Agree 100%. The data on this is pretty depressing. There isn't much you can do but eat less. Even huge bodybuilders quickly get fat when they go off season. All that muscle evidently doesn't work enough to offset the appetite.

Gaining 20lbs of muscle, which would be quite a visual change, would only burn about an extra candy bar.



When I was mountain biking heavily I could eat whatever. You just need a Huuuuuge amount of cardio, haha.
