My Experience with bodybuilding #2 Why is my body different?

So you are hanging on lets see about body type and workout now ...
1. Body Type - There are mainly 3 types of body 
                        a.Endomorph
                        b.Mesomorph
                        c.Ectomorph

                       
A.Endomorph-->
The Endomorph tends to gain weight and keep it on. Their build is a little wider than an ectomorph or mesomorph, with a thick ribcage, wide hips, and shorter limbs. 

They may have more muscle than either of the other body types, but they often struggle to gain it without significant amounts of accompanying body fat.

As I am a endomorph I struggle a lot in cutting phase but in gaining muscle phase this type excels.Fat is problem for this type of body.

B.Mesomorph-->

Mesomorph, a human physical type  that is marked by greater than average muscular development, as determined by the physique-classification system developed by American psychologist W.H. Sheldon. 

 Although the Sheldon system of classification does not make absolute distinctions between types, a person is classed as a mesomorph if mesomorphy predominates over endomorphy and ectomorphy in his body build.

 The extreme mesomorph has a square, massive head; broad, muscular chest and shoulders; a large heart; heavily muscled arms and legs; and minimal body fat.

 He tends to develop muscle easily. 

His/her muscular development can usually be distinguished from that of one who has developed his muscles through body-building exercises.

C.Ectomorph-->

Ectomorph, a human physical type  tending toward linearity, as determined by the physique-classification system developed by the American psychologist W.H. Sheldon.

 Although classification by the Sheldon system is not absolute, a person is classed as an ectomorph if ectomorphy predominates over endomorphy and mesomorphy in his body build. 

The extreme ectomorph has a thin face with high forehead and receding chin; narrow chest and abdomen; a narrow heart; rather long, thin arms and legs; little body fat and little muscle; but a large skin surface and a large nervous system. 

If well fed, he does not gain weight easily; if he becomes fat, he is still considered an ectomorph, only overweight.

As I am in college all my friends have different body types.

In my friend circle Two are endomorphs including me, one is mesomorph and one is a ectomorph so I am able to see all their transitions of weight and muscle gain.

Me and my endo friend is 5 ft 8" long in height and the other two are 6 ft which is the difference.

Now the mesomorph guy gains muscle quickly without too much fat.

The ectomorph has to  eat a lot like too much to gain some weight while bulking. 

The endomorph though don't have to bother they can maintain their muscle as their body requires less maintenance.

So simple take the bodytype in consideration and move forward.

 2.Workout

For beginners any type of workout gives results because you are challenging your body in its basic form.

Your diet and sleep shall affect your workout sleep more and eat a lot.

Workout must consist of compound exercises which involve more than one muscle like back workout, chest workout, legs workout, which will give great improvement in development.

Hit each muscle twice a week and give it time to recover in between for maximum results.

For me its always agonist and antagonist training i.e. opposite muscle combination.Figure out yours there are many plans on internet.

My Experience with bodybuilding #1 What to eat?

Today I am starting to record my experience with bodybuilding.

  • My current weight is 88.7 kg of which 30% is fat.I started this on 27 August 2017 when my weight was 75 kg. 
I wanted to start build my body because of my friends company and it became my obsession.

I started with one muscle per day with minimum weights played it safe.

I started getting results and watched numerous videos of what is the best way to build the body. Then I got 3 main tasks to do for bodybuilding
  1. Eat 
  2. Sleep
  3. Work
These three things were basic core of the bodybuilding.

Then further I discovered that  we need at least 6 hrs of sleep after the workout in the night.

I also learned that afternoon sleep doesn't actually help that much in the recovery phase.

Eating is as much important as sleep and workout these three maintain the equilibrium for development.Eating also has further 3 main subdivisions 
  1. a.Carbs b.Starch (Complex Sugars)
  2.  Protein
  3. Fat
Carbs and Starch are complex sugars which are used to fill the muscles. Protein  is used to recover teared muscle.

Good fats (Triglycerides, cholesterol and other essential fatty acids) act as messengers, helping proteins do their jobs.

They also start chemical reactions that help control growth, immune function, reproduction and other aspects of basic metabolism.

There is another aspect for eating i.e. Vitamins and minerals are considered essential nutrients—because acting in concert, they perform hundreds of roles in the body .

 They help shore up bones, heal wounds, and bolster your immune system. 

They also convert food into energy, and repair cellular damage.

Sugar is very harmful for body as it gives a spike and is quickly digested and can have very bad effects on our body see bad effects of sugar  for more information. 

In next blog I shall give more info on workout and bodytype.
