Definition: This body type is characterized by a stocky build, wide hips, and the annoying tendency to easily store body fat. Endomorphs may also have more internal fat around the organs, which makes fat loss more difficult than other body types. People with this body type will want to pay close attention to their diets and make sure to follow a complete exercise program that includes cardio and strength training.
