Endomorph, ectomorph, mesomorph

The ectomorph is nervous, agitated. It does not introduce dispositions in the sports performances which solicit tough and extended muscular force. The interest for the ectomorph to follow an adapted training can considerably ameliorate its sports capacities. The ectomorph can take the liberty of eating in practice with all food because weighty catch is difficult.

Conclusion: We are all different and we cannot change morph type that we have in the birth which is in a way our “genetic map”, but thanks to regular sports training and adapted feeding, it is completely possible to change it by working seriously.

For instance, a person with endomorphique type thanks to the financial year and feeding is going to lose its excess of bodily grease. Also by training in endurance, it will develop this one and manage to get closer to mesomorphique type. The exercise and feeding can considerably change the visual aspect of our silhouette.

The ectomporph: he is predisposed to thinness, his metabolism is very quick. The ectomorph is often a person in lively constitution. As he has a lot of trouble to take weight (including muscle), he must watch to have a rest enough to protect himself against the overtraining in which he is particularly displayed.

His sessions of training must be the most intense and shortest possible (45 - 60 minutes maximum). The cardiovascular exercises should be very rarely (only for the maintenance of the cardiovascular system).
