Yeah, most overweight people tend to just be average or less than average strength, even if the excess fat makes their movement harder and require more stamina.
But, I'll be hones; I'm quick to get jealous when any male, thin or fat, is stronger or equal strength to me when they've never worked out or ate healthy a day in their lives, and the truth is some overweight males are lucky enough to develop more natural strength than a thin person their age who doesn't exercise.
Oh well, it might sound cruel of me, but jokes on them, because they're almost always have higher risk of disease and unhealthier in every other way other than strength.
My friend's older brother, aged 21, is extremely strong naturally, but the excess fat has caused him mobility issues - he has the knees and joints of a 30-40 year old. His arm, back, and leg joints and ligaments often hurt or tear and he is incapable of working due to physical disability.
And, he's not even that much stronger. I can at least hold my own in an arm wrestle, and when we finish his arm will be torn/aching.
I may sound cruel, but it is simply a fact that overweight people have higher risk for diseases and shorter lifespan and such.
So, are overweight people more 'muscular'? Some are naturally more muscular, yes. But for every male who is overweight and muscular, a thinner person will always be faster, higher durability, endurance, stamina, better CNS, stronger joints/ligaments, faster metabolism, more flexible, less cholestoral, less risk of diabetes, etc.
