subject: Skinny People Have Difficulty Gaining Muscle [print this page] Are you skinny? Have you already tried everything and still find it difficult to gain muscle mass? Don't worry it's not your fault. Don't think that you're not giving it your 100 percent. You're skinny simply because your body says so. Below are the different body types a person may have. Lets have a look at how they are different from each other.
Endomorphs are the ones that have really huge arms and torsos. The only problem is they are shorter than the average person. This describes people who have slow metabolism. They get heavy so quick that they make perfect body builders.
Another body type is the mesomorphs. They are also classified as the naturals. They could go to the gym so their bodies would look even better, but they can also rely solely on their metabolism to keep them fit and healthy. These are the ones that have movie-star bodies. Their bodies look so good that others tend to get envious.
Ectomorphs are people whose bodies have very quick metabolism thus making it hard for them to build their body. The main reason why they have such a hard time is because their bodies are programmed to lose weight fast. Body builders refer to these guys as the hard-gainers because of the fact that they hardly gain weight. Examples of these are musicians who have long and thin bodies.
If you observed, metabolism is vital to understanding the different types of the body. Metabolism is responsible for storing or removing fat from our body. The use of energy is also being controlled by metabolism. A fast metabolism will help you lose a lot weight and in the process would make you look like a stick, while having a slow metabolism makes you huge and building muscle will be pretty easy for you.
As conclusion, you should just carefully monitor how long and how hard you train and the type of foods you eat. When you have successfully controlled your metabolism it will be easy for you to gain weight no matter what type of body you have. Eating correctly and exercising regularly will give you good results in no time.
