I just pre-ordered my copy of the 4-hour Body by Tim Ferris to be wirelessly delivered to my Kindle when it comes out on December 14th.

If you’ve read the 4-Hour Workweek by Tim you already know how amazing of a writer he is. And if you’re living the 4HWW Lifestyle like I am, you’ll be just as excited to read his new book as I am! Pre-order it in Hard-Copy so you’ll be the first one to get it when it comes out, or get it for your Kindle like I did.

Available on Amazon for $17.82 and $14.85 on Kindle

From the Author: Timothy Ferris


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, double sperm count, and (literally) have sex like a porn star
* 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.

I just pre-ordered 2 signed copies :)

Apparently it's a promotion for the first 3000 people!

Cool huh? I'm keeping one and I'm going to do a draw and give one away to my mailing list / customers.

Cheers

OP's link is an affiliate one. Canny niche marketing there.

Will be reading purely out of interest. Already have the body of a Greek god (in my lucid dreams!).

Preordered the signed copy although I have doubts that a master of the 4HWW would actually sign them all himself.

I ordered my copy just because of the signed copy option. And Tim has already said that he personally has signed the signed copies - so no worries there.

Looking forward to seeing how it compares to the 4HWW.

Wow my post really did sound hella spammy, but seriously I did order a copy through my kindle. I'll be training at a MMA Training camp in Phuket, Thailand from October 5th - January 3rd 2011 and really want to read this book.

I've been following it ever since I first read his articles on "becoming super human" and his diet of beans and meat.

I can't wait!!!!!!!!

Being the owner of two signed copies of the 4HWW, I can say that Tim honors his word there. His comments were even addressed to me, so he does take that seriously.

This is going to come just in time for me to train for the 2011 Tough Mudder competition! 2011 is going to be my year to get the body that I've always wanted. I'm flying to Thailand tonight train at an MMA gym for 3 months to kick start my diet and fitness. The 4-hour body is going to be a perfect motivation to my year!
