ok so tell me if this isnt retarded.
"A high-ranking Blazers source told Jason Quick on Thursday that Greg Oden still has the same body-fat percentage (7.8 percent) as he did when the Blazers drafted him, yet he has gained nearly 30 pounds, bringing him near 280 pounds.
Translation: That's 30 pounds of muscle that has been attached to his upper-body (he hasn't been able to do any lower body weight training because of his knee surgery). "
well if he gained 30 pounds of muscle then his body fat % would have gone down no? so obv some of that 30 pounds was fat/whatever if its still the same body fat %... 250lbs with 7.8 is less fat than 280 with 7.8. its not really a big deal but its dumb that a writer would mess this up and kind of funny that he gets cocky and says "Translation: (wrong shit)"

Im confused... why is this wrong?
he said:
oden had body/fat percent of 7.8
oden gained 30lbs [of unspecified body mass]
oden still has body/fat precent of 7.8
what exactly am I missing?

So he gains 27.66 lbs of muscle and 2.44 lbs of fat?

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
