To a large extent I agree. Just like to win some gender and sexuality related arguments, some people lean WAYY too fucking hard on the concept that hermaphrodites exist, therefore everything is a spectrum, because some people are born with both genitals, therefore everything is really nothing and nothing is really everything and therefore we can make the rules up as we go to whatever makes me feel better about myself (this is just my dumb uneducated take on it, not looking to start a debate on this subject)
The same idea can be applied to the other factors in obesity. The most simple and most important factor is energy in vs energy out, but there are many little complicating factors like different genetic metabolic rates, different grellin hunger hormone levels, availability of healthy food, etc
All of these other factors are concisely summarized in this video by Jeff Nippard I previously posted to the Lose Weight thread. To what degree you want to lean on these other factors as excuses for your success or more likely your failure (cope as you call it) depends on the person. I personally put a shit ton of value on energy in vs energy out and have no qualms about calling people who fail undisciplined and lazy
And, if I could volunteer to be injected with DNA that would change my metabolic rate and hunger negatively so I could prove I could STILL lose fat through sheer effort and willpower even with a bigger genetic disadvantage I would. But alas we lack the technology to give me shittier genetics

ignoring your sad obsession with lgbtq people, i just want to say i'm glad you're following jeff nippard. he's very pretty, and his stuff is always well-sourced and generally based on legitimate science- which is super impressive, especially as someone without a graduate degree in a related field.
to date he is the only "big name" i've seen come out with a decent glute hypertrophy program. if you're writing exercise programs in 2023 and not including a method of autoregulation it's time for you to find a new job tbh. lucy davis and bret contreras got nothin' on nippard <3
quality video that everyone should watch! that was a good link
