How come dudes that stop lifting weights turn chubby

[icho]

I have noticed that dudes that lift weights and use supplements over a number of years suddenly balloon and look blotted when they stop lifting. Does this mean supplements are just good when lifting and when you stop you balloon outta control.

if you keep taking SOME supplements without lifting...then yeah you will get fat.

but most people dont still take supplements when they dont lift. the reason you're probably looking for is in their diet. you can eat 3700-4000 calories a day when you lift, and you'll still look diesel cause you burn a lot of them. when you stop lifting...you have to taper off your eating habits or that stored energy will just turn into fat.

most of the time they keep the same eating habits

No supplement will make you get fat.

If you take them and don't work out then what the **** are you even taking them for in the first place??

Before anyone says Creatine,Creatine does'nt make you gain fat,the extra superficial weight gain you may get from it is water weight which will be lost when you stop taking it.

Obviously if you are an Endo-Morph chugging weight gainer shakes you will gain fat,but weight gainers are just meals in liquid form.I don't consider them supplements at all.

A popular myth is that the muscle turns to fat. This is obviously stupid though.

The real reason is mental. You have to look at why they stopped lifting in the first place. Most likely, it is because they got lazy. Along with this laziness comes poor eating habits and lack of exercise. So they get fat.

People who stop lifting, but continue doing cardiovascular exercise do not get fat, they just get skinny.

Just because you dont consider it a supplement doesnt make it so. Most people do, so thats what I was referring to.

he's right.. its physically impossible for muscle to turn into fat, or fat to turn into muscle.
you lose muscle and gain fat and vice versa

the reason why dudes that stop workin out get fat, is cause their body is used to taking a certain amount of calories.. so wen niggs stop workin out, they dont adjust there caloric intake, so as a result they get fat..

look it up
