Is it your training or your diet

The other day I read a statement in which someone said that overweight people always think it is their diet that is lacking so they look for the latest fad or pill and underweight people looking to gain weight always think that their training is lacking so they look for the latest workout fad. The statement went on to say that most overweight people should instead focus more on their training and the underweight people should focus more on their diet. I have found this to be true. Most people who are looking to lose weight are not active enough. If you are trying to lose weight then you should be exercising a minimum of 5 hours per week and those hours should include some sort of weight training and intervals. On the other hand every person that I have ever worked with that needed to gain weight had a horrible diet. These are usually guys who are looking to add muscle and they are never lazy when it comes to getting their workouts in. They probably workout too much and they are always looking for the latest workout program that is going to get them results. If these individuals would instead focus on their diet they would get much better results.
