Ectomorph
Slender, thin bones and skinny. They do not have much muscle mass or fat. They stand out in a activities that require endurance, such as running a long distance and climbing.
Ectomorphs have a fast metabolism. They have a short torso, long arms and legs, long and narrow hands and feet, a very small percentage of bodyfat, narrow shoulders and thin muscles
