Different Body Types... (Mesomorph)

As in my previous Blog I discussed Ectomorph Body Type.

In my this Blog I am gonna discuss MESOMORPH body type: Training and Nutrition..

Same routine, different diet, and 4 to 5 days of cardio of your choice.

I recommend walking on the treadmill. As you get in better shape increase duration, but start off at 20 minutes slowly building up to 30-45 minutes. If this seems like a lot of work it is but as I tell my clients if you can't stay motivated, stand naked in front of a full length mirror, if you don't like what you see this should be motivation enough. I will go a lot deeper into fat loss but here we are just beginning.

1. Eat your food slowly.
