In order to plan your diet, workout and cardio plan effectively, you will need to know which body type you belong to.
There are 3 types - Ectomorph, Mesomorph and Endomorph
1) Ectomorph
Ectomorphs have small frame and bone structure. They tend to have high metabolism rate and thus find it very difficult to gain mass. They typical have small shoulders and flat chest.
In order for Ectomorphs to gain mass, they will have to take in alot of calories due to their high metabolism rate. Recommended to do short intensive weights training focusing on major muscles. Reduce cardio training. Eat before going to bed to prevent muscles being broken up at night.
2) Mesomorph
Mesomorphs are the happiest of the three. They tend to have large bone structure, athletic physique and large muscles. They gain and lose fats easily.
They will see the results and benefits of weights training very quickly. As they gain fats easily, they will need to watch their calorie intake. Trainings should consist of both weights and cardio.
3) Endomorph
Endomorph have soft round body. They have slow metabolism rate and will have problem losing fats. They are generally strong and they gain muscles and fats easily.
They certainly need to watch their calorie intake due to their slow metabolism rate. Cardio along with weights training are important to keep a good muscle to fat ratio.
People generally falls in between ectomorph/mesomorph or endomorph/mesomorph but no matter which body type you belong to, you can build a nice body like a pure mesomorph. All it takes is dedicated training and lots of hard work.
