This is the one thing that I hear all the time from clients, they want to know what to do to get a six pack or a nice toned mid-section. Everyone one comes to the same conclusion that they just need to know the right number of crunches to do and they will have the toned abs that they dream of.

Four Hour Body: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

by Dave on February 16, 2011

I mentioned Tim Ferriss not too long ago, and brought up the fact that he was a best selling author, a lecturer, a pretty successful business man, masterful marketer and apparently a giant scam artist!

Well, some people really believe that he is a scam artist,  what he suggests could never be followed through with, he is all sizzle and no steak (I read at least three or four pages that used that exact phrase, figured I’d keep it going) and so on and so forth.

Now there are also others that say he has changed their lives, set them free, and opened a whole new world to them.

In short, its hard to know what to make of him or his new book the Four Hour Body.

As someone who has worked in the fitness profession for quite a while and been a huge fan of it for even longer I have grown to be a natural skeptic when there are fantastic claims being made about results.  Well Tim makes the word “fantastic” seem like a gross understatement with what he claims his book can do.  Of course its all marketing fluff, but when you claim to make people superhuman its bound to catch attention (his desired result, did you see where I mentioned masterful marketer up above).

So 600 pages later … let’s get down to what this book can or can’t give you
