Somatypes and Fitness Training

Ectomorph
Delicately built; thin and wiry. Can strength train without gaining much muscle mass.
"The ectomorph's first objective is gaining weight and muscle mass.Strength and endurance will need to be developed and muscle mass develops very slowly. Stay with the basic exercises and include power moves that build maximum mass. Do an entire training workout, but take longer rest periods if you need to. Take in more calories than you are accustomed to and use weight-gaining and protein drinks to supplement your food intake. Try not to expend to many calories by keeping cardio to a minimum saving them for muscle building" (http://www.femalemuscle.com/fitness/bodytypes.html).

Mesomorph
Strong and heavy set; athletic. Can gain muscle mass easily.
"The mesomorph will find it easy to build muscle mass but will have to include a variety of exercises in their program so that the muscles develop proportionately and shapely rather than bulky. A combination of heavy power moves and a variety of shaping exercises and a more varied for better quality, proportion and symmetry of the physique. Long workouts and short rest time. The mesomorphic type responds well to training so super-long sessions are not needed. A balanced diet with a good amount of protein and maintain an even calorie level all time" (http://www.femalemuscle.com/fitness/bodytypes.html).

Endomorph
Softer and rounder; gains weight easily. Needs exercises that burns calories quickly.
"The endomorph will not have much difficulty building muscle but will have to be concerned with losing fat weight and be careful not to gain the weight back. High-set, high-repetition training with short rest periods to burn off as much fat as possible. Additional aerobic exercise for calorie consumption. A low-calorie diet that contains the necessary nutritional balance with the minimum amount of protein, carbohydrates and fats. Make sure that you are getting the right amount of vitamins and mineral supplements the body" needs(http://www.femalemuscle.com/fitness/bodytypes.html).
