Remember: 1 pound of fat = 3500 calories
Also, i heard a rule of thumb (don't know if it's true) that 1 pound of muscle gained = 50 calories per day of metabolism to maintain it.

So gaining a pound of muscle gives you 350 less calories a week "free".

Anyone know if this is true? Googling turned up nothing.
