Weight loss plan for different body types

Here, we assure to assist individuals who are serious to remain healthy by providing everything that they may need to know to lose weight and to gain strength.

If you don’t have too much money to spend on weight loss training programs or in other words if you don’t want to waste your hard earned money by joining some helpless training program or if you think the perceptions of your doctor are not enough then it’s your heaven where you can find the solutions of all problems.

What do you say?

You have already joined a gym and you’re hard working and going to be slim in few months. But trust me; this is not going to be helpful. The reason is that every body is unique and the techniques used by many trainers are very common and almost same.
Your trainer may have clear concepts about the functioning of our body but he or she may not have knowledge about the importance of genetics.

Mythology says that God is the creator of humans. That’s true but Genetics also plays a vital role. These are the Genetics because of that not everyone can be ‘Undertaker’ and not everyone can be ‘Bill Clinton’. You can follow the diet schedule of these celebrities but still you will have to do not a little but much more hard work.

Hard work is necessary but smart work is more essential. Smart work simply means gaining more by paying less. And, you can gain more by losing your fat if you exactly know what your body type is.

All the celebrities fall under the category of either Ectomorphs or Mesomorphs and these are the normally the normal people who fall under the category of Endomorphs.

To clearly understand what your body type is, read the following:

Ectomorphs, Mesomorphs, Endomorphs

Somatotyping is a system of separating the human physical types and basically there are three main categories-

1. Ectomorphy or slim type
2. Mesomorphy or muscular type
3. Endomorphy or round type

The theory was developed by American psychologist William H. Sheldon to describe the construct of an individual. Each body responds differently to various dieting and training methods and it’s possible to alter body type by training techniques and particular diet. But before that, it’s incredibly important to know what your body type is.

Ectomorphic

A body type which is sometimes referred to as a ‘banana’ and the perfect example of an Ectomorph is a fashion model.

Ectomorphs are lean, fragile, small shouldered, lightly muscled and usually have a flat chest, a high forehead, thin arms and legs. Ectomorphs are the people who can eat whatever they want and they never become fatty. Gaining and losing fat is lot quicker & easier than other people and Ectomorphs have a very low fat storage that’s why they are thin. These people may have a pencil neck.

It’s a fact that Ectomorphs are born with a super fast metabolism and Ectomorphs tend to prefer Ectomorphic partners.

It’s not a reason to be discouraged if you are an Ectomorphic. An Ectomorph can do anything as anyone else can do. You just need to work a little bit harder. What should you do if you think you are an Ectomorphic-?

EAT, EAT, EAT, EAT, EAT, EAT, & just Eat. This is something that you should love and never try to skip meals. Avoid junk foods. If want to grow your muscles like a bodybuilder then eat more than your capacity and whatever extra after that. Forget about extra fat because you are an Ectomorphic and you don’t need to worry about it. If you can gain fat very easily then you do have the natural power to lose the fat as early as you want. After all, you are an Ectomorphic.

Ectomorphs need lots of carbohydrates which can be gained from green vegetables, Milk & Dairy products, Meat, fruits and they can take eight meals a day. Strength training is what Ectomorphics need most. But training is useful only in case you eat a lot. Several trainings are available that helps to build mass in areas where Ectomorphs are boney. Ectomorphs need to avoid cardio/Aerobic activities as they burn calories that Ectomorphs need to gain weight. List of some good supplements for an Ectomorph-

• Glutamine,
• Protein Powder,
• Methoxy Products,
• Creatine,
• Multivitamins,
• Zinc.

Some famous Ectomorphs-

Lisa Kudrow, Kate Moss, Brad Pitt, Seth Green, Edward Norton, Courtney Cox.

Mesomorphs

One word for Mesomorphs- muscular

A body type which is referred to as ‘hourglass’ for a female and a ‘rectangle’ for man.

This is the ideal body structure and most top bodybuilders are Mesomorphs. Mesomorphs are born athletes and they are more successful in strength and power sports. The Mesomorphs usually have large bones, well defined muscles, hard body, and Thick skin. Mesomorphs can very easily gain muscles and can gain fat more easily than Ectomorphs. The face is long & broad and legs and arms are developed. Actually, Mesomorphs sound perfect and they can eat almost anything. They don’t get fatty still they gain muscles.

But this body type also has some pitfalls. Mesomorphs can have weight on their hips and thighs; still it’s much better than Endomorphs.

Mesomorphs do need a little help and any training program and diet will work for these guys. A good combination of weight training and cardio works best for Mesomorphs.

A Mesomorph needs 1.5 or more grams of protein/per pound of your body weight. As your intention increases to increase muscles, you protein intake may increase as well. Six meals a day is well & good for a mesomorph. Include healthy fats from avocados, olive oil, nuts, linseed oil etc.

Mesomorphs have a fast metabolism and they can lose weight easily than endomorphs.

They should focus on cardio and resistant exercises. Cardio helps to keep weight in check and resistance exercises helps to keep balance between the upper and lower parts of body.

Some exercises that a Mesomorph should adopt:

• Swimming
• Stationary biking
• Shoulder presses
• Jumping jacks
• Jogging

Mesomorphs are always energized. They are strong and don’t need to work hard.

If you are feeling proud as you are a meso, then don’t be over excited because a mesomorphic person also means poor flexibility. If you are a Mesomorphic as well as a careless guy, then it will not take large time to turn you in an Endomorph.

Some renowned Mesomorphs are-

Oprah Winfrey, Mariah Carey, Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, Miss Universe winners

Endomorph

A body type which is sometimes referred to as ‘apple’ and sometimes as ‘pear’.

Endomorphs put on weight very easily and retain it for long periods of time. Endomorphs have soft and fat body, round figure, undeveloped muscles, short neck, and wide hips. Legs and arms of Endomorphs are usually short and they have large head and broad face. Endomorphs are the people who eat much less than Ectomorphs or Mesomorphs even then, they get fat. Endomorphs have the slowest metabolism.

The most important factor for Endomorphs is diet. If an Endomorph says, I’m on dieting, then, it means he/she is gaining more weight. Dieting doesn’t mean weight loss. Diet simply means whatever you eat on daily basis. They are sensitive to carbohydrates and their body has the capacity for very high fat storage.

As an Endomorph, chances are more to become weighty so be extra conscious about your diet. In Endomorphs, majority of weight is centered in the middle of body and they are known as stocky people.

Very bad results of an Endomorphic body-

• Heart diseases,
• cancer,
• diabetes,
• stroke,
• And high blood pressure etc.

There is also a difference between male endomorph and female endomorph.

Male Endomorph: They have fat in their abdomen and this is very dangerous.

Female Endomorph: They collect fat in their hips, legs etc.

If you are an Endomorph, then you should be very careful about your health and strength. Be extra conscious about your diet. Never take junk food. Avoiding sugar will also be very helpful. Eliminate sweets from your diet. All this is required because excessive amount of body weight can let you in the danger of above said diseases.

Some helpful exercises for Endomorphs are-

• Swimming
• Biking
• Cardiovascular activities
• Join a strength training program
• Change your work routine
• Jump Rope
• Push Ups
• Flutter Kicks
• Ankle Wiggles

Endomorphs can be Mesomorphs but you need to be very conscious about your health, your daily routine, your diet and try to do what mesoes do.
