Endomorph Male

1. How To Get In Shape AsAn EndomorphMale Training for your body type is essential for physical fitness, especially if you’re an endomorph male. Male endomorphs have bodies that are naturally predisposed to storing extra fat around the belly. They also tend to gain weight rather easily, which makes staying in shape extrachallenging. But just because you’re an endomorph doesn’t mean you can’t be in tip-topshape.

2. Think of Gerard Butler in “300” or Russell Crowe in “Gladiator” – both are famous endomorphs who have managed to transform their stocky bodies through a combination of body type-specific diet, exercise – and, of course, hardwork. To start moving toward your fitness goal, you need to understand your body type. Read on to learn more about the endomorph body type and the best ways to get in shape. What Is The Endomorph BodyType? In the 1940s, American psychologist William Sheldon devised a classification system that divided humans according to their body types – orsomatotypes. Based on the shared physical traits of thousands of people whose photographs he studied, he identified three main bodytypes. Ectomorphs are fine-boned, long, and lean with very little body fat. Mesomorphs are natural-born athletes and shed fat and gain muscle withease. Finally, there are endomorphs, who are often short, stocky, and are prone to weight and musclegain. Endomorphs are characterized by a bigger frames with larger mid-lines and narrow shoulders. Typically shorter than other somatotypes, endomorphs have short legs and arms with wide hips, thighs, and upper arms, as well as slender ankles andwrists. Endomorphs also carry more body fat than other body types due to their slower metabolisms.

3. Before their body has a chance to convert calories into energy, most calories are converted into fat and visibly stored in the lower portion of thetorso. Whatisanendomorphmalebodytype? While all endomorphs store the majority of their body fat in thelower section, female and male endomorphs store fat in different places. The reasons for this areevolutionary.

4. You see, because men tend to pack on more muscle mass than women, they have larger frames. On the other hand, women have wider hips because their pelvis needs enough room to expand during pregnancy andchildbirth. For these reasons, men store most of their body fat in the belly and women around the hips and thighs. While endomorph women are typically pear-shaped, male endomorphs are mostoftenapple-shaped. Do Endomorphs Gain MuscleEasily? With a good diet and regular exercise, endomorphs should have no problem gainingmuscle. And while their bodies are prone to also carrying excess fat, this can be avoided by tweaking macronutrientintake. If you’re an endomorph looking to lose weight or gain muscle, you need to reduce your intake ofcarbohydrates. Ideally, you should be getting no more than 30% of your energy from carbs. The rest should come from high-quality protein and healthy fats (35%each). If you want to accelerate the process, you can bring your carbohydrate intake down to 25% and increase your protein intake to40%. When it comes to exercise, a combination of strength training and cardio should do the trick. The former will help burn calories, while the latter will protect your cardiovascular health and prevent your body from converting calories into body fat.

Of course, as with all other muscles in your body, you will need to find the best exercise for your body type and tweak your diet accordingly while keeping your macronutrient intake under control. You will likely need to begin with cardio to boost your metabolic rate and reduce body fat. In many cases, that should be enough for your abs to startshowing. After that, you can strengthen your core with a combination of knee crunches, toe touches, leg raises, scissor kicks, planks and other ab exercises recommended by your fitnessinstructor.
