Do You know your body Type?

What is your body type? I am not talking about someone saying “Tall and slender.” or “Short and stocky.” or “Big on top, small on bottom.” Yes, these are ways we can describe our bodies and most of us are actually a blend of two different body types. There are actually three types that we will be talking about over the next couple of days. They are ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph. Really I am not making these names up!

Now, did you know that your body type affects your fitness goals? Identifying and understanding your body type and how it response to diet and exercise will allow you to plan your training and nutritional program. No one is exactly the same! Why would we expect one exercise program or diet to work for all of us if our bodies respond differently?
