Different Body Types.. (Ectomorph)

Know What Your Body Type Is:

There Are 3 Different Body Types:

1. Ectomorph - Extremely thin with a very fast metabolism.
2. Mesomorph - Athletically built and usually classified as an easy gainer.
3. Endomorph - Usually overweight, with a very slow metabolism.

Today I am Gonna Discuss the ECTOMORPH Body: Training and Nutrition

DIET

Now the matter of what to eat to feed those injured muscles. I would recommend eating every 3 hours or so. I know from personal experience this might not seem possible, but you must try to eat at least a little more until your body becomes acclimated to the new food intake.

We no longer label our 3 meals as breakfast, lunch, and dinner, because we will be eating at least 5 but preferably 6 meals a day, and they are now known as meals 1 - 6.

Here's a sample diet plan for you:

Meal 1

•  Whole Eggs
  4
•  Whole Wheat Toast
  2 slices
•  Banana
•  Milk

Meal 2

•  Tuna
  1 can
•  Mixed Salad
•  Orange
•  Milk
  1 glass

Meal 3

•  Peanut Butter
  1 tbsp
•  Protein Powder
  2 scoops
•  Whole Eggs
  2
•  Ice Cream
  1 scoop

Meal 4

•  Steak
•  Baked Potato
•  Asparagus
•  Milk
  1 glass

Meal 5

•  Chicken Breast
•  Carrots
  1 cup
•  Olive Oil
  1 tbsp

Meal 6

•  Protein Shake
•  Peanut Butter
  1 tbsp

That should be enough for starters as you will probably have a hard time eating this amount. Drink a minimum of a at least a gallon of water every day. If you find this diet too much to consume slowly make an effort to eat just a little more all the time. Also get as much good sound sleep as you can to aid in recovery.

WORKOUT

Upper body on Monday and Thursday, lower body on Tuesday and Friday.

Rest on the other three days, keep outside activities to a minimum so as not to burn excess calories needed to build muscle.

Here's a sample Workout plan for You:

Upper Body

•   Barbell Bench Press - Medium Grip
  3 sets of 8 reps
•   Bent Over Barbell Row
  3 sets of 8 reps
•   Seated Barbell Military Press
  3 sets of 8 reps
•   Barbell Curl
  3 sets of 8 reps
•   Triceps Pushdown
  3 sets of 8 reps

Lower Body

•   Barbell Squat
  3 sets of 8, 10, 12 reps
•   Leg Extensions
  3 sets of 10 reps
•   Standing Calf Raises
  5 sets of 10-25 reps
•   Crunches
  4 sets of 20 reps

The reason I stress not adding any other exercises to this routine is because, being extremely underweight you do not want to overwork, and you must conserve energy to re-build the torn down muscle tissue.

Stay Tuned Guys I'll be back soon and will discuss the other two body types in details, till then take care, be happy and work hard for that dream body of yours ;)
