Number 2: The Body Type Series: All About Mesomorphs! [Ep. 65]
[Most Popular Re-Release!] I remember being called "man arms" in high school. I had a square, boyish figure, and was naturally athletic. But it never felt feminine, and I spent a large portion of my life trying to train and eat my muscles away. Until I found out God designed me as a mesomorph. A Mesomorph is naturally muscular and compact. Think of soccer players, bodybuilders and sprinters. They pack on muscle easily, have a relatively easy time controlling body fat levels, have a medium to large bone structure and tend to be naturally strong. When they slim down, their muscles really “pop”. On today's episode we'll talk about: Healthy vs. Unhealthy Meso's Why some meso's falsely assume they're an Endomorph The one nutrition component that can be manipulated to maximize a meso's body Training styles that meso's truly excel at The aspect of fitness that meso's should never neglect The ecto-meso hybrid and the endo-meso hybrid My hope with uncovering and learning the different body types is that as you learn the specific ways that we’ve all been created uniquely, you’ll learn to love your own body more…for its strengths and specific abilities. And you can stop being at war with your own body! Resources from this episode: Mesomorph Meal Plan (Four full weeks!) The Strong Mommas Coaching Program - Come join us today!
