Irked By Your Female Body Shape?Don't Be! Toning Exercise Tones Up Shape of Your Muscles Plus Giving You..........


Feminine Alluring Curves that Exude Sensuality and Sex Appeal!

Your female body shape somewhat determines your effort to tone your muscles .

And I need to stress here that your female body type determines to a certain extent, the results of your toning workout.

Granted you cannot grow new muscles, nor can you add to your height or alter your basic body shape.

But you can tone, "shape" and strengthen your muscles, whatever your body shape or body type is.

We'll see how this is so.....

The 3 Most Beautiful Body Shapes

Essentially, female body shape falls roughly into 3 main types:

  • Endomorph (or endo for short or pear-shaped body)
  • Ectomorph (or ecto for short)
  • Mesomorph (or meso for short)

Sounds complicated?

Don't worry, I'll take you breeze through them one by one.

The Endomorph

If you've this female body shape, you tend to:

  • Have curvy body and large bones
  • Have hips that are wider than your shoulders
  • Have small to medium bones, limbs that are shorter in relation to your trunk
  • Have body fat deposited mainly in lower regions of your body - lower abdomen, hips and thighs
  • Have capacity for high fat storage and therefore put on weight easily
  • Have ability to put on great muscle mass through strength training
  • Constantly struggle to watch your diet and do your exercise just to maintain a healthy body weight

Seems like if you're an endo, you're on the loosing side.....

Hey, n-o-o.....,

Yours truly here is a shiny example of an endo female body type and I love and enjoy every bit of my body!

The Good News

Toning exercise for this female body shape will add muscle to create a balance between your upper and lower body and speed up your metabolism so your body burns fat more quickly.

When well-toned, the soft swelling curves of this female body shape create alluring body contours and deep curves that give off great sensuality and sex appeal!

Mmm....Nice, isn't it?

So, don't you worry a thing if you're an endo!

Endo's Exercise Workout

If you're an endo, try to incorporate these into your exercise program:

  • Cardio exercise , to burn fat and maintain a healthy body fat percentage. Try to exercise at 60% to 80% of your maximum heart rate
  • Toning exercise for your muscle groups, especially for your hips, abdomen and thighs
  • Stretching
  • Working out 4 or more times per week

The Ectomorph

Well, if you've this female body shape, you tend to:

  • Be slim, skinny and hard to gain weight (Shhh... Wanna know how to gain weight safely?)

    Wow, don't I wish to have a body shape like that!!!

  • Have hips and shoulders that are approximately the same width
  • Have delicate build, narrow hips and pelvis and long arms and legs
  • Have lesser fat and muscle mass
  • Have small bones and joints
  • Enjoy faster metabolism , hence you're able to burn more calories even at rest
  • Have the inherent capacity for cardiovascular endurance which enables you to maintain your lean body

Seems like if you're an ecto, you're winning it all.....

Not So.

You see, you'll have to struggle hard to gain weight which can, at times, be very frustrating.

You'll also spend longer time developing muscle mass.

The Good News

Toning exercise for this female body shape will help you add shape, proportion and definition to your physique.

You can carve sexy, shapely curves into your lean frame and you'll look firm, muscular and curvaceous!

I say, wouldn't that be a bonus to your old straight, skinny body?

Ecto's Exercise Workout

If you're an ecto, you would want to incorporate these into your exercise program:

  • Cardio exercise. Try to exercise at 60% to 80% of your maximum heart rate
  • Toning exercise for your muscle groups
  • Stretching
  • Working out 3-4 times per week

The Mesomorph

What happens if you've this female body shape?

Well, you tend to:

  • Have muscular, rectangular outline with strong bones and broad shoulders
  • Have well defined chest and shoulders that are both larger and broader than your waistline
  • Have hips and shoulders that are approximately the same width
  • Have taut stomach
  • Store fat evenly all over your body
  • Have ability to gain muscle quickly, a benefit to you since it makes it easier for you to maintain a healthy body weight. You know, by increasing your muscle mass, you increase your body's metabolism to burn fat, hence losing weight

Seems like if you're a meso, you should be quite happy....

Not really.

You'll still struggle with your body shape because you could look heavier than you actually are because of your thick bones and muscles.

And buying clothes to fit your larger thighs and calves could be quite daunting at times because they simply don't fit comfortably!

The Good News

Toning exercise for this female body shape is easy as you'll be pleased how quickly you can fine tune your body into natural shape and curve.

You seem able to soak up the benefits of toning exercise the way a sponge soaks up water!

You'll be able to add muscles while chisel away your body fat to reveal firm yet feminine curves.

In short, for a meso, a little toning truly does go a long way!

Meso's Exercise Workout

If you're a meso, it's best for you to incorporate the followings into your exercise program:

  • Cardio exercise. Try to exercise at 60% to 80% of your maximum heart rate
  • Toning exercise for your muscle groups
  • Stretching
  • Working out 3-4 times per week

Body Shape should not be the "all in all" thing

Ah! Endo...Ecto....Meso....

What's yours?

Does it really matter much what shape your body falls into?

To me, it really doesn't matter much; what matters is this:

That you know that exercise is good for you and that why you need to exercise.

That it's not just for the sake of carving an envious female body shape, but for your health too!

A Combination of the 3 Body Shapes

Well, what I gonna say is that like most girls, you're probably a combination of the 3 female body types mentioned above.

Don't worry, whatever female body shape you've, these exercises - toning/strength training and cardio are your best sculpting tools....

And a trainer will come in very handy indeed to custom-design exercise program that suits your body shape.

I want to introduce Chad, my trusted trainer to you.

You'll love his programs that really work - you see results!

And his honesty and sincerity in wanting you to achieve your exercise goals!

Oh, yeah.

I want to say this -

Because there's no such thing as a perfect female body shape in existence, you might as well appreciate the body shape that has been given to you and work on your potential to have a fit, firm and healthy body!

Hey, be proud of your toned, shapely body!

Psssstttt...

Have you wondered how celebs like J Lo, Jenniffer Aniston, Jessicca Simpson.... maintain their alluring body shapes?
