Are you using your body type to your advantage /fit/?

My body is a piece of shit and is designed as best as it can be to prevent me from deadlifting.

I'm doing what I can

Everybody gets fatter when they eat too many carbs you dim-witted fuck.

Why is endomorph always portrayed as a manlet? I'm 6ft tall damn it.

>>42358682
and why is ectomorph always portrayed as tall?
i know more a few manlet ectomorphs

>>42358718
more than a*

Because this system is bullshit and if they showed tall endomorphs and short ectomorphs it would make their theory look even worse.

The whole body type thing is a load of horseshit:

1. Ectomorphs= skinny (if fit= ottermode)
2. Mesmorphs= middle (if fit= Arnold)
3. Endomorphs= tubbies (if fit= big bear powerlifter)


That's just different combinations of bodyfat and total weight. Being an ectomorph or an endomorph isn't some sort of immutable characteristic like having a certain bonestructure.

id say someone like Dmitry Klokov is a better example of a Endomorph than someone like Eddie Hall. Especially since most times they use low BF% diagrams when showing these different body types

Mesomorph master race here. 6'2, phuckable physique, easy lean gains. You jelly faggots?

I don't know what's more retarded, somatotypes or the idiots that think they're real.

Somatotypes are literally just a broad description of given characteristics that all people fall into.
>Wristlet, waistlet, shoulderlet?
Ectofag
>Big boned, big shoulders, big waist?
Endofag
>A genetic mixture of the two above?
Mesofag
The heights are the way they are because on average they should all require the same nutrients to develop, hence the assumption you'd be short if your body spent more resources on width.

I can eat all the olive oil I want but if I eat more than 3-4 servings of carbs I start looking bloated
