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.

Lots of interesting info but somewhat disconnected

Tim Ferriss's first book (4-hour Work Week) set my expectations pretty high for this book, as did all the pre-launch hype. Unfortunately, I felt a bit disappointed in this book after finishing it.

The 4-hour Body contains a bunch of information on a wide variety of subjects relating to the human body. While much of it is interesting, I only found some of it actually useful, and I'd already read about some of these topics on the author's blog. Each topic is quickly and succinctly summarized, but the transition between topics is often too abrupt. There are also some conflicting portions of the book, such as "don't eat any fruit except on cheat days" vs. "drink one cup of grapefruit juice every day" (for example.)

For this book to be really beneficial to a reader, it's necessary to just focus on a few sections and implement those recommendations, because there is no way anyone could ever do all the things described in this book at the same time.

pretty bad job abridging unfortunately.

I got some useful information but definitely had to follow up with a lot of my own research. I think that was due to too much being cut from the book.

Phenomenal and Funny.

This book was very entertaining. For example, the author makes learning about thermodynamics and cryotherapy exciting, motivating, and hilarious. If you care about learning some easy things to do to impact your entire life, this book is a must & very fun. I also liked the narrators style and sound.

Inspiring, Yet a Erratically Confusing

Although so much if the content is clearly well researched, the presentation, at least in abridged audio format, left me confounded as to where to begin. It's like a choose your own adventure book, but I need a navigator.

Interesting ideas-difficult to assimilate

This may be one of those books that's better read than listened
to. I found the ideas fascinating but I need to go back and look at the material more closely. I need to find the PDFs online. So far I haven't been successful.
