So, if I understand correctly, what you're saying is that when your body feels as though it's constantly stressed out, whether from exercise or some other stressor, what can happen is that it switches on pathways to develop insulin resistance so that, rather
than putting food stuff into, say, muscle storage or
liver storage, you might actually create new
fat cells or put glucose, you know, that has been converted into triglycerides, et cetera, into
fat cells so that your body has storage to rely upon in times of need even though you're not necessarily in a time of need.

fats are likely to have better blood sugar balance

Also using

A simple way to synthesize all this evidence would be to suggest that in the absence of a major oxidative burden, PUFAs are less likely
than saturated
fats to cause the accumulation of
fat in the
liver because they are more readily burned for energy and thus demand less choline to support their export from the
liver.
In the presence of a major oxidative burden like excess alcohol or iron, they are more likely
than saturated
fats to cause
fat to accumulate in the
liver because they are more prone to oxidation and thus contribute to the destruction of lipoproteins and their entrapment in the
liver.
