The endomorphic bodies

In the following, we will go into the generalities concerning the study of endomorphic bodies, their characteristics and peculiarities. The endomorphic bodies have complex metabolic characteristics, and that is why they are grouped in a separate classification. It is important that if you have this type of body, you have the necessary information to face the difficulties of it, in reference to muscle mass and weight loss.

Throughout this guide we will review some of the basic characteristics that distinguish this body type and some tips for keeping their body weight under control.

Endomorphic body: Endomorphic bodies are a classification of body types, which groups together those subjects that due to their biological characteristics and metabolism type, tend to gain weight easily and present problems to work their muscle mass. These are generally robust bodies, which lack toned muscles and have large fat reserves. Their metabolism is slow, their limbs are usually not very long compared to their torso and they have a certain ease in maintaining their acquired muscle mass. Increased body fat: As we said, endomorph bodies tend to increase their body fat, this is due, roughly speaking, to the presence of a slow metabolism and the ability to store fat as a deposit in case of emergency. These characteristics in primitive times could help you survive, understanding that food was not something guaranteed, and that we could not count on the security of having a plate of food every day, the endomorphs developed the ability to create fat deposits as an emergency for periods of scarcity. This ability is meaningless today, our eating habits have changed and it is normal for us to eat on a daily basis. Muscle mass: Muscle mass is an interesting characteristic of endomorph bodies. Although at the beginning it is usually somewhat difficult to obtain muscle mass, once it begins to increase, the body's own fat reserves allow the maintenance of the muscle volume achieved to be sustainable over time. Weight control: People with endomorphic bodies need to be aware of their body weight, any carelessness can cause an uncontrolled increase in it. That is why it is recommended to maintain intense training sessions, focused on obtaining muscle mass. The increase of muscle mass is the best tool that these people have to combat unnecessary fat reserves in the body.

At the same time, we recommend the intake of a balanced diet, very rich in proteins and low in carbohydrates. This will help to maintain a healthy lifestyle and keep away from fat accumulation.

By carefully planning our diet, and breaking with sedentary lifestyles, we can maintain a healthy and athletic body, regardless of the biological tendencies that are present.

The important thing here is to keep the metabolism active, we should not allow passive routines to take over our day to day life. A combination of strength exercises and a healthy, low-carbohydrate diet is enough to achieve the body we desire. By taking advantage of the benefits that endomorphs have in terms of maintaining muscle mass, we are able to focus this ability to create fat reserves solely on the benefit of our muscles.
