Fitness Myth : Do Muscle will Become Fat?

I have heard some statement from my friends who don't want to do some work out of fitness related things. They said that they were afraid if their build up muscle will become fat if they don't do the exercise again in some time. I have thought about that too if you are wonder.

This is the great thing, the statement is false! Yes, if someone who usually going to gym and has great muscles will get much fat if he or she stop work up. The reason is not because the muscle is becoming fat.

The answer is :

Muscle and fat are two completely different tissues that have different functions, so it's physiologically impossible to turn one into the other. If you stop exercising, your muscles atrophy, so you lose the tone you worked so hard to create. And if you eat more calories than you burn, you'll gain fat.
