Alexander discovered the gym this past semester. He now eats tons of protein, rarely has desserts, stays away from fatty foods, makes shakes with 100% whey, and seems to always be hungry. He’s at the gym at least four times a week. And he runs, rather sprints, at a nearby track. His new body is impressive.
I think Alexander is more body-conscious than I was while on weight watchers. The other night he had dinner with Eric, his father. Apparently Eric has been working out too, and according to Alexander, “He’s mesomorphic.” I have called Eric a lot of things, but never that. So Alexander enlightens me.
There are three basic body types. A mesomorph has an athletic build, a developed upper body, and can gain and lose weight quickly.
I am happy to fall into this category.
Maybe my son’s commitment to a healthier life style will inspire me to exercise more. Or said more honestly, maybe my son’s commitment to a healthier life style will inspire me to exercise.
