The 4-Hour Body
An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman
Ferriss's self-experimentation manual for hacking the body, fat loss, muscle, sleep, and performance, via minimum-effective-dose protocols he tested on himself.
Ferriss applies his self-experimentation ethic to the body, cataloguing the minimum-effective-dose hacks he tested on himself to lose fat, gain muscle, improve sleep, and boost performance. Ranging from the slow-carb diet to cold exposure and unconventional exercise protocols, it reads as a sprawling, anecdote-heavy manual for tweaking human biology with the least effort. Not a rigorous science text so much as an n-of-1 lab notebook, it invites readers to experiment on themselves the way he does.
