exercise suddenly can also create a change in mood. Feelings

muscle tissue are fundamentally different
— but the common expression that "muscle will turn to fat" is
truthful in the sense that catabolism of muscle fibers for
energy can result in excess glucose being stored as fat.
Moreover, the composition of a body part can change toward less
muscle and more fat, so that a cross-section of the upper-arm
for example, will have a greater area corresponding to fat and a
smaller area corresponding to muscle. This is not muscle
"turning into fat" however — it is simply a combination of
muscle atrophy and increased fat storage in different tissues of
the same body part.
