  • Are Ectomorphs strong? Theres a reason why a
    skinny ectomorph may be able to lift an
    impressive amount of weight and seem quite
    strong. The ectomorphic body type is
    characterized by being naturally thin, in that
    this person eats more than what their body
    suggests.

4
  • How strong can an ectomorph get? Ectomorphs start
    off with less muscle mass, but we catch up
    quickly. While were underweight, were often
    able to build muscle at a tremendous pace, often
    gaining 20 pounds in just our first couple
    months of lifting, and up to forty pounds within
    our first year.

5
  • Is being an ectomorph good? Ectomorphs have a
    fast metabolism, which can be both a boon as well
    as a bane. However, with age, their metabolisms
    will slow down, primarily due to low muscle mass,
    which can result in an unhealthy gain in body
    fat. The best diet for an ectomorph is one that
    is higher in carbohydrates and calories.

6
Do Ectomorphs have good endurance?
  • Ectomorphs tend to excel in endurance-type
    activities, so its not surprising that many
    prefer cardio training over weight lifting. The
    key to stimulate muscle growth is to do the
    minimal amount of cardio required for general
    health. Three times a week for 30 minutes is
    recommended.

7
Can Ectomorphs get jacked?
  • While ectomorphs can achieve a lean, shredded
    physique, it will take a lot of consistent
    training and nutrition to achieve it. Become a
    consistent machine with a well-developed training
    program will.

8
Are Ectomorphs more intelligent?
  • According to one study endomorphs are likely to
    be perceived as slow, sloppy, and lazy.
    Mesomorphs, in contrast, are typically
    stereotyped as popular and hardworking, whereas
    ectomorphs are often viewed as intelligent, yet
    fearful.

9
What foods should Ectomorphs avoid?
  • They should also avoid highly processed
    carbohydrate foods like chips and candy. Such
    foods will break down very quickly. This leads to
    hunger pains shortly after consumption and then
    overconsumption of excess calories. For
    ectomorphs, this can result in a skinny fat
    physique.

10
What are benefits of Ectomorphs?
  • An ectomorph typically has longer limbs, narrower
    hips, narrower shoulders, kind of lanky.
    Advantages These longer limbs are amazing at
    hiding body fat that you may gain. Youre
    essentially naturally lean.
