Or if they want to combine the two, that'll work as well

The second part of what he said is a factual statement devoid of context, which makes it irrelevant to the idea of "making a point".
The first part of his statement is a ridiculous assumption that doesn't take into account any of the reasoning as to why people might gain weight WITHOUT being overly inactive or having a bad diet, which is eminently possible even when going about normal life, to say nothing of medical conditions that might contribute to the same.
