What was said

"A study just came out uh and I'll pull it up right now on uh the effects of muscle building to fat loss. Actually, this is an actual study. Um, and this was June of 2025."

Sal Di Stefano says a June 2025 peer-reviewed narrative review found that modest increases in skeletal muscle mass are associated with lower fat mass, and discusses possible mechanisms including insulin sensitivity and glucose storage. He presents the paper as support for strength training as a fat-loss tool despite its relatively low calorie burn during the workout.
