I found this site after reading the 4 Hour Body and was surprised at how much great content there is. I think I’m going to be spending a lot of time here for the next while!

Awesome show, glad to see you enjoyed South Africa. In terms of a better safari experience (which does cost quite a bit but is definitely worth it) go to Sabie Sabie. Its a private reserve in the Kruger park. Probably the best place to go to see South African wildlife. Remember that for next time :)

There is also a massive bungee jump in the Western Cape province at Bloukrans Bridge. I believe its one of the highest if not the highest bungee jump in the world.

I’m a South African and am yet to do 2 things which you have done. Shark cage diving and Climbing Lions head. I’ll add that onto my to do list this year :p

By the way The four hour body is awesome, will look at purchasing The four hour work week at some point this week.

Thanks for all the useful advice and happy new year

Cheers,
Nick

Thanks for the comment and kind words, Mike! I’ve actually met up with Kelly and agree that he’s a very, very smart dude. Thanks for reading!

Tim,

First time I’ve ever posted, so a big thank you is in order. Your book and blog have had a massive impact on my life – amazing stuff. Thank you so much.

Now, hopefully I can help you out a little.

With respect to your reliable 500lb deadlift… there are two coaches in San Fran that I couldn’t recommend more highly – Kelly Starrett and Adrian Bozman. Apart from being stellar in their own right, I believe they’ve both spent some time learning from epic powerlifter Louie Simmons (no doubt you’ve heard of Louie).

Kelly is also a first rate Physical Therapist – you may, in fact, discover there are some mechanical or impingement issues holding you back from lifting heavier.

They both work out of San Francisco CrossFit.

I’m sure you can find some outstanding help there that will assist you in crushing your 500lb target in no time.

Hope that helps and again, many thanks for all your amazing work.

Cheers,
Mike

Great video! Thanks for keep sharing random, cool & useful stuff. Have you heard of this tasty all natural Vietnamese brown rice noodle soup called Happy Pho? I came across the founders at Wholefoods San Mateo when they were giving out samples. Totally delicious stuff! Tastes just like the Pho I had when I was traveling in Vietnam, has organic green tea in the noodles, and cook in 10 mins.
