Just to add to this- muscle is denser than fat, which is why you can be slim and built and way more than someone who is a bit flabby.

Its not the same at all. You can quite happily gain a lot of muscle mass without losing any fat whatsoever. In the same way you can lose fat without gaining any muscle whatsoever.

It's also why track stars and basketball players should never be allowed to swim: No fat means no flotation.
