Keep in mind that the more muscle you build, the more energy it takes to move that muscle therefore the more calories you’ll burn during your activities through the day. It’s not necessarily about the calories you burn during the workout but the aggregate impact downstream.
I could be wrong though I don’t go to the gym lol.
You are kind of wrong, in that the effect of the extra muscle is pretty minimal. See this video on the topic:
What about muscles? Muscles burn 3 times more calories at rest than fat. This sounds impressive, but tissues like your brain, skin or intestines burn way more. In absolute terms, a more muscular body composition makes a difference for how many calories your body burns, but it’s relatively small. Muscles matter a lot for health, longevity and performance, but not that much for weight loss.
