I would like to start with 'ectomorphs' and then move on to other body types. I myself am an ectomorph, and I did manage to pack on some healthy muscle through systematic workout
Let us see what kind of work outs would be ideal for ectomorphs to build muscle.Please remember that we are assuming that this is your first exposure to working out, and you are going to start from the scratch.
Okie. As an ectomorph your first and foremost goal would be to increase your testosterone production in your body by stimulating all your large muscle groups. Like I mentioned in my previous blog, one of the main objective of a beginner's workout is going to be, to isolate and control target muscle groups.Please find below a schedule I would recommend for a beginner ectomorph.
Following schedule is given assuming that the 'object' has been doing free hand exercises and is has been doing basic workouts at least for 2 weeks.
