Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my body type?

You cannot change your bone structure (frame size), but you can significantly alter your muscle mass and body fat levels through diet and exercise.

Are these categories scientific?

They are based on the somatotype theory (Sheldon). While widely used in fitness, they are general classifications, not strict biological laws.
