Bodybuilding has become a very popular sport over the past few decades. A bodybuilder trains with heavy weights to increase strength and to build large muscles for posing competitions or cosmetic purposes. While some body builders do so for competition purposes, still others simply like the look they can create for their own motivation.

Body builders also learn how to perform poses that accentuate the display of different muscle groups for purposes of being rated by competition judges.

If you are afraid to exercise because you think that after you stop, your muscles turn to fat, you are out-of-shape for the wrong reason.

Saying that your muscles can turn into fat is like saying that diamonds can turn into glass. Muscle and fat are two different types of tissue on your body! You simply cannot turn muscle into fat, or fat into muscle.
