Ectomorphs are characterized by a thin and fragile physique, with little body fat or muscle mass. This body type tends to have a slender frame, narrow shoulders and hips, and a fast metabolism. Endomorphs, on the other hand, are characterized by a rounder, softer physique with a higher percentage of body fat and less muscle mass. Mesomorphs are characterized by a more athletic, muscular build.
