ELI5, what happens when you consume more calories than you use, if you are working out? Do you gain weight as muscles, fat or both?
In: Biology
Technically, no matter what, if you consume more than you use, you will get fat.
The catch being that you are using some to build/repair muscle. More than that will become stored fat in the body. If you’re working out really hard, it’s less likely to consume too many excess calories though. Kind of depends on genetics and such.
