How To Choose The Best Workout For An Ectomoprh Looking To Gain Weight

By Jeff Kappel


The most effective or best ectomorph workout isn't one that is consistent and uniform from one day to the next. It's one that evolves, grows, and allows for adjustments according to your workout needs.

It's great to be dedicated to the cause of gaining weight even though you know you're a hard gainer and will find your path to greater muscle mass difficult. However, the one common problem that most ectomorphs face as they begin the ectomorph weight training routine is that they over train which leads to unnecessary and potentially damaging muscle stress.

If you play the work smart role and not the work hard role that most hard gainers play in the gym the odds of you seeing lasting results are much higher. Since most hard gainers don't see results in the first couple weeks they tend to train even harder to get the results, which has an adverse effect on the body by not getting you the results at all.

So now, if you will allow me I would like to provide you with a couple tips that you can implement to avoid some of the common problems ectomorphs have with working out.

1st, this might sound obvious or even beginner, but it's insanely important that you make sure to properly warm up and loosen your muscle groups prior to exercising. So many people just walk in the door of the gym and start working out without warming up. This ends up putting excess strain on your muscles and can actually cause you more harm than good.

2) Don't overlook the importance of cardiovascular training. Most people associate this with losing weight but the benefit for hard gainers is that building endurance with year-round cardio is that you're able to burn fat at rest. This means that the weight you gain will be the lean muscle mass ectomorphs are aiming for.

3) Allow plenty of "rest" time between sets. Heavier weights lead to greater strain for muscles. Longer rest periods allow time for your system to recover from what you've just finished.

4) Make ectomorph strength training sessions brief but have them often. Short sessions that provide high intensity and extremely targeted workouts work best.

Each ectomorph body type is similar, yet different. Make sure that the best workout for you as an ectomorph involves tailoring it to your goals. Eating meals five to six times per day that include complex carbs, low sugar fruit, leafy green veggies, and lean proteins will help fuel your body properly and build that lean muscle.

By taking the advice given to you in this article today, you'll increase the odds of looking how you want to in the mirror. Remember, it's going to take you a little more time so be patient.
