Jeremy from New Orleans, LA asks...

"Let's say you burn 500 Calories.
What would be the difference between burning 500 Calories with cardio training and burning 500 Calories with weight training ?

Would it modify the fat to muscle ratio that I would put on in case I take more calories than I burn/expense.

In both hypothetical cases, I would have the exact same meal with the exact same macronutrient ratios. How does the nature of the work out (for an equal amount of calories) affect this ratio ?
