Which Body Type Do You Belong To?
What I meant is that everybody - no pun intended there - belongs to one of three body types below and by being aware of that, it makes a huge difference in your weight loss goals:
1) endomorph
2) ectomorph
3) mesomorph
The endomorph has a round body type, meaning he has a round head, round abdomen, rather short arms and legs but fat upper arms and thighs. Male endomorphs look stout, tough and strong. They can gain weight easily, like the mesomorphs.
The ectomorph is thin, with a narrow body and long and thin arms and legs. They usually have little body fat or muscle and do not gain weight easily. Perhaps, some women would desire to be ectomorphs as most female models have typically slender builds. health article template:: font size=-2>[PDF] health article templateFile Format: PDF/Adobe Acrobat - View as HTMLSlow and steady weight loss will encourage your body to ..

Desirable to most males, mesomorphs are strong and have an athletic build. They can develop and build muscle mass easily and can usually eat without too much fear, but are still prone to weight gain.
Its time to look into your mirror and know what body type you have and realize that you cant change it. Theres really no point struggling with what you cant change just like no amount of jumping can change your height. Neither can we change the fact that were Caucasian, Chinese or Indian. Rather, just appreciate and be thankful of who you are and what body type you belong to.

Now that you know your body type, the question is how does it affect your weight loss goals?
If youre an ectomorph and you base your weight loss goals as if youre a mesormorph, you might be unpleasantly surprised by the results.
For instance, as you know that muscle mass burns calories more effectively than other tissues, its helps to achieve weight loss if you join a gym and start some weight training program. However, as you also know that its tougher for an ectomorph to build muscle mass easily, if he/she works very hard alongside a mesormorph, he/she will be very disappointed with his/her results.
Thus, once you realize what body type youre given by the Higher Power, youre in a better position to set realistic goals according to your body type. So, you simply have to adapt your workout to achieve your exercise and diet goals.
Last but not least, we do not belong to one body type; we are a combination of at least two. You have to identify your primary type. If a man in his forties is quite big, we may mistake him to be a mesomorph because he has put on weight over the years. You might be shocked to realize that he was a skinny and thin fellow in his younger days as hes primarily an ectomorph.
TIP: Now that you know your body type, look for someone with the same body type as you whom you admire his/her physical condition and work towards a similar physique!
