What would be a good way to turn fat into muscle without losing weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise: Any vigorous exercise will do; weight training may be more effecive. It is not feasible to turn fat into muscle, to lose fat, you will need to reduce your caloric intake while maintaining protein intake of about one gram/kg of body weight and exercise.
