Classify Body Types Thread

[PaleoEuropean]

I figured it would make it easier for people to get answers having a single thread since it's not a widely discussed topic.

I'm somewhere neatly between Ectomorph and Mesomorph, I'd say.

[Mr.G]

There is a rating system for somatotypes, as most people are a blend of all 3 types.

I might be, for example:

Endomorph: 3
Mesomorph: 5
Ectomorph: 4

It might be interesting to submit an image or images of a person here, and then try to assign them the 3 number rating.

Here is the corresponding image to demonstrate the extreme, or "textbook", examples of the types, along with their ratings:

[EM78GREENSAVANNAH]

Every body type besides mesomorph is incel. Mesomorphs are the perfect balance of strength, size, and speed.

[Kivan]

Based on the photo, i think i'm Mesomorph.

I’m more of a mesomorph or endomorph(maybe both)

[Ülev]

Paleo-Chad = Endomorph

[Insuperable]

I am meso or meso-ecto.

[Hasien]

I'm Ectomorph but as I'm getting deeper Into my 20s my shoulder are getting wider I would probably end up mesomorph In my 40s.

I think you are endmorph leaning meso. You got wide hips, you would make a good boxer imo.

[PaleoEuropean]

Based on the photo, i think i'm Mesomorph.

those are the extreme variants though. If I have known a few extreme ectomorphs, they can endlessly eat and never gain a pound of muscle or fat, pretty crazy.

[itilvolga]

75% mesomorph 25% endomorph according to the statements above

[PaleoEuropean]

also feel free to post celebrities, athletes etc.

How about Rasputia, under your analysis what body structure does she fit.


Is she meso too?

[itilvolga]

do you have an hour glass figure?

Yes but not an extreme type
Having wide shoulders, strong forearms and thighs and being able to gain and lose weight easily make me meso
Having wide hips and slim wrists and ankles makes me endo

[PaleoEuropean]

Yes but not an extreme type
Having wide shoulders, strong forearms and thighs and being able to gain and lose weight easily make me meso
Having wide hips and slim wrists and ankles makes me endo

I wouldn't put too much stock in gaining and losing weight, that is a bit more complex, same with wrists and ankles, slim ankles and wrists are an extreme trait, generally an ectomorph is going to have wide ankles and wrists. Extreme endomorphs are also short which regular endmorphs are average to tall.

[Linebacker]

As a teenager/early 20s I was a more of a pure mesomorph type. Now in my mid 20s I am beginning to look more endomorphic.

Also ectomorphs are generally average height but extreme ectomorphs are generally taller. You can find more shorter ectomorphs than taller.

textbook extreme mesomorph is very similar to my body type.

yea there is always a gray area between types, the biggest metric imo for regular types is the shoulders and hips. Endomorphs are more squared as were mesos are more traingle.

[stellan]

ectomorph mainly

[IMG[/IMG]
Obesity happens in all types except extreme ecto, would be hard to tell, since she (eddie murphy in drag and a fat suit) is apple shaped. Extreme endo's generally have a pear shaped body. She has what is called an adrenal body type.

I'm 5.10 would you say Is an average height for a ecto.

[PaleoEuropean]

I'm 5.10 would you say Is an average height for a ecto.

yea, probably the best height for a regular ecto that can gain a little bit of fat muscle.

[PaleoEuropean]

ectomorph mainly

If i remember from your post workout pic you are fairly curvy, I would say meso-leaning ecto but that is just from memory so I may be wrong.

[Jana]

I am mesomorph.

Do you have good thick calves and thighs? Most extreme mesos can't get good looking calves or thighs.

What is endo about so called "in shape endomorph"?

She is not endo, she has narrow waist and narrow wrists. Looks much more meso. Endomorph has wide waist and wrists and no hourglass figure at all.

the hips are the most important part, its all about the bone structure. Mesos are more triangle shaped and have narrow hips similar to an ecto, but larger shoulders like a endomorph. Someone with that hip and shoulder ratio is definitely an endomorph.

[Jana]

Not true at all. Mesomorph is only body shape with hourglass shape. Wide shoulders, narrow waist and wide hips. I have all that and I have nothing to do with endomorph lol.
Endomorphs have absolutely no thin waist, their whole body bone structure is wide opposite to all thin ectomorph.

[Luso]

Yeah, I need to see how I’ll look when I put on some good muscle. Just left the gym early (barely started my chest workout), my brother dropped 60 pound dumbbell on his hand... he dropped it and put his hand on his bottle thinking it was his phone and bam blood... think he broke his knuckles.

[stellan]

If i remember from your post workout pic you are fairly curvy, I would say meso-leaning ecto but that is just from memory so I may be wrong.

yeah you're right, definitely a mix of meso and ecto. my body is kind of an intermediate between hourglass and rectangle which i think represents meso-ecto in females?

[Hasien]

Then do It lol never to late .

[KirillMazur]

I think I'm ecto + some meso admix. This pic is a bit old already, pre-covid made. If anything, my thighs are not thick, and if I gain weight, then fat is deposited mostly in the upper body.

There is no inverted hourglass lmao. Both shoulders and hips are wide, waist is narrow. Endomorph women have non of that, it's a fantasy.

Your abdomen above your hips is just fat, mustle and guts, the middle doesnt mean anything its all about the hips and shoulders. That drawings mesomorph is just a skinny endomorph since her hips are just as wide as shoulders. A true meso would never have hips as wide as their shoulders.

See how her hips are even, she is often classifed as borreby and she is a good endomorph, a mesomorph is not going to be square bone wise

Great comment, and to your point, I can throw a hard left hook with just the rotation from my feet to my hips, my arm simply fixed into a hook position.

Using your hips properly is also much less fatiguing than throwing "arm punches".

Sorry to hear about your bro, that really sucks.

I knew a guy who was doing DB bench presses, at the end of his set he was dropping them to the floor and he forgot that he had left other dumbbells under there. Smashed his finger. The tip literally looked like a guy in a cartoon when he hits his thumb with a hammer - smashed and misshapen. And it healed misshapen.

Inferior for today’s time and standards. But, ectomorphs are literally built for endurance running and persistence hunting. Where you tire out the animal into heat exhaustion. That’s literally the whole point of an ecto existing. You would do great at that with your ecto build

I think the best combo (imo), or what I'd wish for, is to be an ecto-meso. Broad shoulders and tall... unbeaten combination. Mostly the tall attribute tho. But idk? Can you be tall and just meso? It is kinda pseudoscience so idk the classifications. I'm happy with my body type as is anyway.

This is me at my most muscular, but this is after 8 years of hard, consistent training. I do not have great genetics. I could never figure out my body type but I am probably a mesomorph with strong ectomorphic traits.

Yea arm punches also just cause so much strain on your back and shoulders; really unhealthy if you are a fighter and doing it a lot. I see it a lot in in UFC among middle-lower weight classes. That's why I always liked heavyweight mma because you get to see some good boxing technique when it comes to throwing. In real fights I have almost always thrown arm punches to not hurt people, I don't recommend it though as in a fight you shouldn't be throwing punches unless you are trying to hurt someone but I am just a nice guy.

Meso women can be curvy for sure, womens shapes are shaped by not just their hips but their thighs and even by fat in the hips. But the principle is the bone structure.
For instance Eva Longoria is a mesomorph, curvy but you can see her hip bones dont make up her curviness, its her thighs and the fat in the hip area.

Yup, you actually reminded me, of me, in your pic. We are about the same height, as I remember, but your shoulders are a little wider and I bet you have bigger upper thighs than me, I'm rather skinny-legged.

Depending on how well my training is going and my goals at the time, I can weigh a anywhere from 160 to 175. In the pic I posted I think I was 168-72 range.

[Mr.G]

you woulda made a good boxer too. did you have trouble tacking on muscle and fat?

YES. I can gain fat more easily than muscle, but I suppose that is most people.

As far as boxing, I sparred a little bit and I was better than average, and I really liked it. Still, I never felt that my body would hold up under the real rigors of boxing long term - I'm too injury prone for that.

[PaleoEuropean]

YES. I can gain fat more easily than muscle, but I suppose that is most people.

maybe you just eating how your body wanted. You look naturally bulky. I would guess endo leaning. were your hips as wide before you started lifting?

[Mr.G]

I might look bulky there but I was a 135 lbs skinny XC runner in high school, and a part of me will always feel like that guy :)

My hips are average or maybe slightly wider, I don't think they changed much with lifting and gaining weight, my upper body changed much more.

To this day it is easier for me to add muscle to my upper body, I struggle with my legs.

[KwaiPl]

Not the best having legs/ hips too big for the waist size, because the only pants that fit are athletic or relaxed fit.

Funny thing though is a lot of boxers throw arm punches , at least atype of arm punch.
Even Mayweather sometimes throws straights that are like between a jab and an arm punch.
I was an amateur boxer for few years in my mid to late teens and in amateur boxing its about point scoring more than knocking people out so guys would throw arm punches if there is an opportunity to land a punch to get the point even if not a very powerful punch.
Point is though you can throw arm punches with good footwork and bodymovement its not same thing as throwing full body punch hook or uppercut like Tyson style but you can throw a punch thats kind of between a arm punch and body movement punch.
When I boxed I had a pretty good jab and hand flow so I used a type of arm punch quite a bit but always in and out footwork movement never standing stiff.

True.

Fighting distance also determines what types punches and how much body weight to use.
Generally when your bending your knees and pivoting your using some level body weight momentum behind your punches.

Nick Diaz would mix in a flurry of handflow type arm punches not powerfully thrown but the sheer volume would wear his opponents down then he would finish them off with a bodyweight thrown overhand or left hook.

One of my favourite boxers the Welsh/Italian Joe Calzaghe had a kind of unusual but effective style.
A lot of people early on accused him of being a slapper but he was undefeated at end his career.
He is putting his body weight and momentum behind most his punches here but he was accused at start of his career of throwing slap punches. You can see some arm punches here and there too but because of his movement they have body momentum behind them too.

slapping someone on the chin can be pretty effective on rare occasions when you can make the jaw move with it and trigger their off switch. The problem comes when they have a good guard ( probably will just hit the cheek or the top of the head) and when they are good at countering. Also with slaps the force can be too even distributed making it just ineffective. Both the Diaz brothers for sure don't rely too much on haymakers but they are smart because they both are pretty skinny and rely on out cardioing their opponents or working submissions. Their weight classes are heavy in submission and ground and pound techniques.

I didn't see Nate v McGregor 2020 but I heard Connor took the decision. I think as they are getting older their style is going to work against them like it did for Anderson Silva, except he was pretty good at those stiff shots.

Yup slaps can drop guys if they land on the ol sweet spot.
One nasty street fighting tactic is to open palm slap the guy right on the ear which can result in broken eardrum which would shutdown most people.

Connor won their second fight on points but it was a close fight.
I bet if they went another 1 or 2 rounds though Nate would either out cardio boxed him or submitted him.

But far as straight out striking goes as much as I like Nate I believe Connor is the better striker.

Conor is either one of the best if not the best, striker in the UFC when it comes to pure striking.

I know good response to that would be to say even Khabib dropped him, but if they just boxed each other no grappling or wrestling allowed for like 5 rounds straight its a different story.

Yea Connor is a great striker. I think most of his mistakes are tactical like you said, he gets into his opponents comfort zone too often. He would be great if he played it old school and just avoided the ground and clinching like the plague. But it's hard for him because he isn't the tallest guy in his respective division. Especially Nick, he is lanky af and has a long reach, nate is more in his realm I think when it comes to reach and style. Nick is all bone too I would hate to be clinched with someone that bony.

What impressed me about Conor is he got out cardioed massively by Nate and then submitted by him in their first fight.
He was able to come back and for the most part got the better of the striking in their 2nd fight he even dropped Nate several times. Nate is a dog though tough as fuck just kept getting back up and in Conors face. Conor did deserve that win by his performance but I dont think he would had the cardio if it went any further.

Man ol school Nick Diaz such a character I luved watching that guy fight, he was entertaining as fuck.
