Fat mass main form of energy storage in body fat stored in fat cell called adipocytes they are entirely fat and effective in expanding and shrinking to hlep energy stoage needs of body. Protein used into tissue of body but not readily aviable for energy store. Carbohydrate stored in body as well but storage limited cuz every g of carbo stored in 3 g of water. Every g of carb provide 4kcal energy to 9kcal of fat. Energy to weight ratio= benefit to have fat stored as energy. 70 kg man could have %body fat low as 10% which means he has 7k of fat in his body. 7kg fat * 1000kcal/kg * 9kcal/g= 63,000 kcal to store 63k of carbo u need 15. 75 of carbo plus 47. 25 kg of water.
