basically look at it this way, the muscles of your torso are all interconnected, the curvature of your back pushes down on your chest which in turn pushes down on your stomach, pushing your stomach out, making you look like you have a fat belly, only it's not fat, it's just the soft tissue of your abdominal region has nowhere else to go but out when pushed down on.
