If you’re a mesomorph, your body type naturally leans toward a muscular, athletic frame, which allows you to gain muscle and lose fat more easily than other body types. But that doesn’t mean you can coast through your fitness journey without any effort; for mesomorphs, balance is the key.
It’s important to stick to a well-balanced diet that includes a healthy mix of proteins, complex carbs, and fats; like chicken, fish, sweet potatoes, leafy greens, and nuts.
Mesomorphs respond well to both strength training and cardio. A combination of compound lifts, like squats and deadlifts, along with moderate cardio such as running or cycling, will help you maintain lean muscle and burn fat. Adding in HIIT workouts a few times a week will keep your metabolism high and prevent plateaus. But be careful not to overtrain, mesomorphs tend to pack on muscle and fat quickly.
