Obese people may contain fat-building enzymes with muscles

Just read an article in the paper today (UK paper) that claims new research has found that obese people may have more fat-building enzymes present within muscles. This basically means that their muscles are "programmed" to collect fat. This phenomenon could explain difficulties in losing and keeping off weight. The paper printed a quote from one of the researchers - Dr Deborah Muoio - she states "The good news is it' s possible to change your energy balance through exercise"
