Diet and protein types according to body type

Do you know how to get the most out of your protein according to your body type?

Every body is a world unto itself: a true statement if there ever was one. This phrase is said and repeated ad nauseam; every body, every mind, no two individuals are alike. Each of us possesses unique qualities, and when it comes to eating and planning your training, we need to know what works best for us to get the best results.

Within the types of physiques, we can classify them into three types of somatotypes:

• Ectomorph
• Mesomorph
• Endomorph

And you can't say that we are one or the other; I believe we are a mixture of the three with a tendency towards one in particular.

Which protein is most suitable for your body type?

Let's get to know all the somatotypes, and I'll give you a series of recommendations on the specific protein for each case, so you can identify which of the three is predominant for you.

ECTOMORPH

This is the typical skinny guy or gal who is pure nervous energy. They eat whatever they want and are always thin, even defined! It's very difficult for them to gain weight. The advantage these people have is that they are naturally lean, they can afford to eat more of everything, even at a competitive level, these people will follow a much less strict diet than the rest, they need it.

If this is your type, you need to eat extra calories, not only to gain, but to maintain your weight and muscle mass.

• Eat all kinds of carbohydrates, I recommend rice, cereals, fruits, bread or pasta (I always recommend whole grain).
• As for proteins, those high in fat are better: red meats, oily fish, for chicken and turkey, thighs are better than breast. Eggs, in their case, whole, two to three yolks a day without problems.

Recommended product: Mega Mass 4000, provides energy and high-quality proteins to meet the needs of athletes and the most demanding workouts.

MESOMORPH

"Meso" means "Middle". They are at a midpoint between the Ectomorph and Endomorph. This is the ideal physique. Athletic build, they have an easy time developing strength and muscle mass. Between you and me... as we usually say, the Mesomorph is the type we refer to as having "good genetics."

• Their diet can be varied and not too strict, although they must be careful not to overdo it, as they can also accumulate unwanted fat if not controlled.
• Proteins should be of all types, both leaner ones like turkey or chicken breast, and oily fish or red meats, in this case, twice a week.

Recommended product: The most suitable protein for this body type is Premium Whey, a healthy protein with excellent assimilation, essential for all athletes, both endurance and strength, and for all those who maintain a healthy and balanced diet.

ENDOMORPH

They have a wide bone structure, a tendency to be overweight, and gain weight easily. The advantage these people have when it comes to sports is that they possess great strength and develop muscle easily. So it's just a matter of following an adequate diet for optimal results.

• The carbohydrates I recommend for this type of person are those with a low glycemic index: all kinds of vegetables, potatoes or sweet potatoes, oats, fruits in moderation, especially red berries.
• The type of protein for a person with an Endomorph body type that I recommend are the leanest ones: chicken breast, turkey, egg whites, white fish. Oily fish in moderation, and avoid red meats if possible. And you, which type do you belong to? I think most of us are a mix, but one predominates. The more you know yourself, the better you can design a diet, training, and lifestyle plan.
