What is your definition of “muscle”?
People may write pages to answer this question. But what impressed me was Vince's simple but convincing reply which is as below: FAT FREE MASS . The human body can manufacture (under optimal training, nutrition, supplements and recovery) anywhere from .25 to 1.0 pounds of dry muscle tissue a week. So we’re talking 2 to 4 pounds per month and this can be higher or lower based on the individual. Understand, when you increase muscle size (Dry Muscle), you’ll also be able to increase glycogen AND water storage in those new muscles. More muscle equals more water and glycogen. This is all considered FAT FREE MASS and it’s weight that will make you look awesome. So when we say you can gain “12 pounds of muscle”, we’re NOT referring to 12 pounds of dry muscle, we’re referring to 12 pounds of dry muscle AND glycogen AND water. Fat free mass !
