Diet & Fitness Makeover By Body Type!

Your look-great feel-great diet and workout plan.

Every one of us has a unique biological blueprint that pretty much determines our shape and size. Although we will benefit from regular exercise and a healthy diet, eating plans and workouts aren't "one-size-fits-all". This is where knowing which body type you are can help you customize your diet and fitness regime to make the most of your natural physique.

According to the theory of somatotyping (which was first studied by American psychologist William Sheldon in the 1940s), the human body can be classified into three main body types: Ectomorphs, endomorphs and mesomorphs. Check out these diet and fitness makeover tips based on these body types.

Body type:

Ectomorphs

Characteristics: Petite, small-boned and generally thin, ectomorphs' shoulders are of nearly the same width as their hips. They generally have delicate bone structures, and most of them have a diifcult time gaining weight, whether it's fat or muscle.

Famous Ectomorphs: Kate Moss, Thandie Newton and Kylie Minogue

Your goal

Your objective is to build and improve your overall muscle tone.

  • Diet Strategy: Because ectomorphs have a very high metabolism, it's important that you do not skip meals! If you wish to gain a little more feminine curves, go on a diet where you can have all the rice, bread, pasta and potatoes you want. Meals are best taken at short intervals and in larger-than-usual servings.

  • Training Strategy: Build up muscle with two to four sets of weight training exercises per body part, using moderate-to-heavy weights. Supplement this with 20 minutes of cardio exercise thrice a week to keep your heart healthy.
