FAT people are exactly like dole bludgers. They complain, whinge and take everything they can for free without taking responsibility for their health.
That's the bold view of Julius and Sharny Kieser, the Queensland-based personal training team, who are also husband and wife, who run a dynamic health and fitness business focused purely on benefiting people who are already fit.
"We're sick of fat people complaining and moaning about their weight, like they are victims. There is a small proportion of obese people who genuinely need help. The problem is the other group of people who are fat and lazy; who just take advantage of all the help that is out there because they think they deserve it," said Julius.
"Twenty years ago it was mean to point out the one fat kid in the class, because he or she genuinely had a problem. But now, 80 to 90 per cent of us are overweight if not obese and it's become un-PC to say anything about that."
Julius believes there is now even a backlash against fit people. So instead of fat people being made to feel awkward, he says that fit people are often made to feel bad about making their health a priority.
"Bad health is one of the worst things you can have, probably our most poignant problem in the world today," Julius says. "That said, having a drug addiction and poor financial health are probably just as bad.
"Fit people can be influenced by the people around them. As they steadily choose to live a healthy life they can become side-tracked by the people closest to them, like their husband or wife. We give them advice and tips to help them keep going on the healthy path. Hopefully this will widen the gap so that they'll eventually inspire other people around them to live healthily too," said Julius.
Athletes and CEOS make up the bulk of the couple's clientele and both present unique training challenges.
"Fit people aren't all size eight, they come in all shapes and sizes. Fit people come in all shapes and sizes; it's about the part of the brain that they allow themselves to rely on. The' fit' part of the brain that encourages exercise and healthy eating and the 'fat' brain which is lazy and tells you not to bother," said Sharny.
Time is the biggest constraint for people in high-powered positions.
"It's common for CEOS that we train to be time poor, but we teach them how to be entrepreunial about their fitness. Instead of taking an hour out of your day, and conserving your energy throughout the hour, we encourage them to use intensity. Fifteen or twenty minute sessions where they are working at their peak," said Julius.
The couple also focuses on reminding their clients that it's not selfish to focus on making health and exercise a priority.
"When people are time poor they can feel guilty about taking time out from family to exercise, but the truth is if you don't look after yourself, you cannot look after anyone else," said Julius.
Julius and Sharny's lessons for a healthy life
1. Don't accept that you're fat. "You should be uncomfortable about it, you should be ashamed about it. You need to do something about it."
2. Only you know your body, listen to it and trust yourself. Notice how certain foods and exercise make you feel and adapt them into your life or learn to live without them.
3. Realise that you are the leader in your life. Be inspiring to yourself and those around you by committing to your health and fitness goals. Give them everything you have got.
4. When it comes to diet, only change one thing at a time. Don't try and cut out grains and sugar and alcohol all at once. Try one thing and notice the effect it has on your body before you take it on board long-term.
