When u are overweight is it harder to grow muscle mass?

u will grow muscle at the same rate a skinny person will grow muscle but it's just harder of u to see the muscle because (im not tryin to be mean) there is fat covering it up i suggest u inlcude some cardio in your workout b ut keep weight lifting cause it gives u more muscle even though u cant see it and haveing muscle increases your metabolism. your metabolism is the rate at which u burn fat. so a faster metabolism will result in u burning more fat than u normally burn and giving u more energy
