Arrow Fat vs. Muscle

I came across an interesting picture. I always thought that muscle weighed more than fat, but it's just a myth. They are equal to the same weight...the difference is that fat weight takes up more space on the body than muscle does.

I always wondered why some people look way bigger than me but weigh less or weigh the same as me...but I look way smaller compared to them. It used to frustrate me big time. I realize now that the difference is that I am carrying more muscle weight...and they have more fat weight.

Anyways..thought I'd share the pic with you guys.

Well that makes me feel a little better. I wish I knew exactly how much muscle I was packing.
