice

Answer: No. Our bodies aren't retarded.
