   • 2025 February 4, Laura Schober, “What Does It Mean To Have an Endomorph Body Type?”, in Health‎:

     They found that endomorphs had significantly greater asymmetry in arm fat than mesomorphs and ectomorphs. […] They can also achieve mesomorph qualities through resistance training (which builds muscle) and a balanced diet rich in protein.
