If obese people are constantly moving around 50-80 etc extra pounds, would they not logically be way more muscular than the average person?

Question

Shouldnt large people be jacked just from simply moving around with the extra weight? Im talking about muscle mass here and not fat content. Thanks

Answer 1

I was near 400lbs at my heaviest in my early 20s, and well over 300lbs most of my life until the last year or so. My legs are jacked from carrying my fat around all those years, for sure.

So yes, it can be the case. My upper body, though? Weaker than a bowl of mush.
