Anybody who would say that is someone who has never worked out in his life.

Announcer was repeating what he heard.
Zion should have been taught nutrition. And put on a diet provided to him.

His body type is unique to the NBA. They don’t know what to with him physically.

I'm sure he was weighed in a very scientific manner, there was no water weight, etc.

I saw some stupid article a couple days ago that claimed something like that. How dumb would you have to be to recite some ridiculous claim like that as if it were fact.

I don’t doubt he was working out and gained 8 pounds in a week but it wasn’t muscle

Bunch of soyboyz ITT jealous of Zion’s superior physics capabilities

Unless he started juicing, that didn't happen. 8 pounds of muscle is a lot to naturally gain in 6 months. A week?

There are recorded instances of people gaining seemingly impossible amounts of muscle due to being injured, experiencing extreme muscle atrophy, then restarting a workout regimen.
But it takes someone who had a great deal of muscle to begin with. Zion kinda fits that model.
That being said I seriously doubt it was 8lbs of pure muscle in a week. I could see him maybe gaining 8 pounds, some of which was muscle, his first week or so of working out intensely after his injury.

Sounded like some Tim Ferris shite.
"I ate 150 calories a day, drank nothing but pea milk, and slept with one foot elevated and put on 16 lbs of muscle in a 9 day span."

Possible with steroids

Entirely possible. I put on 8 lbs of muscle per week last year, now I walk around at 6'and 416 lbs. of fast twitch. Come at me baw
In all seriousness, the average person is a complete numbskull when it comes to exercise and nutrition. You don't even have to dig into the science or statistics, I'm talking common sense...
- "I wanna build lean muscle!" ...as opposed to fat muscle?
- "I lost 50 lbs. in a month using XYZ diet!"...did you cut off a limb?
- "Everyone should eat a plant based diet!"...isn't the average American diet, which is comprised of a shite load of carbs from grain, corn, and potatoes considered plant based
- "Arnold is vegan, look how big he is!"...Arnold built his body on meat, milk, and vitamin S from the time he was a teenager, he switched to vegan (supposedly) in his 70s. If I converted to Judaism tomorrow, would I claim that my Jewish faith is what made me good at my job?
- "Gluten free dessert is healthy!"...technically, a bag of sugar is gluten free
- "Antonio Brown is at 1% bodyfat"...he would literally be dead at that point

If I was the Pelicans I would put a weight incentive in his contract. Say an extra $1.5 million if you stay under 255 for 85% of season.
