Body types, an introduction

Another friend gave me a great idea to do a multi-part discussion on body types and how to train correctly for each type. So tonight I am going to start it off with an introduction.

There are 3 body types. It does not matter about gender, age, race or whatever else. If you are human you fit into 1 of the 3 or a mix of 2 of them.

Endomorph -

If we look at the above picture you can see that typical Endomorph tends to be:
Round
Easier time gaining muscle
Slightly harder time losing fat
Heavier set
Pear shaped

Mesomorph -

Muscular/Atheletic look
Easy time losing fat and gaining muscle
Considered the "ideal" body type

Ectomorph-

Slim to frail
Insanly easy time losing fat
Almost impossible to gain and maintain muscle
Very slender

Every single person on the planet will either fit into one of these three types or is a hybrid (Ecto-Meso or Endo-Meso). If anyone tells you they are a hybrid of Ecto-Endo, they likely do not know what they are saying and are probably confused with the names of the types.
