Monday Myth: Heavier Scale numbers means you are Fat

    Having higher numbers on the scale doesn't necessarily mean that you are fat. Sometimes the weight added that we see on the scale is just water weight and not actually body fat. It is said that during the beginning stages of weighted training and lean muscle build that you would notice an increase in weight, but this weight is just water weight as the muscle you are building contains a large amount of water, but later on your body will adjust. Plus there are beliefs that muscles weigh more than fat although that debate is still on. You just need to keep a moderate size and keep fit, eat healthy and sometimes you just have to forget about the scale and trust your workout.
