"The 4-Hour Body" by Alan Hint

[rg3519]

how do you figure out your max weight this was the only thing that is confusing me i started today eating as much as possible 3200 calories im only 100lbs and your video just inspired me even more to gain weight and muscle

[couhell]

Nice vid. Cold you post before and after photos for a better imagination of effect this training method ? thanks

[alanhint]

@couhell I posted a new video. You can see before photo there :) Thanks

[blebby]

I'm confused, doesn't the book say 80-120 seconds of work-time (tension) and that being 8-12 reps?

[alanhint]

@blebby Sorry, don't remember... please check my new vid with Redcord trainer

[brosiferous]

This is a great video. Thank you for explaining the "5/5". Good luck!

[animejoao]

i have another question, can you put the pulling exercises in one day and the pushing exercises in another and the legpress in one day and the kettlebell swings in another, because this way every muscle group that you used would obtain more time to rest, for example pulling day 7 days rest on monday and pushing day 7 days rest on friday for example, in the pulling day we add legpress and in the pushing day we add kettlebell swings can this work, i just feel that doing this way would be better.

[alanhint]

@animejoao Sure, try it out man!

[animejoao]

i have a question i like of using kettlebell swings everyday just like 75 reps, because i just like the swing, but does this destroy any gains that i should had with occam protocol, should i only do occam as strenght training and nothing more. thanks.

[alanhint]

@animejoao you need enough time for your body to recover. I train max 1-2 per week. Look at my new video with Redcord and you can see, that I've gained weight, by reducing exercise.

This fucking Tim Fiss 4-hour body is a little bit of a scam! He has not come up with a shit himself. He has just copied all the knowledge in the book from other books. This training is from body by science. He is nothing but a very good seller!

[alanhint]

@Eriikk82 Good point! 

[animejoao]

hey how many minutes should one rest between each exercise or its just like a superset.

thanks.

[alanhint]

@animejoao I rest around 3 mins

[spenc193]

This workout program really isn't anything special. The only insight is less is more. If you go into the gym and stress slow, controlled movements and compound resistance movements that hit multiple muscle groups, and you limit the rest periods, you're able to rev up metabolism, muscle gain, and fat burn in less time. The intensity should force the workout the be shorter, not simply shorter for the sake of time saving. We weren't meant for long, strung out medium intensity exercise.

[animejoao]

when we count hour in a gym, you count only the time doing workout or the time inside the gym, i know it seems silly ask this, but i wonder if i should count the time that i rest between the series.

[4hourlife]

Wonderful video. In fact I think this is the best one I have seen yet on youtube in regards to Occam's Protocol! I am at day 9 of the protocol and just like you I think it is the best because of the minimal time commitment. Thank you for sharing.... P.S did you do the diet portion as well.

[Djinnmeister]

Good vid. However, it would have been great to see before and after photo's and seeing you actually do the exercises to failure because without those you have no proof to show you used the four hour body method.

[alanhint]

@Djinnmeister Really good point! I was just so excited to share what I had discovered, that I just wanted to do this video mainly for the people who have been reading the book themselves and would like just some more encouragement to train!

[AlexMass2004]

Thanks for this great video!

[tuukster]

Really good and inspiring video. Trying this myself too to gain some kilos :)

One minor question came in my mind. Do you need to rest between training 1 and 2 or can I just continue right away?

[alanhint]

@tuukster Yes! You do need to rest. Actually Timothy says that it is crucial to take adequate breaks. At first you keep 3-4 days between workout 1 and 2 and over time you even increase the break time. Really recommend you read more from the book!

[thegreatmoa]

Great video! I'm currently in my second week of my 28 day challenge, and it feels just incredible! While I doubt I'll have the same results as you did by the end of my experiment, the changes are coming quick, and I intend to keep with it well past the 28 day trial period. Thanks for sharing your story!

[alanhint]

@thegreatmoa Just keep training! :) I've now been on the same program for 6 months and don't see a reason to change. No remarkable gains since the video was posted, because I've been really inconsistent with the diet. But it's absolutely fine for me, since I've managed to keep the body I am happy with, now for 6 months already with only 1,5 hours total gym time a month (in reality I sometimes don't reach even that).

see Mike Mentzer's Underground Seminar - Part X

[nikkyo34]

this workout is Mike Mentzer's consolidation workout which consists one day of deadlift, dips next workout squat, pullups

[alanhint]

Hi from Estonia! Thanks heaps for your cool comments. Yep - no gain without eating. Especially for me, cause I'm a real hard gainer.

I eat 5 times per day:

Meal 1: 3 egg whites + a protein shake + porridge

Meal 2: eat a pack of cottage cheese with 2 bananas

Meal 3: another pack of cottage cheese

Meal 4: chicken with pasta or rice

Meal 5: before bed, I drink another protein shake

To get the most out of it, there should be at least 1 more meal in my day. Haven't squeezed that in yet! ;)

[marjamprivate]

Good stuff, man! Tahan just selle Ferrisse 28-päeva programmi läbi teha, kui Eestis olen, you're one step ahead:) No superlahe oled!

[dajazman2k]

But dude. What about the nutrition? what is your diet like?

[nyclear]

@dajazman2k he is probably following the nutrition from the book.

[alanhint]

@nyclear True! I just posted a video response.

[nyclear]

@alanhint Cool! You are an inspiration.

[alanhint]

@dajazman2k Check it out! I just posted a video response!

[franster65]

Good video. Are you in Estonia? My friend SK sent me this link as he knows that I like to train. I will try this workout. Thanks, fc
