Mesomorph Tips
Based on your results
Your Body Type Profile
You are primarily Mesomorph (0% ecto, 70% meso, 30% endo). This influences how your body responds to diet and exercise.

Quick Answer
Body types: Ectomorph (slim, hard to gain weight), Mesomorph (athletic, gains muscle easily), Endomorph (stocky, gains weight easily). Most people are a combination. Use our calculator to find your dominant type.
Key Facts
- Three main body types: ecto, meso, endomorph
- Most people are combinations
- Body type influences training approach
- Nutrition strategies differ by type
- Can't change bone structure
- Can optimize training for your type
Frequently Asked Questions
Ectomorph (naturally thin, fast metabolism), Mesomorph (naturally muscular, athletic build), and Endomorph (naturally larger frame, slower metabolism). Most people are combinations. These are general tendencies, not destiny.
Your skeletal structure is genetic, but body composition (muscle/fat) is highly changeable. An endomorph can be lean and muscular; an ectomorph can build significant muscle. Diet and training matter more than genetics for most goals.
Somatotyping (body type science) has limitations - people don't fit neatly into categories. Use it as a starting point for nutrition/training, not as a limitation. Individual response varies significantly regardless of type.
Three numbers representing endomorph-mesomorph-ectomorph on a 1-7 scale. 2-5-3 means low endomorph, high mesomorph, moderate ectomorph (athletic with some lean tendency). 7-1-1 would be extreme endomorph.
Body type can inform training approach but shouldn't dictate it. Ectomorphs may need more calories and less cardio. Endomorphs may benefit from more cardio. Mesomorphs respond to variety. All types can achieve similar results with proper programming.
