The misconceptions regarding muscles

Its been a long time since I posted up here. I was rather surprised to come across a number of misconceptions regarding building muscle, even if it is not for bodybuilding competitions. While some assume that building muscle leads to baldness (due to an increase in testosterone levels when training with weights), other believe that it is more important to REDUCE WEIGHT ON THE SCALE THAN, NO MATTER WHAT, EVEN IF IT IS DONE AT THE RISK OF LOSING MUSCLE MASS. If you are someone who supports such theories then let me show you what you are headed for :
Sure, this guy will be able to wear anything he wants to and he may seem perfectly fit or thin to you but the truth is what is evident in the picture. This is known as the skinny-fat syndrome. It is not very easy to get out of such a situation. The only way to get out of this is to re-gain the weight lost, in a healthy manner, and then manipulate your metabolism from there on. What was all the effort, to starve yourself, for then?
As was stated above, the only way that one can get out of this conundrum is to gain weight and to do so in a healthy manner with a healthy diet plan and a healthy mind-set. Therefore, muscle must be gained to prevent you from falling prey to such a physique: where you merely create the illusion that you are thin.http://stronglifts.com/how-to-lose-the-skinny-fat-look-forever/.
The link that I have attached above is a mere summary of how you can save yourselves from this dilemma and I intend to elaborate upon this summary, in my own way.
