Pitta-Kapha types usually are very healthy and resilient, combining the the power of Pitta with the strength of Kapha. They usually display a sturdier build than pure Pittas and put on weight more easily than those but since they are also physically more active than pure Kaphas they usually are able to keep the balance.

Just came across this, nice read. Understanding one’s Dosha constitution is the easiest way to understanding Ayurveda and making it work for you.
Doshas in Ayurveda are the three vital energies Vata (Air), Pitta (Fire), Kapha (Water). In fact they are not three different energies but three sides of the one all-embracing energy of life.
