Who is more sensitive to temperature changes? Thick people or skinny people?
My personal observations suggest heavier set people are more sensitiv mo minor changes in temperature - quickly complaining if it it a few degrees to cold or to warm. amiright? |

Women and skinny people are more subject to cold temps.
Heavy people are more sensitive to heat. Very large muscular people have much higher core temperatures. The muscle creates more heat and the fat insulates it. This has been proven through a number of sports medicine studies. NFL lineman run core temperatures that would put many people in the hospital. |
