  2. Mesomorph: Mesomorphs have a more athletic build, a moderate amount of body fat, and a higher muscle mass with medium-sized bone structure and can build muscle relatively easily.Β 
  3. Endomorph: Endomorphs have a larger body frame and a higher amount of body fat. With a slower metabolism, they can find it more challenging to lose weight than other body types.
