Are you stuck with what nature gave you or can you change your body type? Does your body type even matter?

In this episode, you’re going to learn about the age-old concepts of ectomorph, endomorph, and mesomorph body types.

This episode will dispel myths, offer actionable insights, and provide a roadmap to achieving the body type you desire through targeted diet, workout, and supplement strategies.

So tune in now to learn what body type you have and practical tips on eating, training, and supplementing for each type!
