🔄 Most People Are a Mix
Here’s the truth: very few people are purely one type. You might be:
- Ecto-mesomorph: Lean but can build muscle
- Meso-endomorph: Muscular but gains fat easily
- Balanced mix: Traits from all three
Your body can also change over time depending on your habits, age, and lifestyle. That’s why it’s important to use body types as a guide—not a limitation.
