About the Body Type Calculator
This calculator estimates your somatotype and classifies you as an ectomorph, mesomorph, or endomorph. The output is your dominant body type, often paired with a short profile of its typical traits.
The tool works from your inputs rather than a single named formula. You provide height, weight, and sometimes a wrist or frame measurement, then answer questions about how your body stores fat, gains muscle, and responds to food and training. The calculator weighs these answers against standard somatotype characteristics to produce a classification. A practical tip: base your answers on long-term patterns, not just your current shape, since diet and training can temporarily mask your natural type. For health decisions, consider a fitness or medical professional.
- Enter your height, weight, and frame or wrist measurement if requested.
- Answer each question about fat storage, muscle gain, and metabolism honestly.
- Read your body type result and apply it to your fitness and nutrition plan.
