Episode 2648:

Christian Finn debunks the myth that each pound of muscle burns 50-100 extra calories daily, revealing it’s actually closer to 5-6 calories. He explains how the metabolic boost from muscle gain is modest and highlights the importance of resistance training for overall body composition and metabolism.

Quotes to ponder:

"Most research shows that muscle doesn’t burn that many calories when it’s in a resting state."

"In short, you can’t turn fat directly into muscle. But the energy stored in fat can and will be used to fuel muscle growth."
