I am a Ectomorph. When I joined the Army I was 6'8" and 195lbs when I left 235lbs. When I was in garrison I ate 3 squares a day 2 MRE and 2 protein drinks and WORKED OUT all the time. I switched it up about every other month. Low reps heavy weight, then high reps, low weight. During the high rep cycle I would rep to total failure.

Example: Bench Press 220lbs until failure drop 20lbs reps until failure etc. When I got to 100lbs I would do 3 sets of push ups until failure.
