They find it quite easy to gain and lose weight.
They tend to have a bit of a tougher time gaining muscle than their Mesomorph counterpart but it is still a favourable somatotype for developing one’s body. Meso-Ectomorphs are predominantly Mesomorphs with Ectomorph traits. MESO-ECTOMORPH A meso-ectomorph has a medium-large bone structure, medium-large muscles and a naturally athletic physique. Ecto-mesomorphs should eat before bed to prevent muscle catabolism during the night. Supplements are definitely recommended when looking to gain musle. Workouts should be short and intense focusing on big muscle groups. Ecto-meso’s need a huge amount of calories in order to gain weight but do NOT need a drastic deficit to lose weight. They have a fast metabolism which burns up calories quickly. Small “delicate” frame and bone structure Can build more muscle than a true “hardgainer” Flat but defined chest Medium shoulders Thin Lean muscle mass Finds it hard to gain weight Can have well built legs Relatively fast metabolismĮcto-mesomorphs find it somewhat difficult to gain weight. Typical traits of an Ecto-mesomorph: Generally, they are built Tall and lean with more muscle mass than a true Ecto but still less than a True Mesomorph or Meso-Ecto. Usually supplements may not be needed as long as the person has a high protein intake in their diet.ĮCTO-MESOMORPH An ecto-mesomorph is predominantly Ectomorph with some Mesomorph traits. To keep fat gain to a minimum, endomorphs must always train cardio as well as weights. Unfortunately, a large portion of this weight is fat not muscle. When it comes to training endomorphs find it very easy to gain weight. Soft and round body Gains muscle and fat very easily Is generally short and “stocky” Round physique Finds it hard to lose fat Slow metabolism Typical traits of an Endomorph: Endomorphs find they are naturally strong in leg exercises like the squat. Muscles are strong, especially the upper legs. Endo’s are usually of a shorter build with thick arms and legs. Usually a combination of weight training and cardio works best for mesomorphs.ĮNDOMORPH The endomorph body type is solid and generally soft. This means they must watch their calorie intake. The downside to mesomorphs is they gain fat more easily than ectomorphs. Gains are usually seen very quickly, especially for beginners. The mesomorph body type responds the best to weight training. Typical traits on a Mesomorph: Īthletic Hard body with well defined muscles Rectangular shaped body Strong Gains muscle easily Gains fat more easily than ectomorphs They are naturally strong which is the perfect platform for building muscle. Mesomorphs are the best body type for bodybuilding. MESOMORPH A mesomorph has a large bone structure, large muscles and a naturally athletic physique. Generally, ectomorphs can lose fat very easily which makes cutting back to lean muscle easy for them. Ectomorphs should eat before bed to prevent muscle catabolism during the night. Ecto’s need a huge amount of calories in order to gain weight. They have a fast metabolism which burns up calories very quickly. Small “delicate” frame and bone structure Classic “hardgainer” Flat chest Small shoulders Thin Lean muscle mass Finds it hard to gain weight Fast metabolismĮctomorphs find it very hard to gain weight. Typical traits of an ectomorph: Shoulders tend to be thin with little width. Usually ectomorph’s have long thin limbs with stringy muscles. Ecto’s have a light build with small joints and lean muscle. ECTOMORPH An ectomorph is a typical skinny guy.
