As many of you may know, I believe that reading for an hour per day is paramount if you hope to become a leader in any field.  Fitness and nutrition are no different.  Here is something to get you started for today.

Obesity is a Sign, Overeating is a symptom

One thing that drives me absolutely nuts is when some people in the fitness industry talk about obesity. 

“Get them off the scooters”.

“Tell them they just need to eat less”.

Wow…brilliant deduction Sherlock.  Or you could actually investigate the obesity research to determine that obesity (or excess weight in general) is more complex than just eating less and moving more.  If it were as easy as making a simple recommendation, most of North America wouldn’t have a problem would they?

Check out Dr Arya Sharma’s post above and spend some time on his blog.  It just might change the way you think about obesity.  If you work with people who are overweight, this is an absolute must.
