My Actifit Report Card: February 12 2024
Hey guys got up this morning from bed and checked my abs....it still doesn't look like am improving having ectomorphs muscle is really stressful , a lot of effort put to workout is to no avail .....I can't even see any change but I won't stop tho.
Am sure ur wondering what ectomorphs muscles are well
Ectomorphs are one of the three somatotypes (body types) characterized by a lean and long body shape. They often find it challenging to gain weight or muscle mass due to their fast metabolism. When it comes to building muscle, ectomorphs may face certain challenges but can still achieve significant improvements with the right approach.
Did my 20 reps of jumping jacks I know I look like am moving higher than needed but it happened while taking the photo did my 30 wife arms pushup.......I normally go above that when really in that mood you know,
Push-Ups - 4 sets of 20 reps
- Works the chest, shoulders, and triceps.
Squats - 4 sets of 25 reps
- Targets the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes.
Sit-Ups - 4 sets of 20 reps
