And female endomorphs who work out tend to be some of the most attractive women (IMHO)_

No comments here from ladies! Women are often endomorphs too – and this info is equally interesting and useful to us!

Hi Vincenzo,

There are sooo many variables, but let me say two things:

1) We all slip at times. I’m just coming off of 6 weeks of mostly travel and I’m not as fit (or ripped) as I should be right now – it is temporary though!

2) In one months time you should be able to make MASSIVE improvements. You don’t need to be perfect to do this. 3-4 months you will be looking even more awesome!

And I’m off to bed so I can hit the gym early!

I’m 6’4, 255 Lbs.
Just got back into the gym and I’m an Endomorph.
My body type and genetics allow me to build muscle fast, though if I don’t balance my diet right, I gain fat (which covers the muscles and makes me look big and soft).
I don’t want to lose too much weight, maybe 20 Lbs, but I do want to make my muscles bigger and stronger.
With the amount of free time I have, I’ve been going to the gym for 2-4 hours/ 4-5 times a week; with an hour of cardio and 1-3 hours of weight lifting.

How long do you think it will take me (a classic endomorph) to look like a superhero?
I’m talking Hercules.

Also, what do you recommend as far as my regiment is concerned?
I eat right, but just enough to maintain my weight.
I’ve been back in the gym for 2 weeks and this will be a long term thing, I just want an idea of how long it should take for a big, already bulky guy like me to go from kinda soft, to hard as stone.

Thanks for your input!

I’m an endomorph and I’m OK, I make gains all night and I eat all day! But I should eat better – thanks for the motivation and recipes Old Chum

“Endomorph’s Diet is harder to get right than their Workouts!” really hits home! My workouts are simply great, but even with shitty workouts (like when I was traveling for an entire month a while back) I make and keep gains. It’s the diet that’s hard for me! Second is the aerobic exercise. I was on the 17th floor of a hotel and I started taking the stairs – exhausting but great!

MY ancestors ate primarily a slow carb diet – no potatoes, rice, etc. in my part of the Mediterranean. Occasional whole grain bread, but not daily. Weight training does burn fat certainly, and muscle even at rest burns fat, but we need some arobic activity as well.
And if you tend towards gaining fat, as my body does, it is even more important!

I like the idea that cardio is important but wont weight training help burn fat as well?

slow carb diet is effective but is it good for long term??

Just thought I’d add that as an endo, my ecto friends are jealous at my muscle, both the relative ease of putting it on and maintaining it. And I am jealous at how my endos can eat everything on the planet seemingly without adding and fat!
