Weightloss and Exercise.

WHAT IS THE BEST EXERCISE FOR YOUR BODY TYPE. 


 To loose weight you need to know your body type so as to know what exercise to focus on and what to eat. Reading this will help you figure out your body type and exercise for you. 
There are three different body type which are Ectomorph, Mesomorph, and Endomorph.

ECTOMORPH
-Not muscular but can be skinny or fat(however this might be having high body fat and still have small size)
-Can overeat and yet gain a bit of weight( don't gain weight really fast) 
-Hard to put on muscle mass: you would have noticed this if you weight train. But the best exercise will be resistance training to build strength.( lift weights way heavy for you and do less cardio). Rest longer during exercise and can have up to 3 resting days in between sessions.
- Work different muscle group at the same time.
-Eat healthy quality fat such as avocado rather than butter and moderate protein intake, with carbohydrate .
-Snack less and eat light dinner.

MESOMORPH:  genetically blessed 🙂
-Can gain muscle mass really quickly and lose weight really fast.
-Strong and mostly athletics
-Best workout will be endurance and HIIT(high-intensity interval training). Adding in yoga or Pilates will help you lengthen with strength. Benefits of this HIIT workout is that you don't get to pay for GYM. You can workout at home. Check out HIIT WORKOUT on YouTube.
-Eat moderate carbohydrate, pre-dinner snack is fine, eat healthy quality fat...

ENDOMORPH
-Store fat easily; naturally curvy, short and will gain weight easily, due to slow metabolism.
-Exercise daily and move more but a day a week should be allowed for resting.
-Best exercise will be HIIT workout, Crossfit workout, weight training, and moderate endurance training(cardio). 
- Focus on completing your workout in short period and have only a little resting time. Always keep an elevated heart rate all through so as to burn fat. Do more repetition of lower sets with low sets. E.g 3sets of 8 reps push up. 
-Limit carbs intake but get more from vegetables and eat healthy quality fat  and protein to gain muscle and lose body fat.
- Best to eat healthy and low-fat breakfast after 45 mins or an hour of  waking up in the morning. 
-Skip snacking before workout and after.
-Can snack noon time.
-It is important for this group to be aware of their calorie intake.
