How to Exercise & Diet Correctly for Your Body Type | Joanna Soh 

My diet is whatever my parent’s cook for dinner✨

Her: * what's your body type* Me: *idk im just fat*

i’m an endomorph, i’ve struggled losing weight my whole life. I am going to use this information as motivation to not give up and keep trying and this time take my body type into account. the diet portion really put things into perspective and i love that!!

I’m an ectomorph and have been struggling to gain weight and muscle. As someone who is still a teenager, this has been really informative. Thank you

"You must watch what you eat" Me: I eat what I watch

Being an Endomorph I can’t get my thighs to social distance 😔

As a mesomorph. My natural body type without working out or dieting is mid. People say I have a nice body but that's with clothes on 😂 without you could definitely see that I wasn't working out. I followed what you said, doing more HIIT and Cardio. While also having a balanced diet of carbs and protein. I immediately saw results in just a few days!! Mostly in my legs! They look more toned and firm. I'm gonna keep going but thank you so much for this video! I sent it to all my friends 😂

I think I'm meso-endo. I've always been strong, but I've also always been fat. I currently have slow metabolism, but my body does respond well to exercise and I lose weight when I'm maintaining my health. I've yo-yo'd between 230-240 for years. I really think I'd be endo if I was healthier.

Endomorphs i know what you are searching: Endomorph Training - 7:57

As an indian and living with my parents, it is really hard to take less carbs.

I’m a endomorph and I’ve been struggling to lose weight for 3 years now, all the other things I’ve read and watched aren’t as descriptive as this video, having it all laid out for me like this is really helpful. Thank you!

Endo-Meso: I used to be thin and lanky but in my early 20s I went on medication that slowed my metabolism and started eating unhealthily; I put on over 20kgs. I changed my diet several years later and lost over 10 kgs (starting weight was 50 - 55kgs, height just over 5'7" so I was underweight on the BMI scale before gaining the weight). So I guess now I'm an endo-meso because im skinny fat... I'm thin but flabby with no tone or definition that I used to have. I'm going to start exercising (mix between pilates, resistance and light weights) to help build mobility and tone up.

"less carbs" me as a Filipino who eats rice for breakfast, and loves pasta 👁️👄👁️

She: “Just think about how you look like in your teenage years.” Me in my teenage years:”......”

I am an endomorph and I have tried my whole life to work on my body, this information is the best I have read or seen in my whole life and I promise to work on my diet else forth . Thank girl you are the best!

Your content is bite sized, concise and super easy to assimilate and apply! Thank you ❤

me being 17 trying to figure out what i looked like in my early 20s 💀

“We want to keep your heart rate elevated” My anxiety: 👍

this was genuinely incredibly helpful to me thank you, I have always struggled with simply getting started on my journey to better myself because I never knew what to do and i never really found a video like this giving me almost a blueprint to what I need, thank you v much

Finding your channel is such a blessing. This is so informative, thank you

Life’s hard when you’re a carb loving endomorph... :(

I’ve started my weight loss journey on May 22. I’ve been writing down everything I eat, drink or do. Tracking has seemed to help. I’ve incorporated vitamins and created a workout plan. With fitness goals. I would be an Meso-Endo - endo being the dominant shape. I was right on track with what works best with my body to lose weight, so thank you for helping me clarify!

I'm a Meso-Endo combination I've struggled most after my second child. I noticed that mainly strength training worked for me in my late teens and 20's. My late 20's and early 30's is when I started having a harder time getting back into a healthier weight maintenance.

7:57 for the endomorph part lol

"You must watch what you eat" My carribean mom:"there are hungry children in this world so eat what i make"

I am so glad I found your channel. I have been working out according to a programme for two years now. But this makes more sense and I hope now I can see faster results. Thank you so much for your informative video!

I used to watch you back in high school and I learned so much and fell of the weagon after starting college and now found my way back to you and one thing I will say your information is pure Gold you hit so many points within such a short time !!! pure scientic information and I've learned somuch in just one video then any expensive trainer can teach me. they only give general advice and it is so expensive which never made sense to me especially if someone already has a gym membership .

*her: avoid eating rice or starchy foods* *mom: no, no, no we don't do that here.* edit: boohoo i got 1.2k mom must be proud of me

“Think of what u looked like in your early 20s!” *Stares in 13*

Thank you so much, I already made a lot of healthy decisions and already had Kinoformat a plan but now I exactly know what I have to focus on. I was also surprised, because when I just found out I was mesomorph you said that our goal is usually to get a lean body and that was really true. I am even more motivated now!

Endo here! I love when you said endos sometime feel destined to be bigger bc of genetics and that’s just not true. Thanks for the information, Endomorphs unite!!!

"If you're an endomorph don't eat too much carbs" Me an Asian: *snacking on my rice

8:59 “Keep your heart elevated” My anxiety already does that for me. Surprised my hearts not broken yet

I've learnt a great deal from this video compared to all the hundreds of videos I have watched which was quite frustrating as they were not as specific and direct to the point. New subscriber here from Australia. Thank you so much for sharing your invaluable knowledge and it is much appreciated.

Finally a video that explains everything in the simplest way. I'm an ectomorph and I'm into bodybuilding. I need to increase mass to get muscles but it's hard for me to eat but I'm trying to eat properly.

I’m an endo-meso. I love how my body builds muscle easily but man, if I slack, the weight and fat hits me like a train 😂 I just have to stay consistent 💪🏼💪🏼

Wow this is the most comprehensive informative video about my body type, work out and diet! I am thrilled to start my weight loss journey as an endomorph.

Wow! The best video I’ve ever watched! Lots of info in 12-minute video. Amazing! Thank you for this! ❤❤❤

Endomorphs(notes) Training: General- 8:32 Strength training- 8:49 Endurance training- 9:36 Diet: 10:14 Starchy foods- 10:44 Example of meal- 10:55

My body type is 'Endo-meso', I tend to gain weight around my belly and thighs when not exercising or eating healthy

Thank you johanna i will start following your advice straight away! Im so glad that I have found your channel!!

“in your late teens of early twenties” girl i’m 13 💀

When you're a teen endomorph with south Asian parents who only eat carb filled foods 😓😓

I’m a mectomorph, been skinny all my life and now trying to build muscle and become stronger! I eat in smaller portions frequently throughout the day rather than one big meal at a time, but when I tracked my calories I wasn’t eating as much as I should to actually gain. I’ve incorporated protein shakes into my diet and it’s helping lots

Interesting and well-organized video. I've worked with a dietitian, physical therapist, functional medicine physician, and (briefly) a personal trainer before I joined the military about 30 years ago. I was, and had always been, an ectomorph type like my father. Very active in sports and such as a kid and throughout school/college. I was injured while in the military and permanently limited in my physical activities in many ways as a result. Now in my late 40s, a mother, and experiencing perimenopause, I continue to walk daily (I often do a 5K walk of varying speeds, sometimes wearing a light weighted vest), a yoga/calisthenics routine to maintain my mobility, and regular farm chores - yet I still find that presently I fit more into the endomorph type, appearance-wise. My genetic testing shows dietary needs similar to the profile provided here for endomorphs. I think eating is my primary issue. I don't do enough of it. I don't like to cook, eating takes time I would prefer to spend doing other things, and I have so many food sensitivities and allergies that eating can be a literal pain or at a minimum, very complicated. I've been trying to figure out what my base body type was and the way to achieve it. I have mild osteopenia, am close to being "overweight" for my height/build - but not there yet. This video made me realize that the advice my healthcare team has been giving me has been based on my current appearance, NOT on my actual "teenage" (and lifelong in general) body type. I'm going to switch some things around and see if modifying my physical activity and dietary patterns to align with my genetic body type (ectomorph) works better for me, since it seems almost exactly opposite of what has been recommended to me for years now. Multiple surgeries, illnesses, and so on hampered my fitness, but now the lightbulb has gone on over my head and I feel like this might be the start of a better, more effective health and fitness strategy for myself overall. Treat my genetic self first, not the shape I see in the mirror right now. My upper body very definitely still shows my ectomorph physiology! 😊 Thank you for this excellent video. Really helped tie a lot of the pieces together for me and given me fresh inspiration and motivation. I want to look and feel awesome when I walk the stage in the next year or so to receive my PhD! With this guidance, I believe I can make that happen! 💪🏻💖

So to summarise for us Endomorph Mon - Strength Tues - Endurance Wed - Strength Thur - Endurance Friday - Strength Sat - HIIT Sun - Rest........... I'm dead.

I'm an meso-endo with big shoulders, breasts and butt...and I will probably be toned up if I don't sit at my bed binge watching k-dramas the whole time

I'm grateful. I now know my body type. Fitness is for life. Totally agree. Thanks

This is the best body type video I have seen. There are many who need to see this so they can understand what they should do instead of taking a magic pill or neglecting their calorie intake needs.❤

“You can change your body by changing your lifestyle” My Mexican mother: *stuffs beautiful tasting food down my throat*

*me literally crying while watching the video because i hate being an endomorph that has serious problems with anxiety, stress and lack of patience* :D

I found this video while searching for metabolic workouts for women over 50. Albeit it’s three years old. Eating and exercising for your specific somatotype is definitely the way to go. Basically she has “told the truth and shamed the devil”….stop spinning those wheels. I’ve been there. This isn’t anything new to me and I’m glad she has addressed this. I’ve often wondered if many PT’s assess their clients in this fashion before they actually start working with them. I’ve seen many an article in muscle magazines (c., 1980’s etc). My curiosity led me to Google how to find out your what your dominant somatotype is. This led me to one free quiz. In fact, I found three of them. Results - two of them said I was straight up Endomorph. One said I was a combo of Endomorph-Mesomorph. I’ve had a hint of success following an Endomorph plan of eating and metabolic workouts. I’m well over 50 so I’m also thinking hormones are a factor too or could be. Staying consistent is definitely at the top of the list regardless of which “umbrella” you fall under. As far as Endomorph’s are concerned and foods that are better suited, she’s accurate about the sugars and fats. Endomorphs are considered “the fat retainers.” Sugars and fats - all forms of them have to be watched with a vengeance. Low glycemic carbs are a much better option. “Cheat treats” (not just sweets either) for me have to be strategically planned and not too often. Besides that, gluten I avoid. Grains I avoid too. The only exception is popcorn 🍿 at the movies 🎥 or I make it myself. I’ll keep the turkey, fish, some chicken, eggs, green veggies, and small amounts of low glycemic fruits. Those foods are very agreeable with me. As mentioned before, metabolic workouts - tabata style and circuits are very effective…been there and the results are great. ☺️👍🏽 just staying consistent has been an issue.

She is so like loud and motivating...imma go on a morning walk tomorrow.

I’m a Mesomorph. I’m trying to start a routine and become more healthy. Remember ladies. Skinny does not equal healthy.

Why is literally everyone an endomorph

This video was so helpful. I listen to it three or four times shared it with my husband and took notes. This really gave me a plan for how to live. I am an endomorph by the way. Thank you so much for sharing. I also subscribed. 😊

So glad I came across this video. Very informative!! I will make sure to take notes and start this as soon as possible.

Being an endomorph as a female seems helpless 😢.

Endomorph trying to finally have my dream body 😭 I’m in my 20s and my body totally skipped the flat tummy phase everyone else seems to have had.

Reinforces everything I know I should be doing. Thanks for the great info!

Thank you, this was quick and to the point! Much appreciated! ❤

Seriously , out of all,the endomorph body type is the worst to have . I'm struggling:(.

"if you are an endomorph don't eat high carb food" *Me, an Italian endomorph*: 🤡

I'm quiet not sure what is my body type. But I'm definitely sure that she's right about trying a lot of methods till you find your suitable one and it will take months and may be a year or two to get there. Then, once you reach your goal don't STOP It's a life style. Thanks a load this is extremely useful👏🏻

This is the most informative video EVER! My whole life I've been 'skinny' but pretty strong but during covid i gained 10 kilos and was pretty confused, because no matter what i would eat before, it was impossible for me to gain weight. I will use this video as a guid

"in ur late teens or early twenties." laughs at being fat your whole life.

as an ectomorph my parents would always get mad at how hungry i was throughout the day. they hated how much i ate and thought i was just eating just to eat. im glad to know there wasnt anything wrong with me and that it was natural

I’m a mesomorph, this is the most grateful I’ve felt abt my body in some time 😭 I’m so glad loll

Finally I have an explanation of what I need. Thank you.

“Don’t under eat “ me watching this with an eating disorder: 👁👄👁

I'm definitely a Meso-Endo. Its also important to talk about hormones... Sometimes we don't have the results we work for, not because we didn't recognise our body type, but because we have hormonal problems. If you think that is your case, like mine, seek to understand better and find a good endocrinologist! Good luck!

I am an endomorph, I found this video very informative , Thanks a lot

I feel so much more confident in my body now thank you so much 😭❤️

What about meso-endomorps? How their diet and exercise would work out Edit: wow never got this many likes. So for that I want to mention that I've determined that I have the meso type and recently started Cloe ting's workouts and its killing me but I'm seeing results in 3 days. Hence proved. Moreover Joanah was my first trainer so forever love and support for her. But now I wanted to try something different. Thanks all :) goodluck to y'all too ❤

I'm so happy she acknowledged ectomorphs too it's so hard for me to find information on the correct way of eating for my body type

Wow, this is what I'm looking for. Thank you for this informative video. I learned many things from you. Keep posting! ❤

Very helpful for my wt loss journey… this video gave me right path for my workout.

Me : okay , I need to start exercising it’s been 5 months Ad : *STOP , DO NOT EXERCISE* Also me : very well *I’m going back to bed*

my body type is ENDO-MESO.. cause' when i was still a child i have a skinny body but then once i hit preteenage years i started to gain weight and even more weight till last year. But this year i started to workout and loss about 10lbs i guess. theen, i stopped working out again because i got lazy.

Thank you for simplifying all that info!!

I'm a mesomorph, and believe me, in my teens I was quite athletic. However, over the years, due to academic stress and poor eating habits, I have gained quite a bit of weight. As she said, my goal is to get lean. Wish me luck!

When she described endomorph, I’ve never felt so attacked in my life. She literally described everything I’m going through or have tried

I'm a mesomorph. I see quick changes in me,in working out even for a few days. But I get back to where I was, within a few days after I stop the regimen.

I think it's the most informative video ever!!! Thank you !!!❤❤❤

Wow thank you, you are really motivating me💪🏼

Endomorph here - just want to reduce my hip and thigh size badly😖

When you're the one meso-endo in the group who has asian parents that make 5 star carb meals every day. Edit: I never expected this many likes. Wow there are so many people who can relate.

Omg!!! Thank you so much! This helped me to learn so much about my body! THANK YOU!🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

The best video ever seen on this topic❤️

I really cannot figure out what I am... Until I was about 23 I was really skinny while I ate shitty food and never exercised so maybe an ectomorph? Then I started gaining weight (gained 10kg ) and now at 26 have belly fat and wide hips so closer to endomorph? Can it change with age? WHAT AM I???

Endomorph here🙋🏾‍♀️! My goal is to be healthy inside and out with FLAT ABS and lean thighs. I work out too. I know be consistent and don't give up. Hopefully, I am doing the correct exercises.🚶‍♀️🏋🏾‍♀️

Thank you so much ♥️ Have a nice day 🤗 Take care 😘

omggg thank u so much i was looking for that kind of vid for 1 year

when you’re an endomorph but you love pasta

when she said to eat less carbs and I eat rice in almost every meal 😔*cries in mexican*

Fantastic video, thank you. Stress and menopause doesn't help sadly but I have to be more accountable for changing. I need to lose only half a stone but I need to start a strength training routine to change my body shape. Have always been around 8 stone but have put on about 9lbs in 5 years. Am 55 but dream of having a muscular fit body. Thanks for this guidance. x

thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I’m in endomorph and I finally learnt that hit training and weights was no good. started walking and doing bodyweight workouts and I’ve dropped 14lbs and look leaner..squats are my enemy
