Dr. James Henning answered

Specializes in Anesthesiology

Push..: Significant mass gains may require greater intensity and more frequent eating than for a typical mesomorph. Aerobic conditioning may need to be more moderate but frequent to avoid loss of mass. Experimenting is the key! enjoy! movement is good!
