Question:
Can an Endo convert into an Ecto??
^^post^^
im a noob haha
whats this whol endo and ecto i keep reading??
i think ectos are like me where ur wrists are like 2inches wide
and endos are basically like, every athletic person
endo, ecto meso is all to do with bone structure, number of fat cells and metabolic rate.
If you are referring to structure, yes, of course. Lose bodyfat and you will have a mesomorphic structure. You wouldn't want an ectomorphic structure anyhow.
If you are referring to metabolism, then again, yes, but to a limited extent. As you add muscle, your metabolic rate will increase and it will be easier to keep the fat off. You will probably never have it as easy as an ectomorph though.

and endos are basically like, every black person Ecto - tough time gaining weight and a relativly small frame
Endo - slow metabolism, rounder body type, easier time gaining weight
Meso - Ideal bodytype for weight training, larger bone structure, easy to add lean muscle

you're body "type" will not change although you may reshape your body to resemble that of a different body type....if that makes sense. In other words, you can diet to look like an Ecto although you will be eating less calories (due to a slower metabolism and genetics) than a true ecto. would be eating just to maintain their weight (faster metabolism)
so how do i know what i am?

and endos are basically like, every black person really not sure what that means however, I personally had a good friend transform from endo to ecto. (Endo generally meaning the person is fat. Ecto generally meaning the person is extremely skinny.)
So to answer your question....absolutely! I really dont know why you would want to. IMO my friend kind of looked sick because he went from one extreme to the other. Not sure whether its very healty either.
My advice would be to find a clean diet that suits you, exercise very regularly, (maintain a strict diet and exercise schedule) and transform into a mesomorph, which is a healthy athletic build.

If an endo loses weight that doesn't make him an ecto.
Its about metabolism/bone structure and ability to gain/lose weight (also personality--- some people theorize)
likewise, an ectomorph that gains weight is not now an endomorph.

Your body type is determined by genetics, not your amount of fat.
You can have a fat ectomorph (the typical skinny fat sort of person).
Some easy characteristics are:
Endomorphs - Wide Shoulder and wide hips. Shaped like an apple. Generally have fat around the mid section and torso.
Ectomorphs - Narrow shoulder, narrow hips. The stereotypical lanky guy.
Mesomorphs - The naturally athletes! Shaped like an inverted V, with long lats and wide shoulders, couple with narrow hips (i.e. lucky bastards!!)
Having said that, you can also have mixes of the three types. For instance, an ecto-endo could have the narrow shoulders of an ecto and wide hips of the endo, making the person look like pear shaped.
Different mixtures are good for certain sports. For instance, someone who is mostly endo with some meso makes for the best powerlifter, due to the natural strength of an endo and the athletic ability of a meso. Another example is pure meso for a gymnast, or a pure ecto for a rowing cox!!!
4 Attachment(s) Hey i didn't want to start my own thread but can anyone confirm my body type? I'm guessing a endo/meso mix. I have a V or at least a mix of a V and U. Also anyone care to take a guess at my body fat? 13-14% my guess

Also anyone care to take a guess at my body fat? 13-14% my guess my hip bones kinda flare out. does that make me more endo or once i gain more upper body muscle it'll make the hip bones not as noticeable?
alright am i meso or endo?
Make the best out of what you have.
Make the best out of what you have. i plan on it but i'd still like to know what body type i have. Oh and approx my body fat.
no
hmmm, is it possible to be an ecto who just happened to get fat? as i've cut down i've noticed my bone structure to be smaller then that of most mesos and i'm getting kinda lanky (have really long arms)
Who care what your bodytype is?
Eat what you need to eat for your goals.
Train hard.
Forget the useless details.
