Indian Genetics - Unable to Get Leaner?

Everyone’s pretty much said this over and over again.

As a South Asian, I’ve heard my some of my friends complain about the same stuff. I hate it. I have an equal amount of Indian/Pakistani friends who break these stereotypes and carry significant muscle with low body fat.

Why do people complain about “Indian genetics”?

Shit diet.

Has everyone seen what we Indians/Pakistanis eat? Pretty much EVERYTHING is eaten with white rice and/or white bread. It is no surprise that many of us have diabetes and/or heart problems. You have to out-train years of eating like this.

Here’s some serious advice from one South Asian (who has seen this work in many of my friends as well as myself a longgg time ago) to another: drop the carbs for a little while and then evaluate. Try the anabolic diet or something.

Summary: blame the diet, not the genetics.

Word.
Again.
What about this guy?
Not Indian?

Well, those are highly paid actors who have been skinny most of their lives.

Here’s a video of the 2008 Mr. India Bodybuilding Championship:

As with [almost] everyone, it just comes down to discipline.
(Disclaimer: yes, being the best of the best usually means good genetics in addition to the extreme discipline and sacrifice, but we have advised the OP that everything be 100% accounted for, like nutrition, before blaming genetics.)
