          Scrawny individual who has a difficult time putting on mass or gaining weight. Often used as a condescending term among weight-lifters to describe skinny, and thereby weaker, males. In the [bodybuilding] terminology, the antonym of ectomorph is [endomorph] - which is a [fatter] or heavier set individual who conversely has a difficult time losing weight.

            Ectomorph traditionally refers to a person who has a fast [metabolism] and [little fat]. However, it is more commonly used by those who have little muscle as an excuse. Many [skinny people] would call themselves ectomorphs or hardgainers but in actual fact they just dont eat enough.
