What Should You Do If You’re Skinny Fat?

What Should You Do If You’re Skinny Fat?

About 10% of the clients we work with are skinny fat.

This means they have skinny arms, skinny legs, no chest, shoulders and back ..

But they have a belly.

It’s not big, but it’s soft with love handles and lower back fat.

The real issue with being skinny fat is that most guys think they are perfectly healthy, when they are not.

After reviewing many blood reports from skinny fat guys, their blood markers are as bad as an obese man.

You never think so.

But because they have a low muscle to fat ratio their metabolic health suffers.

That’s because muscle mass clears glucose from your blood.

So even if you don’t look fat, you may still be prediabetic, insulin resistant, have a fatty liver, high blood pressure and low testosterone.

It’s a death by 1000 cuts.

The big mistake most guys who are skinny fat do is that they do an aggressive cut first.

That will just make you even skinner due to further loss of muscle mass.

Let’s not forget that skinny fat is caused by a lack of muscle mass combined with average-to-slightly-above-average body fat.

Instead of focusing on being less fat, focus on being less skinny by increasing your muscle mass.

You should still cut, but in a much less aggressive fashion and focus all your efforts on maximizing muscle mass.

As you increase your muscle mass through strength training your metabolic health will improve.

You’ll burn more calories at rest and you’ll start to increase your muscle to fat ratio.

Your muscle mass will be the path for you to optimize your health while looking great.

It’s what we did with this 47 year old dentist.

His name is Steven Hatcher and he’s a go getter and high achiever.

He wasn’t obese or in terrible shape to begin with, but knew he was built for more and wanted to take it to the next level.

He went from skinny fat to being lean and aesthetic while putting on muscle mass.

His free testosterone almost doubled naturally.

He’s waking up with morning erections.

He’s one of the healthiest patients his doctors sees.

And this all within months of implementing the Kinetic Method.

I’m taking on one more skinny fat guy this month to shred away his love handles and put on muscle mass along the way.

Hit me up for the details.
