Why Are Thin People Not Fat Video Series

As a Fitness Professional, I consider myself not only a teacher in the world of exercise, but also a student....and a mega geek one at that! In my free time, I'm always reading up on the latest research from both medical and fitness journals. I also spend time browsing the internet for the best methods to train all while developing my own style.

While browsing the web the other day, I stumbled upon a particularly interesting set of video series on youtube. Its called "Why are Thin People Not Fat?" The series goes through a study done on skinny individuals who had a hard time gaining and maintaining weight. Check it out for yourself and find out:
  • What one food causes fat gain more so than others.
  • "Survival of Fattest Gene" theory
  • How some foods are converted from fat into heat for "auto" burn (hence the importance of thermogenic foods in the diet)
  • And a bunch other interesting, but also perhaps controversial topics...
It is a bit long, each part is about 10 min, but they have really cool accents, so its easy to watch. Try to cover one a day. Go at it and learn:
