QUICK IDEA ABOUT 3 HUMAN BODY TYPES : WHAT’S YOURS TYPE?

HUMAN BODY TYPES : WHAT’S YOURS TYPE?

 

According to anatomy our bodies can be classified in three human body types. In this post we will tell you about how to identify your body type and how to improve your fitness according to their body type. Your body will fall into one of the three typical human body types:

 

1. ECTOMORPH
2. ENDOMORPH
3. MESOMORPH

1. ECTOMORPH HUMAN BODY TYPES

 

Ectomorphs have thin wrists, long limbs, gaining weight and gaining muscle is the major problem they face no matter how much they eat. This is because ectomorphs are good at processing carbohydrates into energy and your fast metabolism means that you burn off fat easily.

And the reason why ectomorphs struggle to gain muscles is that their fast twitch muscle fibers are underdeveloped. To become more muscular, ectomorphs need to focus on compound exercises(like dead lifts, bench press, squats and bent over rowing) and intense workout sessions to increase release of growth hormone( HGH ). Ectomorphs can take rest up to 2 to 3 minutes between each set.

And daily calorie needs are about 3000 calories and diet must be high in healthy fats,high in  carbs and protein. Ectomorphs need to keep the duration of their workout maximum of 1 hour to 1.5 hours. They should keep low workout volume which means 12-14 sets per workout. Also 3-4 full body workouts in a week  are sufficient enough to gain muscle. Ectomorphs can skip cardio to conserve calories. You should keep your rep range between 8-12 repetitions per set.

The dead lift is your best friend: people with long arms should find it relatively easy, and it uses the entire body so it’ll pack on mass. Although squats and benching will do wonders for your physique, taller ectomorphs might find them difficult.

2. ENDOMORPH HUMAN BODY TYPES

Endomorphs have thick wrist, short limbs, narrow waist and broad structure that’s why they look more aesthetic. Endomorphs can gain muscle easily but they can’t lose fat easily. Endomorphs are adept at storing fuel, with muscle and fat concentrated in the lower body.

Endomorphs need to do compound exercises as well as they need to increase their workout intensity and workout volume, so they also need to do isolation movements, cable movements and machine movements. Rest period for Endomorphs will be around 60-90 seconds between each set. Unlike Ectomorphs, Endomorphs need to keep their workout volume high for that you should keep you rep range between 15-20 repetitions and also they should keep 16-20 sets per workout.

Try to minimize the effects of the stress hormone cortisol by getting plenty of sleep and avoiding over-training. And Endomorphs can also perform 4-6 full body workouts. They should also perform low intensity cardio up-to 30 minutes for better results. They should eat equal to their maintenance calories and keep your dietary fat minimum 10-15% of your total calories, their protein intake must be high.

3. MESOMORPH HUMAN BODY TYPES

 

Mesomorphs are more aesthetic here, they have broad shoulders, they have good overall width and their waist is very narrow. Muscle gain and fat loss is quite easy for Mesomorph. Which generally results in bad and short workouts. And they won’t often train as hard as they can, also not caring about diet and nutrition in such conditions,  you need to follow progressive workout programs which will make you stronger and will keep you in shape.

You will need to eat plenty of whole grains but limiting your total dietary fat.Mesomorphs respond well to creatine,It’ll aid their recovery from athletic workouts and help them work out harder.Although the explosive nature of athletic workouts minimizes the eccentric portion of your moves, which helps stave off muscle soreness, some light movements on your rest days will help get the blood flowing and keep you fresh.
