Body types.

Author: Ian 08/28/2009

There are many different body types and these days most are out of shape. But underneath all the body excess and clothing our bodies all fit into one of three categories.

The three main types:

ectomorphs – slight build
mesomorphs – muscular
endomorphs – excess bodyweight

The basic body type you may be is greatly outside of our control and much more due to your DNA and our childhood lifestyles than anything else. We are pretty much how we are however we can fine tune ourselves and make adjustments.
To make any changes to your body shape the basic groundwork is the same.
Watch what you eat and choose fresh, low fat and healthy foods
Avoid consuming large amounts of toxins such as alcohol and caffeine
Undertake regular exercise which should include elements of cardio, strength training and flexibility.

Dead legs

Yesterday I played football strangely enough for the police force as I have a friend who is a police man and they were short of one or two good players, so he drafted me in for the day, we played at least 6 matches and got knocked out in the quarter finals, half way through the tournament I got clattered on my thigh and my leg went numb but adrenaline and football got me through the pain, the problem is today I have woken with a dead leg which makes me feel like my thigh bone has snapped and I have got to go and play football again today for 2 hours but I’m hoping the adrenaline will take me through it again.
