Body Type Quiz: Are you an Ectomorph, Mesomorph, or Endomorph?

What’s Your Body Type? (Ecto/Meso/Endo)

Answer the questions below to get an idea of your dominant body type.

1. How would you describe your overall bone structure and frame?

Small, thin bones, narrow frame (shoulders/hips seem delicate). Medium bone structure, athletic frame, shoulders wider than hips. Large/thick bone structure, wider/stockier frame, hips might be as wide or wider than shoulders.

2. How easily do you gain muscle mass?

Very difficult, progress is slow even with consistent training. Relatively easily, I see noticeable muscle gains with training. I gain muscle relatively easily, but it often comes with fat gain too.

3. How easily do you gain body fat?

Very difficult, I can eat a lot without gaining much weight/fat. Moderately, I gain fat if I’m not mindful, but can lose it with effort. Very easily, I tend to gain fat quickly and find it hard to lose.

4. Describe your natural body shape (without significant weight training or dieting).

Lean, linear, “lanky,” relatively flat chest/buttocks. Naturally muscular, athletic, defined shape (V-shape/hourglass). Softer, rounder shape, potentially stocky or “pear-shaped.”

5. How would you generally describe your metabolism?

Very fast – I seem to burn calories quickly. Moderate / Efficient – Seems balanced. Slow – I feel like I gain weight easily.

6. Think about your body composition. You tend to be naturally:

Very low in body fat and muscle. Relatively muscular with moderate body fat. Higher in body fat, potentially with muscle underneath.

7. Encircle your wrist with your other hand’s thumb and middle finger. How do they meet?

Thumb and finger overlap significantly. Thumb and finger just touch or have a tiny gap. There is a noticeable gap between your thumb and finger.
