PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

PSYCHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Woman The Lymph body type has an athletic build with broad shoulders and a well-proportioned body. Female Lymph types are typically petite-to-average in height, with a small-to-medium bone structure. Primary weight gain is typically in their thighs. Male Lymphs have an average, proportionate torso with easily maintained muscular definition. Both male and female Lymphs may have a swayed back and prominent buttocks, although women are more likely to exhibit this trait.

Because of their need for physical stimulation, Lymphs are often "classic" athletes or bodybuilders. As a type, Lymphs are extremely beautiful or handsome and are the most consistently physically attractive of the 25 body types.

Lymphs have a strong need for exercise. If a Lymph type does not get the mental or physical stimulation they need, they'll get depressed. This gregarious type is playful and extroverted, sweeping people off their feet with their vibrancy and energy. Lymphs are romantically inclined, entering new relationships with great optimism and excitement. Creative and artistic, Lymphs love to express themselves through music, dance, or other types of artistic expression
