ENHANCED CD 3 * INCLUDES WORKOUT PROGRAMS TO GET YOU STARTED!

Thinner, bigger, faster, stronger... which section of the audiobook will you listen to?

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

Join author Tim Ferriss as he shares the incredible experiments he's done over 10 years to beat genetics and achieve the impossible ... for himself and more than 200 men and woman aged 18 to 70.

It's up to you to choose your own adventure: Want to lose 30 pounds of fat in 30 days without exercise? Run 50 kilometers after just 12 weeks of training? That's just the tip of the iceberg.

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.

Beware of this abridged version

I was excited about this book because I read 4-Hour Workweek, and I've really liked some of Tim Ferris's work, but after listening to this, I'm a bit disappointed. I think that Audible should do a better job of making it clear that a book is abridged, but that's an aside. This is a snippet of the book, and although parts are interesting, a lot of what's in this snippet has either been posted on his website or is common knowledge, at least to bodybuilders. Still, if you want to get an overview of what the print copy could offer it could be worth it. It's the type of book you'll need the print copy for anyway so that you can have it for reference.

Author's youth and naiveté are evident

This book is written by a 30-something year old man with his generation in mind. He is honest about the fact that he is not a physician or even a scientist, that he just "experiments" and for that I praise his honesty.

Early in the book talking about his prescribed eating for a slim body he says, a few times, that we should not be prepared to LIKE the food he's proposing but that we should just eat it for our health. All well and good. Then toward the end of the book, comparing people who follow calorie restricted diets he categorizes them as "wasted" and "unhappy" which he attributed to their not eating what they want .. and then he talks about how it's better to live shorter and be happy. Or be a little heavier and happy. Seems contradictory to his earlier statements and pushing body weight, fat % etc.


Ferris does explain, or try to explain, female sexuality and pleasure points, and I guess that chapter alone could sell the book, but I'm not sure it was worth the whole "read."

As stated earlier, there were at least half a dozen times listening to this book when I thought "ah, this author is so young .. " He doesn't deny it. Just take that into consideration when getting the book. I don't think it was worth a full credit!

great listen and incredible ready to use tactics

hella awesome can't wait to begin. I loved that he made a point to state that comprehension of everything is unnecessary but not understating the real work and expertise that gave these lil gold nuggets of ready to use truth

Game Changer.

New perspective pn how to make incremental small changes the lead to creating your best self

Eh

I was expecting more. I didn't even finish the book because it was extreme biased and unrealistic for most people.
