Edit:I FOUND THE ANSWER!.

Yay i found it "Muscle is 18% more dense than fat!." you can see the entire discussion here http://www!.calorie-count!.com/forums/post!.!.!.
Its a really great read!. Have a nice day!


FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!.

After a quick google of "how much does fat weigh" i found a ton of dumbass's saying "1 pound of fat is the same as 1 pound of muscle durrr"

This could possibly be THE STUPIDEST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD ON THE INTERNET!. And that is REALLY saying something!.

This is even more retarded then all those idiots running around going "UR M0M lulz!"!.

If you have one pound of something and one pound of ANYTHING else, OF COURSE THEY WILL WEIGH THE SAME, NO **** sherlock!.

If you have an EQUAL volume of fat and an EQUAL volume of muscle, then the muscle will weigh more!. the question is HOW MUCH MORE!?

I personally would love to know, and it seems to be hard to find out since everywhere someone asks some mentally impaired person runs up and says something completely idiotic like, "1 pound of fat and 1 pound of muscle weigh the same, oh yes, I am so damn smart, they should write that on my tombstone!."

This is for the totally insane and shockingly stupid people on the internet!.

And all of you should go into politics, you will fit right in!.

Anyway, I hope someone will respond to this with a real answer, until then, I'm, off to google to try and find it myself!.

Edit: I still haven't found the answer, however, I did find something i would like to quote to ward off further one pound is one pound non-sense replys!.

"To be technical: Weight is the measure of mass times the gravitational pull on an object!. Mass is a measure of how much space something takes up!. So, to compare the weights of two different things you must compare two equal masses and how they relate to gravity!. If you take equal masses of muscle and fat, muscle (being more dense) has a greater gravitational pull than fat, and, therefore, weighs more!.
