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

Often they do to some degree but as in the gym you have to up the weight to progress at some point. There are also other factors to consider. Being overweight for example negatively effects testosteron. And being overweight and not moving a lot are kinda linked obviously so an overweight person will on average move less.
