Models who are on the covers \u2013 and in pages – of most fashion magazine incline towards having an ectomorph body type. As well as being tall, ectomorph individuals have a thin build, long limbs, small joints as well as fragile bones. Many ectomorphs are flat-chested and, although they appear to be skinny, they can have higher body fat percentage than one might believe.<\/p>\n
Ectomorphs have a challenging time of putting on muscle mass as their metabolism is inclined to run at a higher rate than that of other body types. In the world of health and fitness, we would refer to ectomorphs them as \u201chard gainers.\u201d Celebrity female ectomorphs include Kate Moss, Natalie Portman, Taylor Swift, Kate Middleton as well as Cameron Diaz. Celebrity male ectomorphs include Matthew McConaughey, Bradley Cooper as well as Toby McGuire.<\/p>\n
