The short answer
Only if you train and eat to build size. Building noticeable bulk takes years of specific training and eating more than you burn. For most people, lifting weights leads to a leaner, firmer and stronger body.
What decides size
Whether you build size or lean out depends on the weight you lift, your sets and reps, your tempo and, most of all, whether you eat in a calorie surplus or a deficit. A plan written for fat loss and toning looks different from one written for muscle gain.
Why weights help fat loss
Strength training builds and keeps lean muscle, which helps you look toned as you lose body fat. Lifting also burns energy during and after your workout. Cardio alone can leave people lighter but no stronger.
If you want to build muscle
Then you train for it on purpose: progressive overload, enough volume and enough food. Wayne is an ISSA Specialist in Bodybuilding and writes muscle building blocks for clients who want them.
