Sheldon's method of somatotyping is a system for categorizing and classifying the physical characteristics and body build of individuals into three distinct types: endomorph, mesomorph, and ectomorph. This method was developed by the psychologist W.H. Sheldon in the 1940s and 1950s, and is based on the idea that an individual's body build is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.

Endomorphs are characterized by having a round or apple-shaped body, with a tendency to store fat easily and a heavier build. They typically have a larger bone structure, rounded features, and a soft, round appearance. Endomorphs have a slow metabolism and struggle to lose weight, as they have a tendency to store fat in their bodies. This body type is often associated with a sedentary lifestyle and a preference for high-calorie foods.

Mesomorphs are known for their muscular and athletic build, with a tendency to build muscle easily and a leaner appearance. They typically have a medium-sized bone structure, square features, and a more angular appearance. Mesomorphs are known for their athletic prowess, as they have a naturally active metabolism and are able to build muscle and lose fat easily. This body type is often associated with a physically active lifestyle ____ ____ _______ _____ ________ ____________ ______ ___________ _____ ___________ __ ____________ ___ ___ ___________.
