"Four Hour Body" by Tim Ferriss

Thinner, bigger, faster, stronger... which 150 pages will you read?

Is it possible to:
Reach your genetic potential in 6 months?
Sleep 2 hours per day and perform better than on 8 hours?
Lose more fat than a marathoner by bingeing?

Indeed, and much more. This is not just another diet and fitness book.

The 4-Hour Body is the result of an obsessive quest, spanning more than a decade, to hack the human body. It contains the collective wisdom of hundreds of elite athletes, dozens of MDs, and thousands of hours of jaw-dropping personal experimentation. From Olympic training centers to black-market laboratories, from Silicon Valley to South Africa, Tim Ferriss, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek, fixated on one life-changing question:

For all things physical, what are the tiniest changes that produce the biggest results?

Thousands of tests later, this book contains the answers for both men and women.

From the gym to the bedroom, it's all here, and it all works.

YOU WILL LEARN (in less than 30 minutes each):
How to lose those last 5-10 pounds (or 100+ pounds) with odd combinations of food and safe chemical cocktails.

* How to prevent fat gain while bingeing (X-mas, holidays, weekends)
* How to increase fat-loss 300% with a few bags of ice
* How Tim gained 34 pounds of muscle in 28 days, without steroids, and in four hours of total gym time
* How to sleep 2 hours per day and feel fully rested
* How to produce 15-minute female orgasms
* How to triple testosterone and double sperm count
* How to go from running 5 kilometers to 50 kilometers in 12 weeks
* How to reverse "permanent" injuries
* How to add 150+ pounds to your lifts in 6 months
* How to pay for a beach vacation with one hospital visit




And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There are more than 50 topics covered, all with real-world experiments, many including more than 200 test subjects.

You don't need better genetics or more discipline. You need immediate results that compel you to continue.

That's exactly what The 4-Hour Body delivers.

@avittix I agree with you with the image he's presenting. I have followed him for the past three years ever since I read his four hour work week book (I know...) and he posted this experiment on his blog long ago. What he's saying is not gaining 30lbs per month on and on, but simply reaching our genetic potential with the least amount of work and time. He didn't come up with it. There have been such experiments done in the late seventies apparently. He simply repeated the experiment.

15 minutes in, and I still don't know what he is talking about...

What is this a bald man convention?

[30pipeliner]

I have listened to the 4hr body CDs and there is a ton of great information!!! One thing I am going to try that he suggests is the PAGG stack for weight loss!! I highly suggest that anyone wanting to change their life n loose weight listen or read the 4hr body!!

Interesting video! by the way my mother applied this famous weight loss diet named: Impact 790 Diet and decreased 16 pounds in a month. I can't remember the exact website just Google it.

dos equis was wrong - Tim Ferriss is the most interesting man in the world

[graycam]

too bad he's not an M.D. or scientist by training. It would add some credibility to his work.

[GhastlyOccurrences]

"Look for the outliers, study the outliers." Ferriss advocates looking at extremes--like the high school girl who deadlifts a ton--but I wonder how he goes about researching these extreme cases, in any pursuit.

[alitorstensen]

When he says no soy, does that include soy beans as well?

[XNinjaSebX]

I surprised TIm didn't suggested yellow pea, rice, hemp, sacha inchi or any other plant-based proteins to the woman asking about following the slow carb diet while vegan. Or even things like spirulina, hemp seeds, chlorella? =/
