Ep. #889: How Can Some People Eat So Much Without Gaining Weight?


Listen Later

Why is it that some people seem to eat whatever they want without putting on any body fat? Almost all of us know that person that just doesn’t put on body fat no matter how much they eat.

And if you search the internet for 10,000 calorie challenges or #cheatday, you’ll see plenty of very fit folks eating huge amounts of food, without any body fat to show for it.

What gives?

While it seems like these people have some innate ability to eat without consequence, their bodies follow the same physiological rules as everyone else's. The real explanation boils down to their eating and exercise habits, including the ones you don’t see.

In this podcast, I’ll answer why some people seem to be able to eat as much as they want without getting fatter. Press play and let me know what you think!
