Welcome To Ectomorph Workout!
Hey there, welcome to ectomorph workout!
This, is a site by an ectomorph and for ectomorphs.
I am Wayne Griffins, and I am an ectomorph just like you.
I know all your pains, trust me, I’ve been there before.
I lost weight if I didn’t eat, didn’t make much gains in the gym despite 2 whole years of (misguided) working out, felt inferior beside the muscular jock, and being insecure around girls and when I’ve to take my shirt off.
My natural reaction was to blame my fast metabolism, and resigning to fate that I was a hardgainer.
But I was wrong. If you want to know more about me, click here.
What I share on this site is REAL and structured information to help you make consistent and sustainable muscle growth.
You Probably Want To
- Gain weight/bulk up
- Gain muscles
- Be lean and ripped
And that’s why you’ve likely googled Ectomorph Workout (or something along those lines) right?
That is to get a workout routine that will help you achieve that muscular alpha male body you’ve always wanted.
However, You Face These Problems
- Information overload
- Not knowing what to believe in and where to start from
I am a member of several bodybuilding forums and there’s good information out there, where people test and tell. But again, such information is
- Unexplained
- If explained, they are normally too technical
- There’s also so much information you won’t know who to believe, or who to model
- As a result, you switch workout routines frequently searching for that perfect routine
- Contradictory information dished out by “community experts”, because everyone’s bodies are different
.
What’s My Vision For Ectomorph Workout.org?
Honestly, I don’t want to be just another bodybuilding blog where the author updates tips regularly but the information is everywhere and disorganized!
My vision is simple, and that is to provide the necessary knowledge for all ectomorphs who are struggling with gaining muscle and weight to come up with their own ectomorph workout and diet plans.
This knowledge is what I have learned, personally tested and found to be effective for skinny guys like us.
What You Can Expect from This Site:
- Concise information
- Step by step action plan – proper structure
- Covers every aspect of bodybuilding – I will add fresh content regularly, or you could email me to request as well
- Easy to understand – minimum jargon

Hi there!
Great read over there. I’m a skinny guy right now trying to reach my goal that is, to have a fit and ripped body. I’m currently a month old in the gym so I could not yet tell the difference if I had improvements on that month. I hope this site would help me reach my goal. :)
Are there any other way that I can contact you easily if I have some questions with regards to my workout programs, food, etc.? If you happen to do so, can I have it? Thanks! :)

Hi Rem, you could contact me at contact@ectomorphworkout.org :)
And give yourself some time, if you are new to weight lifting, you will gain quite some muscles quickly but it won’t be enough to get the dream body (I know it’s subjective). Give yourself some time, learn and stick to the basics and be extremely disciplined and you will get there in time to come.

Well I just found your site today and I read almost everything. I gotta say the reasons I came to this site is pretty much spot on with what you said. Contradictory info or too much or what have you. I’m sure through this site and help that you provide I can definitely make the gains I’m looking for. Thanks Wayne.

Hi. Let me give u some back ground info.: I’m a 40 yr old ectomorph. I’m five feet 8 inches tall and I have shorter legs than my upper torso. I have a chest that naturally gets larger in mass, yet my chest even though gets bigger through my high intensity heavy weight low rep bench presses & other workouts, is a weak chest which can’t handle real heavy weight. My shoulders are broad & I have long arms. Because I have broad shoulders, & a naturally quick muscle gaining–barrel chest (even though it’s bark is bigger than its bite & is a weak chest),– I think I might just a tad have mesomorphic qualities. So, I might be a hybrid of mostly ectomorph, slightly mesomorph.
My question is that in my desperate attempt as a hard-gainer to gain weight, I’ve eaten a lot of high-caloric foods like hot dogs & pork chops. So instead of being 150 lbs of skinny, yet defined muscles, I am 176 lbs of still ectomorphic, skinny but more muscle body & my waistline/abdomen has gotten A LOT larger. So in other words, I’m a less skinnier kid, with a little bit more muscles, but now I have a disporportionately larger belly.
Now, I’ve read that to get a more defined belly, I have to lose weight & lose fat by doing cardio, but that will ruin my chances now of getting an overall muscular body since I will lose calories & lose weight, not just from my waistline, but from the rest of my body.
What solution do you have to this. On the one hand, I’m supposed to eat high caloric foods, but yet now I’m still a skinny kid (although i have more muscles), but now I have a much bigger belly & to lose that belly I have to eat less to lose the fat. You see how this is like a catch-22?
Should I just still eat a lot but avoid hot dogs, and concentrate on low-fat meats. Can you give some examples of these types of foods?
Thanks for all your help & the help you provide other ectomorphs–a lot of whom were bullied and made fun of during their school years.
Your site here is truly a blessing & I hope ur rewarded a 1000-fold for your advice.
