You can barely be walking with 1% body fat let alone be running a marathon. You are either very wrong in your calculations Anthony Robinson..or full of poop. ;) This is general info regarding body types, and is good as it is aimed at a general audience. I am a boxer who works a hard 6 day a week routine, and am likely in the middle of ectomorph and mesomorph. Lean frame, but tend to build lean muscle quickly. A lot of that may due to proper training, eating and recovery. Important elements to be considered in anyones routines. haha.

Also, he assumes that everyone is after cosmetic improvement, rather than boosted sporting performance, or better health. Personally I would rather ask propper scientists for my health advice. I think this is a classic case of the author having more ego than brains.

Each year, I seem to be more endomorphic and my metabolism continues to slow down. The 7-8 small meals is great idea and will speed up my metabolism.

A woman with an Ectomorph frame could train heavy to help her add some shape to her body and put on some lean muscle mass. A women with Endomorph and Meso should stay away from heavy training. I learned this on my own Physique and from training others *I'm a trainer @ an all womens gym*. For most women I would say Circuit training is best and not on machines...they just heap you cheat and limit your movement. I hate the gym Curves for the fact that they have sucked soo many women into believe that doing 1 circuit once a week is good enough! Its not...not if your trying to Achieve a goal!

I decided to test by doing Heavy Reps, Id start lower and increase till I was at my max...I began to look like Arnold! People asked if I was using roids due to the naturally muscular build which just seemed to bulk more and more. I finally stopped training all together and let the muscle shrink and began to gain more fat. I let m,yself got for almost a year to get to the fat size I wanted then began Circuit training. I leaned out and got my old physique back....So LADIES..if your Meso..Dont train heavy unless you like that manly look!
