The strategies Clearly Defined Personal Trainers use to best help each body type succeed in reaching their goals are listed to help you understand part of the process we use, to best serve your needs. As we stated on the Goal Setting page, most people are not purely an Ecto, Endo or Mesomorph body type. It is more likely that you are in some part a combination of two body types with a stronger tendency towards one. (Such as a Meso-ecto or an Endo-meso body type).
At Clearly Defined our Personal Trainers use nutritional guidance, along with a strong exercise program that targets your specific body type, to help you achieve the best possible results.

The Ectomorph:
- Needs to sleep more
- To help gain lean muscle mass, a variety of power exercises with longer rest periods if needed
- High calorie diet with little cardio
Since it is hard to put bulk on an ectomorph body type, a lean and defined body type results from this type of training.
The Endomorph:
- We want to decrease body fat while maintaining lean muscle mass with this body type. To achieve this we use moderate to low weight and perform high repetitions. This method drops fat quickly while maintaining lean muscle mass. This and the proper exercises help the endomorph body to drop weight and gain symmetry.
- Shorter rest periods to keep the heart rate elevated
- 5 - 6 calorie controlled meals per day with a balanced protein, carbohydrate and fat intake.
- Cardio and cardio based programs
- Try to avoid oversleeping
The Endomorph body type benefits greatly from this type of training and Clearly Defined is dedicated to helping you achieve your goals.
The Mesomorph:
- Combination of power exercises and shaping exercises that promote definition, strength and endurance.
- Nutritional program that focuses on food quality.
Since the Mesomorph body type is naturally gifted, a quality nutritional program and a exercises that promote strength and symmetry work best for this body type.
