Muscle Building & Weight Loss Tips for Ectomorph, Mesomorph &
endomorph training.
Not exact matches
With time and proper
training and dieting regime, people belonging to ectomorph and
endomorph body type can take on some mesomorphic characteristics.
For example,
endomorphs which usually have slower metabolism will be able to
train 5 - 6 days per week.
While muscular mesomorphs and pear - shaped
endomorphs will both benefit from cardiovascular
training for fat loss,
endomorphs often benefit from longer bouts of low - impact steady - state cardio, which can be incorporated into most days of the week; mesomorphs, given their more muscular and athletic build, cope well with time - efficient HIIT.
-- Starting macronutrient ratio: 30 - 40 % carbs, 30 - 35 % fats, 30 - 35 % protein — Carb requirements: Low — Carb intake timing: All carb - rich foods need to be consumed one to two hours pre / post workout — Exercising:
Endomorphs have difficulties losing the excess fat via diet only, so a sound
training plan is an absolute must.
With the correct
training and nutritional approach,
endomorph athletes can truly optimise their physic and athletic performance, effectively harnessing their natural strength.
Professional
endomorph bodybuilders supplement their
training with cardio, which those from the other body type subsets won't necessarily require.
Due to their propensity towards a higher body fat ratio,
endomorphs would benefit most from emphasising cardio in their
training in order to minimise weight gain from fat.
For example, a person with an ectomorph body type (Someone who is slim and finds it hard to gain weight) should both
train and eat completely different to a person with an
endomorph body type (Someone who has a large frame and gains muscle and fat easily) even if they both have the same muscle building goal.
Fat Loss - 3 to 6 times per week
Endomorph - 3 to 6 times per week High - intensity
Training - 2 to 3 times per week Weight
Training - 3 times per week
Endomorphs will be carrying a lot of muscle and potentially fat, and will be more able to maintain size when performing cardio
training.
I have an
endomorph body type and I currently do steady state cardio running 3 times a week and HIIT once a week along with two strength
training days (arms and abs / legs and abs).
I am an
endomorph (5» 3, classic pear shape) and have recently began incorporating HIIT
training into my treadmill workout.
I lost about 13 kg and now I still eat well and workout to stay health but also cause I wan na lose about 4/5 kg I'm an
endomorph and I recently have changed my fitness routine: I do 2 - 3 times per week HIIT on treadmill and after that a 15 - 20 minute abs workout and 2 - 3 times resistance
training (legs, arms) followed by a 15 - 20 minute power walk; I usually take 1 - 2 rest days / week.
Endomorphs should also do some resistance
training and their workouts should be intense to try and burn lots of calories.
So if we are
endomorphs and do walking for cardio, what do we do for resistence traininng or muscle
training?!
