Body Types: Are You an Ectomorph, Mesomorph, or Endomorph?

Type

1. Ectomorph

Appearance: Traditionally described as lean, with relatively long limbs and lower levels of body fat.

Metabolism: Ectomorphs are often described as having a fast metabolism, although body size, activity level, genetics, diet, and other factors all influence energy expenditure.

Potential advantage: Some people with naturally lean builds may find it easier to maintain a lower body weight.

 

Common challenge: Gaining muscle mass can require consistent resistance training and sufficient calorie and protein intake.

Advice: Focus on progressive resistance training.
