Again, its physics. you cant take less calories in than you expend and gain weight. its not possible. To gain weight, you must have a surplus or calories. SO.. you can't run, lift etc and burn 3500 calories a day and gain weight without consuming MORE than 3500 calories per day.
my friend owns www.musclemagazine.com. its one of the best sources of information about nutrition and exercise on the web. Read about dieting there. Read how hard they work, how much they try, about the sacrifices, how much experimentation it takes to get it right... then tell them "sorry guys, its genetic".

And I will guarantee you that each person who your friend works with doesn't eat the same nor exercise the same to be equally as fit as they are.
Their genetics might required Jimmy to exercise twice as much as Jeremy and half as much as Bob and they'll all have the same fitness level. Ditto with what they put into their bodies.
I'll see what info I can dig up from my brother. It was the only study he's ever done that interested me, hehehe.
