Fat caliper.

Yes. And you can pretty easily differentiate fat tissue from lean tissue simply by looking in the mirror. Say you gain 2 kg, and don't look fatter it's safe to assume you hypertrophied to a certain degree.

Yes you can. I gained 15 lbs. over the summer while doing 2 hrs on the bike when I decided to quit smoking.

Lift 30 minutes
Run a mile and eat 10k calories
Do this for 100 days and then get back to us with your findings

... are you agreeing or disagreeing with my statement? My contention was that you can gain fat whilst exercising it sounds like your trying to refute my claim by agreeing with it.

fat has a function within the body.

it isnt supposed to be a bad thing but the way we live is a big ****ing problem.
your body will utilize whatever energy it needs and STORE the rest of it(get fat)
