For each inch of fat that you put on, the body has to lay down about a mile of tiny blood vessels called capillaries to supply the fat cells with blood. This means there's more demand for oxygen in the body. The lungs have to meet the demand.

Fluid build up, sports-induced Asthma, strain, and injury to the lungs may occur.
