The Four body types
ECTOMORPH (BANANA)
A long, rectangular and angular shape resembling a banana. Limbs tend to be longer than the torso with the waist generally straight with little definition. This body type is naturally thin with very little muscle on the limbs and trunk, this body type may be thin but may still have a high percentage of body fat.
MESOMORPH (APPLE)
This body type is the most athletic by nature. The shoulders are often broader than the hips resembling an apple. The arms and legs are very powerful and well developed. There is a higher muscle to fat ratio with this body type which can look fit even without exercise. They are however top-heavy and carry extra body fat in their abdominals, upper back and triceps area.
ENDOMORPH (PEAR)
This body type is pear shaped by nature, the upper body is described as soft with the shoulders appearing smaller than the hips. Eno, means curvy and the muscles of this body type are not well defined. There is a higher fat to muscle ratio on the trunk and limbs. This body type carries more body fat on the lower body and they tend to gain weight easily do to a slower metabolism.
MESO-ENDOMORPH (APPLE/PEAR)
This body type is much more muscular and their curves are more fitted to the body and pronounced in the normal Endomorph. The shoulders are broader than the Endomorph body type with a large chest and a lower waist line. The lower body, hips, thighs and stomach is less soft, resulting in a solid build. The Meso-Endo has the natural strength of a Meso-Morph and the curves of an Endomorph. This body type has an underlying musculature of a Mesomorph however, the body fat percentage is much higher.
Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit who lives within you, whom you have received (as a gift) from God? You are not your own. You were bought with a price purchased with a preciousness and paid for, made his own. So then, honor God and bring glory to him in your body. ~ 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

Testimony from Dr. Constance Klein
In 2005 I sought out Stacy Rae Mednick as a personal trainer with the goal of improving both my muscle tone and bone density. A recent diagnosis of osteoporosis, combined with a long family history of this disease, motivated me to begin a regular weight training program.

Stacy Rae introduced me to her body-type weight training philosophy and educated me as to the specific goals for an ectomorph body type. Together we established a workout regime of 40% cardiovascular exercise and 60% resistance training. As weight is not an issue, my primary goal was to build more muscle mass and increase bone density which are consistent goals with the ectomorph [long and lean] body type.
When Stacy Rae was asked to film her specific workouts applicable to each body type for the “Take Five” health website . I was able to experience her creating specific workout regimes and exercises that would help each specific body type reach their individual goals. I observed, as I had personally experienced in my own workouts, Stacy Rae’s attention to detail and correct form, her constant support and encouragement of her clients, and her ultimate professionalism.
I have increasing respect for Stacy Rae’s vast knowledge and experience in the field personal training. Not only do I value her expertise as my personal trainer, I value and respect her as a person and as my friend. My work with Stacy Rae has improved my general well being, my bone density, and it definitively gives me the confidence to wear my new “skinny jeans”. Thank you Stacy Rae!
Testimony from Kim Kling
I started training with Stacey Rae after I had my 4th child. I was looking to lose some baby weight and jumpstart a healthy diet and exercise routine that I could maintain. Stacey Rae was very flexible and came to my home to train me, as I did not have childcare for my baby.

Then we transitioned into her gym. After a few weeks of personal training I had to go in for surgery and would not be able to exercise for a few months. However when I was ready to start up again, joined a group class of strength training, stretching and cardio. It was a wonderful experience; I saw awesome results and lost a total of 8.5 inches all over my body! I went down 1 dress size, lost fat and gained muscle in just a matter of almost 3 months! Most importantly she energized me to continue working out and being healthy for the long haul. The environment in her gym is upbeat, fun and everyone works hard! Thanks for all your passion Stacey Rae! ~ Kim K. 39 Mother of 4
Testimony from Jackie May
There are no words to express how much Stacy Rae changed my life in a very short time. I started coming to her when my left foot was broken and in a boot. I was a mess in so many ways.

Through a dear friend pushing me not to wait another 2 months for my foot to heal, I went to see Stacy and she was able to work around my injury. In fact it is amazing to see her in action - I have seen her working with 4 of us at one time in her studio and three of us have totally different injuries and she can with non-stop consistency focus on each of us as if we are the only ones there. Stacy's passionate about her clients - not just the work out, she genuinely cares about what's going on with you and the entire time she is educating you about your body and nutrition. In 13 sessions with her so far I have lost 7 lbs and my body is changing (oh yeah, I still have my boot on too), I am feeling great and not so much a mess anymore.
Stacy - I miss our time together but you would be really proud of me - I'm totally on track with my cardio sessions with a goal of 200 minutes a week, I'm eating clean and lost 2 more pounds 🙂 I am down 9 lbs total so far!

Testimony from Diana Monteleone
I've been working out with Stacy Rae for a couple years now. I feel so much better than way back then. I had chronic back pain and couldn't sit on the floor Indian style. My range of movement was really limited.

Stacy Rae has helped, encouraged and inspired me to keep up with my work outs, to stay active. I no longer have back pain, and can move so much easier. My walks now are usually 4-6 miles and I feel really good. Thanks so much Stacy Rae!!!

Testimony from Connie Morris
I have loved training with Stacy Rae. She really knows what she is doing. Stacy Rae has challenged me both mentally and physically. She taught me strengthening exercises that my body type responds best too. She has also shared nutritional information that has assisted me in lowering my cholesterol. Thank you Stacy Rae for this knowledge. I will use it to maintain a healthy lifestyle forever. Blessings to you and your family!
Testimony from Lyn Boodman
I have been working out with Stacy Rae for about 2 ½ years. She is ways positive and encouraging. Because of her fitness and nutritional knowledge I have lost weight and I am in the best shape I have ever been in my life.
With her guidance I have reached my goals and I am continuing to maintain my overall health though a balance of healthy eating, weight training and cardio. I would highly recommend Stay Rea as a trainer, educator and motivator.
Testimony from Jullie Galindo
I have joined and quit many gyms, tried many diets and gained the weight back then one day, I saw the sign for Body Techniques in my neighborhood and have been a believer ever since. My workouts with Stacy Rae not only provide results but I have gained so much knowledge about my body and nutrition. Every workout is challenging and carefully thought out for my body type. I am going on my 4th year of training with Stacy Rae. It's not easy to wake up for that 6AM training session but worth every minute when I show up. Thank you Stacy Rae for giving so much of yourself in every session.
