The New Book Unveiled: The 4-Hour Body 1,113 Comments
Data crunching back to age 18. Three years of organizing self-experiments around the world. Thousands of blood tests and hundreds of case studies.
My new book is finally here: The 4-Hour Body.
I could not be happier with the end product. Truly, I am ecstatic.
If you want a minimalist guide to hacking the human body, this is it.
In each chapter (more than 50 topics total), I test everything on myself so you don’t have to. In “Reversing ‘Permanent’ Injuries,” for example, I tested the moderate options like over-the-counter supplementation and Feldenkrais, but I also imported stem-cell growth factors from Israel and had them injected. That was just for starters. The end result of that chapter? 90%+ of the injuries that plagued me for decades are now gone. I’m stronger and faster than I was at age 20.
If you want to know the two safe things out of 100 that worked abnormally well, I can tell you…
The 4-Hour Body is also designed to read unlike any diet or fitness book, which it isn’t. It’s more like a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure book for the human body, full of ridiculous stories, practical philosophies, and larger-than-life characters.
Here’s the back cover description:
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% using temperature manipulation
- 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 and double sperm count
- 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 visitAnd 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.
Now The Real Fun Begins
Here we go:
1) The ask
2) Big media opportunities for you
3) An offer to friends in media.
THE ASK:
I try not to ask for too much on this blog, but today I will ask a favor: if this book sounds interesting to you, please take a moment to order it today. I’ve never worked harder on something, it’s my sophomore act, and pre-orders are critically important in the publishing world.
The book is on-sale now but will ship on December 14th. Here’s why you should pre-order now:
- You will not be charged for the book(s) until they ship in December, but ordering (really like reserving) a copy now really, really helps me.
- What would make a better X-mas gift? My dad lost more than 70 pounds using two chapters. Please consider getting a few copies for your family, loved ones, or best friends. I promise that they will not be disappointed. Ordering now means you can’t forget.
- Last but not least, your help would mean the world to me. Pre-orders will largely determine how much support retailers give this book. It’s crazy, but only hardcover sales count towards the bestseller lists. If you’ve benefited from my last book or writing on this blog, I would really appreciate your help. This has been the biggest project of my life.
The 4-Hour Body is available on Amazon, BN.com, and these online retailers.
Thank you!
BIG MEDIA OPPORTUNITIES:
Have you lost weight, gained muscle, or otherwise changed your body as a result of blog posts I’ve written? If so, you could be featured on major TV and in big mainstream media. Please e-mail your details and (important, if you have them) pictures to jenny.rabun-at-gmail-dot-com. No professional before-and-after pics needed, but something that shows your before and after appearance, even in normal clothes, is helpful to producers.
Ladies — that means you, too! Help a brother out, and help your sisters out, by sharing your stories!
TO MEDIA, BLOGGERS, AND LIST OWNERS:
I’ve made very few media commitments thus far. Do you have a column, show, mailing list, or blog audience? Would you like to do a feature, an interview, or post an excerpt? Please click here to let me know. There is a ton of material, including case studies, video, and pictures.
Upward and Onward
Thank you all so much for the last three years. It’s been incredible.
The best is yet to come :)
Tim

What a great way to start off the year, with a brand new mind, body, and soul. The book is packed with so much good stuff, the easy slow-carb diet, kettlebell swings, and the brilliant section on polyphasic sleep. I’ve tried many other diet & exercise programs, Atkins, P90X, etc, and this one is by far the easiest and most realistic to follow. All of the other programs make it impossible to go to lunch with coworkers or dinner with friends w/o feeling like a complete social outcast. Thanks for all your hard work and ignore all the haters out there, I am living proof that your $*** works!

Hey Tim, Good luck on the new book. I’m looking forward to the read. I tried your weight lifting plan a couple years back, and enjoyed great results. Hope you have some MMA stuff in there too! Victor

September 29th, 2010
3:27 pm
Hey Tim, is there no way you can offer some signed copies to fans outside the US? I’m in the UK and Barnes&Noble want $18 shipping, which if I’m honest, I’d much rather spend on an extra copy of your book. I can tell you now, a few people will be getting this book for Xmas from me!
Thanks,
Freddie

Not to toot my own horn too much Tim, but after a decade and a half of non-dogmatic experimentation on myself and willing friends, you’re the only author out there (excepting Martin Berkhan I suppose) who I’ve always agreed with 100% on training and diet, and your fantastic results should be ample evidence for the skeptics out there. I’m really excited to see what can be learned from this new book and will spread the word far and wide. Thank you in advance for all the diligent work and for sharing so freely.

Any idea when the prerelease copies from the last book promo will ship? Great sales copy by the way, reminds me of the old school long copy landing pages minus the 10 pages of endorsements.
Looking forward to the book.

Tim-
This is the book I’ve been waiting for! Congrats on your second book. I hope it’s as successful, if not more, than the 4 Hour Work Week. After the book comes out I’d love to be a case study of some of the material, either to be posted on your blog or possibly an updated and revised edition down the road. Are you going to be looking into anything like that? Have a good one.

I can’t wait to read the book. The running chapter should be really great to read since I’m reading up on marathon training information and tactics since I’ve just started training for my first marathon. Nice title and great cover, maybe I won’t have to hide the book’s title while reading it this time.

Sounds like an interesting book – I really enjoyed the 4 Hour Workweek. But, I’m a 100% Kindle and iPad reader now. Is it possible to order Kindle versions today as well?

Already got the body, but still quite intrigued by the back cover description. I wonder if this information could help me making the basketball players I train more athletic. Looking forward to this!

Hi Tim.
Thank you very much for this book. I was waiting for it :). I think I am the first one to make the reserve.
Do you plan to translate the book into Spanish?
Greetings.
September 29th, 2010

Can’t wait for this book. Just bought 2 copies. Good luck with it reaching #1.
September 29th, 2010
3:35 pm
First let me start by giving you a super huge congrats on your book release!
Second, I’ll be sure to pick up a copy of your book. Sounds awesome.
Third, I’ve been on your diet plan for going on almost 3 weeks now. I haven’t been able to exercise as much as I’d like but hey. Who can…anyway, I’ve only lost about 8lbs but I have dropped two belt notches and I’ve had to buy new pants! I’ll be the first to admit I didn’t follow your suggestions exactly but I was pretty damn close! :)
Keep up the awesome work!
September 29th, 2010

Hey Tim, haven’t heard anything about the advance copies for those who bought 4 or more of the revised 4-Hour Work Week a while back. You mentioned they would go out even before any media got their hands on it… that still happening?
Looking forward to this one!
September 29th, 2010

Great … I’m buying this book! I hope I can find some information in your book to cure a physical (pain) problem! If you find 2min of time please send me an e-mail, I would like to ask you a question about it.

Hey Kim,
I would post the direct link to the site but I guess it comes off as spam. But you can check it out by googling “paincenter.stanford” which will bring you to their home page. Do a search for “Human body + pushing the limits”
You will find a video about a woman that had pain for years that wouldn’t go away, trying many different types of massage, therapy, accupuncture, etc. But researchers at the pain center in stanford have found methods of reducing the pain by 50% which is about the same to what most pain medications will do.
It is what the Shaolin monks do so they can perform the physical feats that the average person can’t. They study them in the video. I’ve trained with them and they are truly amazing. A 74 year old master was breaking bricks and along with other things.
Check it out, it really interesting!!!
September 29th, 2010
3:40 pm
Hey Tim, Pre-ordered the book. The way I see it even if I only get one paradigm shifting piece of info from this book, it will have been worth the $20. Keep cool, this one is gonna blow up much bigger than 4HWW.
September 29th, 2010
3:40 pm
2 months and a half? I cannot wait that long, man. Wow.
But seriously, congratulations. The book will be successful, I can fully assure you.
I wanted to ask you, are you exploring any disease topics in the book, how to treat particularly, I am pretty sure you have the preventive part down.
Thanks!

Congratulations on the book and the abso-genius marketing! With an “ask” like that, the “answering” is easy!
Got anything in there on pregnancy and childbirth? (Maybe that’s a fine follow-up to the 15-min. orgasm.)
Thank you for continuing to dispel myths of limitation – about worklife and now, about the body! Thank you for affirming the amazing nature of the human being, whether you knew you were doing that or not.

Hey Tim, I have the same problem as Freddie. I too would like to get hold of a signed copy, but the shipping to the UK is going to cost me $18. I’d much rather spend that on a second copy of the book for my brother. Any ideas?
Thanks

I Just ordered two copies! (Gotta love free shipping)
I’ll probably read the hell out of one, and attempt to keep the other in mint condition.
BTW Tim, after years in the making my 4-Hour Work Week influenced business is about to explode.
September 29th, 2010
3:55 pm
Done and done sir, definitely enthusiastic to support you in your sophomore effort. Best of luck.
Dec 14th shipping is perfect, I will be back home in NorCal from Peru for a month and have some time to read.
Looking forward to it.
btw, when are you headed back down here to South America again?
September 29th, 2010

Pre-ordered! This shall be interesting. Congratulation on that Tim.
September 29th, 2010

Does the preorder on Amazon.ca in Canada also include the signed copy? Great addition to your 4-Hour series.

Hi Tim,
First of all: congratulations on your new book! A new milestone in your life, I can imagine. I’m a big fan of your innovative and creative way of looking at things. You seem to look at the (old, ‘normal’) reality (work, weight, health) with a curiosity as if it were the first time you ever saw it: In your eyes a workweek of 50 hours looks like 4. This makes great changes possible. Thank you for it! I will order some copies of your new book. I really loved your last one. Keep up the good work!
Kind regards from The Netherlands,
Jorrit.

Ordered autographed book and CD. I’m a big fan of your 1st book, blog, and Random Show. I’m very excited to check out this book!

September 29th, 2010

I pre-ordered a small bunch, and I’d love to participate in a phone Q&A, but the form your assistant (I presume) has set up doesn’t fit international phone numbers. I hope it’s still possible to join in – anyway, there’ll be a non-working phone number on the entry having my email.
Best of luck, Tim, I’m really looking forward to this.

Congrats on getting the book done. Your first book changed my life… maybe this one will change my body. Keep rocking!
September 29th, 2010

15 minutes for a female orgasm? If it takes that long, you’re doing it wrong! 15 minutes is enough time for at least 2 or 3.
September 29th, 2010
4:09 pm
Haha… I’m talking about DURATION.
September 29th, 2010

Don’t be such a wuss Freddie and bite the bullet with the shipping! You’re getting a first edition SIGNED copy of this book in $’s. Go into Hatchards on Oxford and you’ll get a signed first edition for MORE! $18 for making your wife happy for the remainder of your life is a bargain!
31.00 USD = 19.6278 GBP

Tim,
Congratulations on your new book. You are to be commended for the tremendous amount of work you have put into the R&D for lifestyle design and now into the human body. Having been introduced to you just prior to the launch of 4HWW your marketing strategies on how you amassed a huge following is an amazing case study in itself. It’s one thing to have a plethora of knowledge/experience and totally another to have the wherewithal and marketing savvy to spread your message and create community by challenging the status quo – such as you did. I’ve really enjoyed the insightful blog posts as well as the many fantastic resources. I look forward to reading the new book and if it’s anything like the four-hour work week I will be happy to endorse it…Talk soon
Best of luck,
Craig

Thanks Tim.
I’m super pumped for you. The book looks totally fantastic.
I’ve pre-ordered two signed copies from Barnes & Noble. I’ll also snag a Kindle copy at launch.
A big congrats to you my friend.

I just ordered my copy. I read the teaser on the earlier post, but the new details sound like the book is even better than I anticipated.

Done – 2 books ordered – good luck Tim!
September 29th, 2010
4:03 pm
Already ordered, even though shipment costs almost as much as the book. I have a feeling that this is going to be BIG. Bigger than everything the world has seen so far in terms of book publishing and marketing. Tim – I’m sure this is going to work extraordinarly well – I’ve never ordered anything from the US yet – you are the first person who convinced me.
September 29th, 2010

Great news! Just uploaded my screenshot.
Please fix the phone number fields. They don’t allow for either international numbers nor for cellphone numbers!

Hey Tim,
Very good news and an original title…..
Congrats with the finished product.
You can send me one, I will review it on my site for free ;-)
All the best,

Congratulations on the achievement, Tim.
When you were out in Cape Town, I asked you what you would do differently to market the book, and as you said then, you’re more or less following the same path as you did the first time round. If it ain’t broke, right?
The 4-Hour Workweek was a revelation and strolls into my top 5 business books ever. I have no doubt you’ll knock this out the park, and even if I don’t follow through on everything I read, I trust it’l be a riot to read, nevertheless.
Good luck.

Does the “Sleep 2 hours per day” blurb refer to polyphasic sleep (i.e. “uberman” sleep?).
If so, did you try it?
I spent 4-5 months of my life addicted to the polyphasic pseudoscience pushed by internet communities and bloggers and essentially wasted half a year attempting to “adapt” to the uberman schedule. It was the biggest mistake of my life and it screwed over my health in remarkable ways.
I’m now a chronic insomniac, went through a suicidal phase, have little to no energy or sex drive… I’m slowly improving (doctors, therapy — I’m absolutely not kidding), but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. (My early 20s age may have something to do with my apparent susceptibility to chronic sleep deprivation).
September 29th, 2010

Super job, Tim! 4HWW changed my life. Literally. I submitted contact information via your Google Docs form. I’m on board with your phenomenal sophomore effort! All hail capitalism…proceeds to benefit the organization you inspired me to start:

I hope it’s worth it, since shipping to Holland isn’t that cheap :P

Done and done. I live in Korea so shipping is almost as much as the book itself! But (and let me guess that this is exactly what you want to hear) I am convinced it will be worth it judging by your first book and blog posts.
And how about for book number three? “The Four Hour Life” (A compendium of life hacks)
September 29th, 2010
4:21 pm
Bought a copy.
Are you interested / intending on organising referral sellers through your own website or similar?
I’m practising life mastery and doing the fitness thing the p90x way atm (which is tuff!). Shit, if I can do it in 4 hours, all the better!
Msg me if you’d like a copy of an ebook I am writing on other elements of life mastery.
September 29th, 2010

Hey Tim,
What about those of us who got the 5 copies of your book last December? We still getting an advanced, signed copy?
September 29th, 2010
4:23 pm
Hi Aaron and all who bought 5+ 4HWW copies a while back,
Yes, yes, yes! Please look for an email from my assistant Amy today. Thanks again!
Best,

Retweeted already, and two signed hard copies on order! And I’ll get my Kindle copy once the release date is here. I’m anxious to read about the 2-hr sleep per day.
September 29th, 2010
4:26 pm
You know, I balked at the price tag, thought I’d wait for it on Kindle, but then I thought, how much time and energy did 4HWW and this blog add to my life? How much did I benefit from Tim’s training recommendations, when I found that I could build nice muscles and strength in a month?
How much money have I saved following Tim’s advice from 4HWW?
I admit that I’m skeptical about some of Tim’s claims, and I wish some of his advice had more rigorous evidence to back it up, but I’ll give it a go.
I went ahead and ordered two signed copies. Looking forward to getting them!
September 29th, 2010
4:29 pm
Hey Tim,
Awesome to see this.
A couple of questions:
1) Can you get signed copies through Amazon?
2) I like to order Kindle versions of books when I can (I think book form is silly these days — IMHO). What incentives, if any, are there to pre-ordering a Kindle/Nook/eReader version? (I’m preordering anyway, just curious)
3) Does the Q&A apply for 5 e-versions, # of e-versions equivalent to 5 books, or none?
Also, side-note:
Your “notify me” button at the bottom should be when somebody responds to your specific post, not whenever anybody adds a comment to this post. This way I will know if anybody (particularly, you) is (are) actually addressing my questions or not.
September 29th, 2010
4:30 pm
Tim,
I noticed just now, after I ordered two signed copies of the book – the price just dropped on the signed copies by about 4 bucks a piece?
How do we know when the 3000 are gone? I might snag a few more at the lower price.
Thanks
September 29th, 2010
4:32 pm
Congrats Tim! Guess what everyone is getting for Christmas this year?!
September 29th, 2010

Congrats Tim! I can’t wait to get my hands on the new book. Just pre ordered 5 books. Will They be signed copies if I bought them from the link above?

Pre-ordered from the UK, I’m stoked about this book and if its as controversial as the paleo post, its going to be a excellent read.
September 29th, 2010
4:41 pm
Hi Tim,
Just caught your tweet about your new book, just before going to bed (europe- time). So now 1 hour later, i am writing you that i ordered for the whole family and friends :-). I never ordered books that are not published. But considering i first read your book in english and not too long ago got the dutch version, to uinderstand your story and tips better. So I yes I am a fan. Hope to still be one when those books arrive in December, it better be ;-) . I am confident you have exceeded yourself. Congratulations on this tremendous work. It must have been thrilling for you to write this blogpost about having a new book. A toast to the four hour Body and new knowledge and a slim and more healthy body.
Kind regards,
Danielle
A tip, i needed to fill in telephone nr, and as i am in Holland i had to fake a number otherwise i could not send the form out.
September 29th, 2010
4:44 pm
Thank you, Danielle and all!
If any of you have trouble with the “phone number” field in the form, please just use a fake number. No problem at all.
All the best,
Tim
September 29th, 2010

Tim you have proven again that nothing is quite as good as genuine excitement and great marketing.
Many think, some write … you do!
I look forward to the new book.
September 29th, 2010
4:43 pm
Damn! I wish you did this special through Amazon, as I just pre-ordered your book through them since I have Amazon Prime. :(
September 29th, 2010

Just ordered a copy..looking forward to it.
Thanks

Thanks for another awesome book! I lost around 10 pounds in only 4 days on your diet, and I’m not super fat or anything, either. Unfortunately I had to quit the diet because of monetary concerns, but hopefully I can get back on it and get off this cheap garbage soon!
I’d been wanting to go paleo before I read your post, so that was the catalyst for me! Good luck with the pre-orders.
September 29th, 2010
4:47 pm
Congratulations on your new book. Your article/review of Vibram FiveFingers is what prompted me to give them a shot and that really did change my life as well as the lives of many others via the so-on-and-so-on stage. I’ve been looking forward to see what you’ll share with us next. Five copies have been ordered and I’ll probably be back for more. Best wishes.
September 29th, 2010
4:47 pm
Looks solid Tim.
And btw, if you didn’t have every girl within a 200 mile radius chasing you around already, I’m betting this book seals the deal.
Good luck man, you’re gonna need it ;)

4:51 pm
OMG I absolutely cannot wait! Pre-ordered two, not even sure what on earth I’ll do with copy 2. From the line of thinking that created the 4-hour Work Week, Tim, I always felt like you’re my long lost twin brother I’ve never met — except with an IQ about 30 points higher =)
I’m guessing you will promote HIT-style workouts in the book, something I already do, along with an assortment of all the other things completely rational and that make perfect sense but which most people have never heard of! (I’m guessing most will be new to me.)
September 29th, 2010
4:52 pm
Hey TIm,
In this book do you go into more detail about how to cut weight quickly (example 48 hours before a weight in). I know you have the blog post already, but, I’m after some more hints and tips for this.
Cheers!
September 29th, 2010

Tim, do you have a blog or website for the new book? I tried looking for one and it only led me to a domain squatter’s webpage. Looks like they grabbed all variations of the Four Hour Body already. :p
September 29th, 2010
5:11 pm
Hey Bernard,
Much more coming soon. I imagine I own quite a few of those domains, but squatters will be squatters :)

Hey Tim! Great book!! In 4 days I’ve lost 6lbs!!! Amazing! However, my husband and I are trying to get pregnant. Is this safe to continue eating this way if I become pregnant? I did read don’t take PAGG. I’m just wondering bc I keep loosing weight and want to know how being pregnant would affect this weight loss while I should be gaining weight with a pregnancy. Is it listed in the book? I can’t find it.
Thanks!
September 29th, 2010

Can’t wait to read it.
Cheers for all your hard work amigo.

This is great! I like the branding going on here, lots of potental for more “4-hour” products down the line…like 4-hour energy!!!!!!!
September 29th, 2010

On it like flies on sh*t. So stoked!
September 29th, 2010

Ah hell…. bought another five too. Couldn’t stop myself. :)
Even if it’s only half the impact of 4HWW had on my life, it’ll be worth it.
September 29th, 2010
5:07 pm
You’ve definitely piqued my curiosity! Placed my pre-order; hopefully I’ll manage to score one of the first 3k copies!
September 29th, 2010
5:09 pm
Does it matter if it is ordered from B&N or Amazon to you Tim? As long as it’s a hardback right?
September 29th, 2010
5:11 pm
Congratulations on the new book! It looks like another amazing read. Pre-ordered mine! :)
September 29th, 2010

5 books pre-ordered…that takes care of 4 Christmas gifts for friends. Tim, you should have a lot of new fans after the holidays.
September 29th, 2010
5:15 pm
No brainer pre-order here folks. Congrats Tim and I can’t wait to read it.
September 29th, 2010

just bought 2 copies at B&N, signed ones to boot!
Thank you for everything you do, Tim – you are a true inspiration!
September 29th, 2010

Just ordered my advanced copy… an experimentalist myself, i’m pretty excited for it…
also, submitted a request for an interview when the book comes out.. would love to discuss it on my site.
thanks!
September 29th, 2010
5:18 pm
C’mon Tim. Why no ebook version. I have two Kindles and an Ipad and I don’t think I will ever buy a standard book again. The last 114 books I have bought have all been ebooks.
September 29th, 2010
5:19 pm
Hey Tim,
I’m stoked about the new book. This is a serious question btw.
Have you explored any form of male organ enlargement during your physical experiments? I know a lot of so-called experts dismiss it as a crock but I haven’t seen any real long-term studies on it. Is this explored in your book at all?
I have seen some underground online communities/forums that explore it as seriously as some of the pickup artist guys do dating, so I think there may be something there. Google “bib hanger forum” and see for yourself if you haven’t already.
Although I’m sure a lot of people will dismiss this as the proverbial b.s., there are a lot of guys who would love to see something like this thoroughly tested and presented to the mainstream by an authority such as yourself. Aside from the obvious size enhancement, there are also reported added sexual benefits such as improvement or the cure of erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Not to mention just better overall sexual health.
I know as an avid follower of your blog that you pull no punches and are very straightforward when it comes to helpful information (especially in the sexual and physical arenas). I’d love to hear your thoughts on this in the comments.
Thanks
September 29th, 2010
5:21 pm
Hi Casper,
Thx for the comment. I didn’t look at the enlargement question in the book, but I did look at almost all of the other sexual issues you mentioned.
Hope that helps!
Tim

Just Awesome. Pre-Ordering NOW. Best of luck!
September 29th, 2010
5:29 pm
Awesome!
Back in 2007, the 4HWW changed my life with respect to work/business/education/etc. (not to mention the many friends I’ve forced to read it over the years). Your blog has continually been an inspiration and now I’m looking forward to doing more ‘hacking’ with my body. So stoked!
5 copies pre-ordered!
September 29th, 2010

Just ordered 10 copies! Can’t wait for the Kindle version to come out as well!

You have created heaps of value for me with your blog and last book.

September 29th, 2010
5:36 pm
The Kindle version is available for preorder on Amazon now. I don’t think the NYT’s list takes digital sales into account, though. Sorry Tim.
Can’t wait to read this. That said, I’m not thrilled with the title or cover. I understand why you wanted to continue with the successful 4-Hour theme. What happened to “Becoming Superhuman”?
September 29th, 2010
7:27 pm
Hey Ty,
Lots of reasons for the title and the cover. I’ll be doing a behind-the-scenes look at the process once the book is out. Had to make some political compromises on the superficial stuff (cover, etc.), but the content was 100% me.
Best,
Tim
September 29th, 2010
5:36 pm
Looks great Tim, congrats! One Kindle edition pre-ordered, hope that helps.
Pity I can’t get a signed Kindle edition – maybe you can mail me a picture of a dedication? ;-)
September 29th, 2010
5:36 pm
Pre-Ordered!!! I wish it was out now!!
September 29th, 2010
5:37 pm
Done. Ordered two copies. I will probably regret not buying more signed copies for Christmas gifts. Can’t wait to read it!
September 29th, 2010
5:40 pm
Congrats on getting it out! You just got an order of 5 signed books from me and I can’t wait to read my copy. It’s the least I can do to give back for all of the usual knowledge you’ve shared through the 4HWW and this blog. I’m sure there is still much more to learn from you and your experiments!
If I ever meet you in person I’ll be sure to thank you again and buy you a drink.
Cheers!
September 29th, 2010

Geez people, didn’t you read the 1st book?
He got a writer in India to write this book for him while he was at the beach….

Man, I wish. That would have saved me a lot of trouble. Hard to outsource eating, though…
September 29th, 2010

Thank you for choosing to be born in this era.
Just ordered a trio. Can’t wait to share them.
Wish you the best of the best.
September 29th, 2010
5:46 pm
Congratulations on the book Tim! It must have been hard keeping so many of the details of the book in the dark until now. I pre-ordered from amazon because I have Prime, hopefully that doesn’t negatively effect you too bad bypassing B&N.
September 29th, 2010
5:48 pm
Tim,
Been following your blog a very long time. Love all your info man. I just pre-ordered the book can’t wait.
September 29th, 2010
5:50 pm
Imagine the online following you will have after this is released? Madness. You won’t need any advertising for your “Junior” book, just a quick “go buy my new book, bitch” on twitter and the New York Times will have a new #1.
Would be an awesome case study.
September 29th, 2010
5:51 pm
For everyone asking, there seems to be a Kindle version available through Amazon. I do not believe it comes signed though… ;)
September 29th, 2010
5:56 pm
I’m backpacking around Southeast Asia, currently chilling in Cambodia for about $6 a day, my flight back to the States is on December 14th. Could it be fate? Two signed copies ordered. I was planning on putting your Workweek advice into action when I returned. Now I can become superhuman too! Very excited Tim. 2011 is going to be a very good year for us all!
Peace,
Collin

Excited about the book Tim. Hopefully, you didn’t outsource your book signing? :)
September 29th, 2010
10:42 pm
Signed every last one. I can’t understand how authors can live with themselves if they outsource signatures. Totally not cool. I actually made a meditation of sorts out of it and did about 100 at a time, chipping away at odd moments. Strangely, it was kind of fun.
Tim
September 29th, 2010
6:01 pm
Sweet dude
What’s the go with ordering for kindle, still going to be released in dec like the hardback?
The reason I ask is that I’m in Australia and amazon and B&N book orders can take weeks to get here, particularly at xmas and don’t want to wait another few weeks after ordering!
September 29th, 2010
6:02 pm
Pre ordered,
Least I could do for everything you have done.
Thanks Tim!
September 29th, 2010
6:03 pm
Ordered! Can’t wait for this one!
Just wondering if you got anything worked out in regards to a 15 minute “O” for us guys? Haha can you imagine?
Oh, and Tim, if you could simply put “signature #0001″ next to your signature that would be great.
September 29th, 2010
6:03 pm
Pre-ordered and didn’t even hesitate. 4HWW was huge for me…can’t wait for the new book.
September 29th, 2010
6:06 pm
Hey Tim,
Congrats on the new book. Considering I have the original, audio, and updated versions of 4HWW, ordering 5 copies of this version seemed the next logical step. Hopefully I can put it to good use and have something to contribute to the revised version in a couple years like I did with 4HWW. Thanks for including my story. (see p 173).
September 29th, 2010
6:11 pm
Ordered mine!
Can’t wait!
September 29th, 2010
6:11 pm
Pre-ordered! Can’t wait until this ships, glad I was able to catch some signed copies before they sold out, hope shipping doesn’t end up taking too long to Canada!
September 29th, 2010
6:13 pm
A dual ebook/kindle & hard copy version would be great!
September 29th, 2010
6:18 pm
Tim: Couldn’t you wait a little longer to tell us about it? I have been obsessing about your book for too long now and I was almost cured!
I am part of your 5,000 true fans so off I go to B&N.
Will you cover anything on the Paleo diet?
Ah!, congratulations on the book.
September 29th, 2010

Bought it, shipping to AUS :)
September 29th, 2010

So much win.
September 29th, 2010
6:21 pm
I was going to wait for a Kindle edition, but wanting to give back for all the great content you put out for free on your blog, I just picked up two.
Also, I’d gladly trade back the signed editions to give to other fans for two unsigned books and your promise that I’ll never have to see another picture or video of you wearing Vibrams ever again.

Hey,
What’s the scoop on Kindle vs. Hard copy and how that affects the author’s take home?
Nate’s post sparked a thought……kindle prices are almost always 1/3 or so of full retail (who actually pays full retail other than in airports these days?)
perhaps the kindle affect only impacts the publisher?
Maybe $9.99(typical kindle book price) is a sum of all the margin made along the way by amazon, the publisher, and the author……?
Would be interested to know your thoughts on this Tim…..as you are always very willing to share insights into profits, structures, and who all has “fingers in the pie”
September 29th, 2010
6:22 pm
I feel there will be many eBay auctions ;-) Congrats Tim!!! I’ve been waiting for this book… ever since you mentioned about it. And just in time for Christmas! Preorder is in ;)
September 29th, 2010

That 15 minute orgasm is definitely worth the money. Lucky girls, here I come.
September 29th, 2010

Just ordered two copies…
Only just started reading 4HWW two weeks ago.
Really appreciate the non-standard approach to achievement.
September 29th, 2010
6:23 pm
Ok, you sold me. I just pre-ordered. Good luck with your new book, Tim.
September 29th, 2010
6:24 pm
Hello Tim,
I just ordered 2 signed copies ($31.06 what a deal!) of the hardback because I love your writing style and I am not cheap.
I never wrote or commented before because it is a dumb/pointless way to communicate so this is probably it. The Elizabeth Gilbert TED talk was great. I don’t expect impossible things of artists, so I will still like your work if your book flops.
I look forward to watching it selling millions and opening doors for your future success.
I am excited that you are excited so stay happy.
In thoughts,
JoeM
P.S. Are you able to comment as to Ray Porter doing the narration of this book too? I can’t find a thing about this no matter how many different phrasings I put into Google – he is the man.
September 29th, 2010

“it’s my *sophomore* act”
Well said!
September 29th, 2010
6:25 pm
What is your definition of bingeing? Could be heavily mis-interpreted by ill-minded dieters, do you discuss eating disorders like bulimia in this book? Other than that sounds like a great new interesting read.
September 29th, 2010
6:26 pm
If anyone can drop the pre-order link to Amazon that would be awesome as I have a Prime account. I can’t seem to find anything but the CD on there. Thx.
September 29th, 2010
6:31 pm
Tim!
I’m having trouble convincing people that this is anything but a scam. They keep saying that it’s against modern scientific research. What can I do? ><
September 29th, 2010
7:20 pm
Hi Howard,
I suppose they’ll have to wait for the book. Rest assured, there are plenty of studies. 500+ references, if I’m not mistaken. In the meantime, you can ask them to point you to the “scientific research” they cite. I’ll be debunking a lot of that stuff. There is good science out there, but there is much more bad science.
All the best,
Tim

It’s so nice to finally know the name of the book. I used your body building suggestions with significant success this summer (although I added far fewer pounds of muscle than you did, must be the lack of No-Xplode).
I was wondering if the book had any suggestions on how to stay the same. I know many people are looking to bulk up or cut weight, but I’ve hit the Greek ideal proportions as determined by my wrist size and would rather remain the same size and shape.
I also wondered if there were any suggestions for people who play sports that favor one side of the body such as fencing or squash. I haven’t been disciplined enough with these to become imbalanced but I’m sure that’s not something to look forward to.
I know I could wait until December, but I might be in Israel (preordered to Pittsburgh) and you’ve piqued my interest.
Thanks
(I’m in for two by the way)

Just ordered 2 copies. Looking very forward to this book! Will probably order a 3rd, unautographed copy, to actually read.
Thanks, Tim!
September 29th, 2010
6:42 pm
Ordered! …and congratulations!
Can’t wait for the book. To date, CrossFit has helped me with muscle building more than any other program, but I REALLY look forward to putting your 28 day experiment to the test.
Brilliant marketing as always – that back cover copy is awesome! Who is your copywriter? Actually, I guess you are, right? I need to apply more of your ‘how to write headlines to get attention’ and use them all in a row like that. Great job!

Chad,
I believe this is the link you’re looking for:
http://www.amazon.com/4-Hour-Body-Uncommon-Incredible-Superhuman/dp/030746363X/ref=sr_1_1?s=gateway&ie=UTF8&qid=1285810868&sr=8-1
Not to harp, but it was the first hit when I searched for 4 hour body.
September 29th, 2010
6:45 pm
Goodness, SO excited about this!! I have been waiting for months and months for this book to come out! Unfortunately I have to wait two more months. But hey, I pre-ordered two copies. One for me, one for my brother. I really think he’ll enjoy it even though he’s not a huge book reader.
Thank you so much for writing this!
Still working on my business(es) to automate, but hey, at age 18, I think I’m doing all right. I don’t know any other teenagers who have their own business and ideas for a few others.
September 29th, 2010
6:45 pm
Done – 2 books ordered, one for me, one for hubbie. Gutted it won’t be here in time for Xmas as we are in NZ and delivery will take at least 7 working days, but its the hubbies post Xmas belly for which the book will probably be the most use!
Equally – I’m due mid Jan, so hopefully will be able to put the info in the book to use to get pre baby body back ASAP.
Just curious, did you yourself experiment with polyphasic/uberman schedules yourself? Do you still?
Looking forward to end of Dec! Congrats Tim.
September 29th, 2010

Ordered. By the time B&N added shipping & tax I was better off with AMZN.
Looking forward to the book–altho it looks like a lot of your blog posts.
September 29th, 2010
6:49 pm
The 4HWW has helped me so much that anything you put out, I’ll buy (as if you don’t already have 1000 true fans already). I have to wait for the Kindle edition though, since I’m all over the map these days and need to travel light.
September 29th, 2010

Just got 2 copies. Hope you crush your sales goal. All the best.
September 29th, 2010
7:00 pm
Hey Tim
Congratulations on your new book. I can’t wait to read it. I’ve been getting so juiced up reading all your diet posts. And now I’m looking forward to reading about how you reversed your “permanent” injuries. Having reversed a few permanent injuries and chronic diseases myself, I find this topic particularly interesting.
Best of luck for another #1 best seller.
September 29th, 2010
7:03 pm
4HWW = your best lifestyle, 4HB = your best body, now we just need a 4H what to do after we all turn 45 and have to settle down. 4H car pool? You know you’ll be hacking that shit!
Great stuff, got me and mine a copy. My advent calendar just got about 7 weeks longer.
September 29th, 2010

Can’t wait to get the new book, order is placed. Keep up the great work!!!
September 29th, 2010
7:04 pm
Hi Tim,
Just preordered through B&N. It didn’t say anything about getting a signed copy. How do I know that’s what I bought and that’s it’s one of the first 3000 ordered? Hopefully I got once since it would have been easier and cheaper to buy it through Amazon in Canada. Looking forward to your next great book!

September 29th, 2010
7:11 pm
I’m curious if you did any testing on your new title? If not, are you taking a big risk on your title? Hope I didn’t strike a nerve.
Also, did you have a staff or a product development team behind you on this one? It seems like such a monumental undertaking.
I respect your passion and appreciate how open you are with us on many fronts. All the best in your book launch and climb to #1.
Cheers, Andrew

Pre-order submitted.
Tim, I am one of the rare few (only one, perhaps?) who is ordering your second book without having read the first one yet. It’s near the top of my to-read list, but unfortunately that list has been set aside lately due to time and budget constraints. Methinks I need to start making some more progress on that list again.
I have been quietly following your blog for a while, and it is always a pleasure to read your posts. Keep up the outstanding work.
September 29th, 2010
7:18 pm
I’d love to contribute since I read 4 Hour Work Week and enjoyed it, but will there be a digital version (on Kindle or iBooks) coming out soon? I’m overseas and it’s not very practical for me to buy a hardcover book.
September 29th, 2010
7:19 pm
I know you didn’t design the cover or pick the colors yourself, but I LOVE the burnt orange and navy blue…. War Eagle!
Got one copy to read and pass along, and another to keep for myself!
September 29th, 2010
7:22 pm
Five signed copies ordered… Christmas shopping done! Really looking forward to this book. Thanks for all the info and inspiration in the past. So far hubby and I are both “working” from home and I have lost 24 lbs total (oh, and ran I triathlon training only kettlebells, weights and sprints). Not too bad, I guess, for a stay at home mom of three kids under 4.
Thanks Tim!
September 29th, 2010

Nice, Katie! Them kettlebells have some weird (good) side-effects, right? Crazy transfer to endurance.
Un abrazo,

Congrats Tim!

/sigh I ordered it from barnes and nobel who ship via ups. While I support the pre-buy I have an ugly feeling that when my parcel arrives in Canada I’ll be paying up the bum in duties and other crap ups charges, plus I probably won’t get it until after Christmas.
I hope for the best! But, expect the worst. It’s okay I’m sure the book will be worth it in the end :)

Soooooooooo excited. Have been looking forward to this for months!

Thaaaaaaanks, Tim! I know this will be a great resource.
September 29th, 2010

Thank you Tim!! I just won a $2,000 that 4 Hour Body would be the name!! Use $50 to buy 3 copies and the rest is getting donated! Keep up the great work!!

So thrilled you’re giving the majority back. If we ever meet, first round of drinks is on me.

I’ve bought one copy and considering 4 more (expensive to ship to Australia). Any idea what time the QA session will be at? It’s difficult finding conference calls that aren’t at 4am. That won’t matter once I’m sleeping 2 hours per night.
September 29th, 2010

Hi Tim,
Is there an electronic copy (e-book) available for purchase from somewhere (for those who don’t want to wait until Dec 2010) or you haven’t written the book yet? :)

If this book does 1/10 of what your first book did for me, it will be well worth the investment.
Keep up the great work Tim!
September 29th, 2010
7:43 pm
Can I just get a preview of the basic concepts of how to sleep for only 2 hours a night (if it doesn’t affect learning). I have some exams I need to pass. Totally serious. I swear I’ll buy 5 copies for this. Something to do with polyphasic sleeping? Pill? High protein?
September 29th, 2010
7:43 pm
Hi Tim,
Locked and loaded, looking forward to a great xmas read!
I ordered from your link, but on the Receipt it just says “Hardcover”, not “Hardcover – Signed Edition” have you sold through these already?
I have really enjoyed reading your stuff over the last few years!

Preordered, and looking forward to this book, as I’ve been living the 4HWW lifestyle for 2 years now and moved to improving quality of life as a primary goal.
I’m wondering — does this contain more detail about why most grains are bad, and how best to replace them in your diet?

Two copies ordered with express shipping to Australia :D. Cant wait for December.
A question, did you experiment with melanotan or other peptides for this book? I’m not sure of the legality in America but peptides are certainly an interesting “body-hacking” method
September 29th, 2010

Hey Tim. I just ordered 2 copies of the book. It was great meeting you last night at the Samovar Tea Lounge in SF. Very inspiring stuff!
Also….I overhear quite a few people talking about P90X. I assume you have tried, or de-bunked this …..thoughts?
Looking forward to spreading the word…
Cheers,

Tim–I’m really more concerned about the 15 minute male orgasm. Maybe you can incorporate this into how to quickly/effectively reduce non-vital water percentage to make weight.

Of course… brilliant title. I will buy the book and most likely any other book you write. You may aspire to be super human but you are more importantly in my view a lovely human being. Thanks for all the fun.
Rock on Tim.

Hi Tim, just a quick question, I understand the benefits of increased levels of carnosine in the muscles, but would you suggest histidine supplementation in conjunction with beta-alanine? Just curious because I’ve recently started supplementing with beta-alanine and want to get the most out of it.
Thanks,
Freddie

Just preordered my copy.. don’t mind waiting at all.. listened to the original 4hww 10 times on loop with my ipod one summer instead of listening to co-workers in the office- the information single handedly moved me from the corporate world to entrepreneurship.
Thanks

You’re a riot. I’ll be sending you some pictures I have taken over the last two months as I began the slow-carb diet (after a year’s worth of bingeing). For now I have to go get 7.5 hours of sleep because your book isn’t out yet.
What kind of Q&A session can I get for taking you fishing in Alabama…with lots of beer?

I never pre-order books but you are worth it so I pulled the trigger cause you asked. Curious to see what you have in there about any sport specific training you might have done to augment bjj or martial arts abilities.
Thanks and look forward to it!

Tim! I need your help!
I just bought 10 copies (I’m a HUGE fan) from an internet cafe in Munich. I don’t have access to Paint, so I couldn’t take the screenshot, but I used my digital camera. Unfortunately, I also don’t have access to the SD ports here. Surely there’s some other way for me to get my goodies? Maybe I can forward the order confirmation email?
Prost!

Tim,
First of all I’m so happy and grateful that after following your diet and exercise articles in the past year I’ve lost 30 lbs, improved my physical wellness tremendously and I’ve become healthy as a horse!
All that time since then I’ve never gone back to the hospital for illness! This new book of yours is as good as bought!
Cheers!

SUPER stoked for this new book, Tim!
I’m definitely in better shape now (at 29) than I was 10 years ago thanks to becoming obsessed with rock climbing. I’m always looking for ways to get leaner and meaner — can’t wait to see what you’ve got in there!!
Thank you so much in advance for all the hard work and self-experimentation you did to bring us this invaluable information. Truly — thank you.
Hooray!!

As a small thank you for all the well researched, free info on your blog I ordered 5 copies (two separate orders though, hope that is no problem).
The tips on hacking sleep have been pure gold – cottage cheese before bed, who’d have though it would make such a difference. I even buy it at local grocery stores when on vacation now.
Thanks for putting the time into passing it all along. It is changing lives, though I can only account first hand for one.
Particularly looking forward to the treatise on sleep. It seems we share some common difficulties shutting down at night.

Really looking forward to this read. I have spent my lifetime doing all the wrong experiments with my mind and body and am sorely suffering for it now. I’m excited to see what difference your suggestions will make to my overall lifestyle and perspective too. Thanks for putting all your thoughts down in a way that everyone can process :).
September 29th, 2010

Pre ordered two copies :).
One question I wanted to put to you. Have you ever/considered running a bootcamp, using these techniques, for the kinesthetic students out there?
September 29th, 2010
10:44 pm
I’m really astonished: “I test everything on myself so you don’t have to.” and “How to produce 15-minute female orgasms”. That might be something really cool to do: male produces 15-min-female-orgasm to himself. :)
Anyway: Great title, great cover… looking forward for it. All the best!
September 29th, 2010
10:52 pm
Hey Tim,
In for 5! When I was browsing through Twitter last night on my phone, I glanced over your post on your new book, at first I thought, “Eh, if he get’s bad press on this then it may negate a lot of valid ideas in 4HWW.”
It’s risky because topics like sex and fitness have been covered heavily and their are such ranging ideologies that I’m curious what are you bring to the table? I’m a bit skeptical, until I see reviews, but I can’t help but be curious.
September 30th, 2010
1:21 am
Hi Jay,
I’m sure a lot of people feel the same way. I decided to dive into a completely different topic for a lot of reasons. One was to remove the ability to rely on my past success with 4HWW. It was rewarding, but I want to stretch myself elsewhere.
Best,
Tim
September 29th, 2010
10:59 pm
You did all the testing on your own body? Everyone’s body is different. In the future, even aspirin will vary from one person to another. How can you say that what works for one person will work for all? A little skeptical, but very interested in learning more.
September 30th, 2010
1:20 am
Not just on me. Lots of people, but I’ll talk about individualized differences throughout the book.
September 29th, 2010
10:59 pm
Great job Tim!
I’m supposed to get a signed copy from an order I placed last Dec. for 5 copies of your 1st book. Anything special I need to do to get a 15 minute orgasm, and my book bra? :-)

Nothing special required! You should have an email from Amy today :)

Just pre-ordered my signed copy, can’t wait to read it. Your first book inspired me to leave my risk free job in retail and pursue a career as a personal trainer where I can teach and have a positive impact on others.
September 29th, 2010
11:03 pm
Hey Tim,
You should you have a lot of international readers. What about us? I tried to get your last book T4HWW, ordered in all the major books shops, but didn’t get it. The 4 hour Body looks like a must have and I am extrememly interested in your body hack ideas. Can’t wait to read it.
Please make sure it’s available in India. I think outside US where Amazon like services are not so prominent, a prined version is the only way to read.
I believe like me all your international fans will be happy if they can read the book as soon as they can.
Please take care of it.
My best wishes for your new book,
Torumoy.
September 29th, 2010
11:10 pm
Hey Tim,
I’ve followed your stuff for a long time, pre-4HWW. I’ve implemented a lot of your hacks, and have been constantly amazed at what our bodies are capable of, with very little effort (I held my breath for almost 5 minutes — that’s bizarre!)
My issue, however, is confidence. Does this book do anything (other than making you feel like a better person) to touch on this? I’ve heard that most confidence is a facade anyhow, it just takes a bit of acting, but I’ve been plagued by this issue for as long as I can remember. It’s difficult to succeed when you have no confidence, though it seems to be something you have in copious amounts!
I already bought 3 books, but I was hoping you could tell me sooner whether you touch on this seemingly simple brain-hack.
September 30th, 2010
1:18 am
Hi Garrett,
I do address this. It’s in an indirect way, but yes. I think it will help.
Hope that helps!
Tim
September 29th, 2010
11:11 pm
Really looking forward to reading your new book!
The title, however, feels a bit contrived. Was the decision yours or the publisher’s (feels like a committee of MBAs agreed upon it)? The title is incongruous with your reputation as an honest broker who gives people the straight scoop without corporate BS on various topics of “life hacking.”
Always remember, “Tim Ferriss” is the franchise, not some cute “self-help” title. You can try to build up equity (as the MBAs would say) in this 4-Hour-thingy but at the end of the day, without you it’s nothing.
The 4-Hour schtick worked fine for the first book because it was new and original. Slapping the same type of title on the second book makes it look like you’ve sold out. Frankly, the “4 Hour Body” title feels a bit shlocky.
If your aim is simply to make a few bucks then keep the title. If your aim debunk erroneous conventional wisdom on fitness and health and help thousands of people “reach their genetic potential” (which btw should be in the sub-title), then lose the title.
????? ??????!!
PS: Time to therefore to start also building some Google juice with the domain http://www.timferriss.com
September 30th, 2010
1:17 am
I’ll be talking much more about the title decision, etc. after the book comes out. There are good reasons it was used. Not the perfect title, but better (for reasons I’ll explain) than a host of others.
Thanks for the candid comment,
Tim
September 29th, 2010
11:12 pm
Tim,
I think I had the same issue as Luke above. After I finished checkout it just says “hardcover”. Either way is cool for me.
P.S. – Sorry if you (or your assistants) received a return mail months ago. I was in the Facebook tagging deal and I never got the books. It was my college address and I might have made a mistake typing it or it somehow didn’t make its way to me. I bought it the next week anyway.
September 30th, 2010
1:14 am
Michael! You should be set, but let me know if you have any problems. I’ll fix. For the FB bit, that’s no good. I’ll have Amy reach out to you ASAP.
Thanks!

Hi Tim,
Problem with form:
I took a screenshot of my receipt and sent it in and realized that my netbook cut off the bottom half of the B&N receipt, blame the small screen size. Should i resubmit the form again w/ a better screenshot (zooming out on the browser) or is the order identification number going to be alright?

p.s I can’t wait to read it and share it with friends!!! esp because i am a 6 foot 2,150 lbs and look like a stick figure.

AWESOME. I didn’t bring my credit card with me today to work or else I would have bought 5 already… I hope the signed copies aren’t sold out already or I’ll be really bummed. Damn time zones :(
September 30th, 2010
12:02 am
Ok bought a copy, probably first one shipping to Malaysia, postage cost me almost the same amount as the book 0_0
But I fully support what you are doing and think that you are an inspiration to many!
September 30th, 2010
12:13 am
Tim, I just ordered 3 signed copies, NOT 5. I don’t like you that much.
Could you let us know when the 3000-mark has been reached?
September 30th, 2010
1:11 am
LOL… well, I’ll keep working on my charisma, then. Something to shoot for.
B&N should automatically indicate on that page (cut off sales) when they run out, so you should be good to go as long as that page lets you order.
Best,
Tim

“How to reverse permanent injuries”
Any tips on handling sciatica or herniated discs in the book? what type of injuries are talked about?
Good luck!!
September 30th, 2010
12:23 am
Hi Tim,
Congratulations!
I am a big fan and just pre-ordered 5 from the UK (express delivery, bit pricey but worth it). I really couldn’t wait until Feb 2011 for the UK version.
The only other thing I ever pre-ordered was an iPad. So you are on-par with Steve Jobs in that respect ;-)
Your timing couldn’t be better really. I just turned 40 the day you announced your new book!
Also being a new father (5 month old baby), I noticed that my new lifestyle which involves less sleep, working from home (thanks 4HWW), more hectic days and more ‘comfort food’ has had quite an impact on my weight. I recently had quite a reality check trying to squeeze myself into a suit, after months of working in shorts and t-shirts. It felt more like trying to get into a scuba suit ;-)
Your latest guest Blog post about gluten free diets really convinced me it is time to change a few eating habits. So now I am looking forward to your next body hacks, because in my head I am still 25 … I just need to convince my body of this ;-)
I hope you blow your own sales targets completely out of the water after all the hard work you put into this.
Cheers
Greg

So exciting! Four hour work week has been one of the most important books in my life – and also most life changing – not just once but the ideas live in my life everyday! My clients love that book also and I’m definitely sure this new one will be a blast too! Looking forward to get my signed copy!:)
September 30th, 2010
12:32 am
Just bought a signed copy Tim,
You’re the first person to encourage me to buy a book with $14.00 delivery charges all the way to the UK, but I just couldn’t wait till February when it was showing up on Amazon UK.
Looking forward to reading this one!
September 30th, 2010
12:34 am
You’re THE MAN.
Pre-ordered a week ago on amazon.fr
FYI:
12.98$ International Shipping on BN website made me crazy and bottom line amazon.fr price: 20.78€ –> 27.56$… so same price.
But I’m sure it worth it.
September 30th, 2010

Congrats Tim!
Pre ordered a copy, and really looking forward to reading it.

Done, ordered two copies. Of course no free shipping to Sweden, but we’re kinda used to that! :-) With some luck I’ll get them before X-mas.
Int’l phone numbers worked with the format 00XXXXXXXXXX, so no plusses, dashes or other chars.

12:41 am
Tim,
This is great, I’m looking forward to your new book. 4HWW has been a huge inspiration.
One question concerning the 4 Hour Body – Do you cover maintaining fitness while on the road?
September 30th, 2010
12:43 am
I’ve been waiting for this and is really excited!
Can’t wait to hold it on my hands. lol
September 30th, 2010

Pre-order to South Africa ! (the shipping is more expensive than the book hahah)
Looking forward to it !!
September 30th, 2010
12:54 am
I’m in.
Two for the price of one.
1. What looks like a compelling read
2. Plus a hands-on masterclass on internet marketing in action. :-)

12:56 am
Hey Tim!
I just ordered 5 copies to Germany (I hope it’s not too late, 12 midnight PST Thursday means until Thursday is over, right? Otherwise I would be really sad :( ), I am a huge fan for years now and it would mean a lot to me to have a chance to talk with you. Your last book really changed my life and my ideology, and I am glad I already bought it with 16 back in 2007.
I can’t thank you enough for this.
Viele Grüße,
Alex

Looking at the number of comments, looks like the 300 signed copies are already spoken for :-). Anyways, ordered 2 copies to Oz, looking forward to the read – esp the 2 chapters on weight loss :-)!

Hey Krishna,
Two things real quick:
1) There are 3,000 signed copies, not just 300!
2) There are two extensive chapters for those who don’t eat meat. You’ll be set.
Best,

[...] Ferris. My favorite blogger/author Tim Ferris just announced his new book today on his blog. The New Book Unveiled: The 4-Hour Body I'm pretty excited about this new one because many of his blog entries have been fantastic [...]

Hi Tim,
some months ago I was talking with a very special Lady who’s an astrologist and she said to me that there are a certain kind of people who’re born with a certain kind of “configuration” that makes them be essential in the evolution of societies.
And when I see you coming up with this kind of project, I think I can both recognize that what she says is really true and identify you as one of such “catalysts”. You did it with the 4HWW and probably will do it again now.
The World needs such initiatives.
If you keep up with the pace of 1 book (or similar) every 3 years, we will see a very different World soon. And as I wrote my previous sentence, something came to my mind:
“what if you find a way of monitoring your readers evolution (like working habits, income, health, frequency of vacations) ?”.
In other words: describe our lives (with some questionnaires, just an example) before getting our hands on your book(s) and then refresh that info within a year or 2 after reading it”. We could apply some serious data mining on the data and… just an idea.
I was going to order the book to my just-arrived kindle but then I remembered those don’t count for this purpose, so I just bought a few hardcovers that will serve as Christmas gifts ;).
Blessings.
September 30th, 2010

I only just started four hour work week, haven’t finished it, BUT I LOVE IT! So much so, I have ordered 3 copies of your new title….. Thanks a lot Tim!

Hmm..there is nothing mentioned about hair loss.I know a technique to reverse hair loss without any external application,drugs,treatment..etc
September 30th, 2010
1:28 am
The book looks insanely interesting! For a multitude of reasons, but especially the two hours of sleep and 15-minute female orgasms. Immediately (before there were any comments here) pre-ordered two signed copies, they’ll be shipping towards Belgium.
And as many others probably have already said: if only *one* of these lifehacks works, it’ll have been worth far more than the price of the book! :)
Congrats on the clever marketing/launch initiative by the way ;)
September 30th, 2010
1:35 am
Ordered. Thanks for inspiring me through book an blog several times.
Looking forward to some new body experiments so that I’ll also be able to say: “I could not be happier with the end product.” ;-)
September 30th, 2010
1:40 am
Ordered to Sweden here. With $12.98 added for shipping it’s still a bargain if it’s just half as useful as your first book.
September 30th, 2010
1:42 am
This is big! Thank you Tim for keeping up with the great work!
I just ordered my copy from B&N. Being in Italy I opted for the quickest shipping, which ended up costing $35.98 (more than twice the cost of book. argh!).
Interesting that on Amazon UK they do list the book, but it has a slightly different title:
“The 4-Hour Body: The Secrets and Science of Rapid Body Transformation”
It has a release date of Februrary 2011, it’s paperback, and it’s reported to have 320 pages, instead of the 592 pages reported by amazon US.
I wonder if Amazon UK data is correct.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/4-Hour-Body-Secrets-Science-Transformation/dp/0091939526/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1285832413&sr=8-1

Hey Marco,
Thanks for the comment. The UK info is incorrect. Their subtitle is an older version and the page count is low. It’s a big ‘un :)
Tim

Hey Tim! I just ordered 2 signed copies, shipping to Austria, I’m sure it will be well worth the ridiculous shipping costs! (if I don’t like the book, I still can sell it for a couple K’s on ebay, right? ;-) though I highly doubt that this will be the case…)
Keep up the great work!
September 30th, 2010
1:54 am
Ordered one ;) Too bad about the shipping though, costs the same as the book and will probably only arrive somewhere in january:-(
Either way, congratulations with the book, I’m sure it will be just as great as 4HWW! ;-)
September 30th, 2010
1:58 am
and one preordered to romania. hope it gets here by christmas :D
September 30th, 2010
2:04 am
Yes! Great news, been waiting for this one since you first anounced it!
I ordered 2 to Belgium, so I’ll make someone happy at Christmas (and his girlfriend/wife as well ;-)

Hi Tim,
Was just wondering if you could tell me if you mention paleo in this book?
September 30th, 2010
2:18 am
Ordered :). Can’t wait to read this.
September 30th, 2010
2:27 am
Ordered and massively psyched! This is great and thanks for turning yourself into and r&d project in order to provide as with awesome value.
Btw anything for dislocated shoulders under the permanent injury reversals? That would be a very nice extra to the obvious value from the book! :)
Thanks and Congratz!
September 30th, 2010
4:13 am
A TON on shoulders. I’ve had 20+ (yep, not a typo) dislocations. Mostly one shoulder. Ouch.
September 30th, 2010
2:27 am
We need more of this, more people trying out food/supplements/exercise/sleep routines in a controlled, scientific manner to get a wide consensus on true correlations. Ideally, we could record all of our behavior (all heart beats, vital signs, blood contents, sleep duration, food intake, time taken etc.) and we could really see some correlations jump out, the more data the better. The more stuff that gets measured, the more data and correlations that can be seen. We’re still in the infancy of discovering correlations to optimize our health. A general consensus so far seems to be of the evolutionary basis for a more paleo-style diet of natural-grown/raised meat, vegetables, fruits and nuts.
September 30th, 2010
2:29 am
Hi Tim,
First reaction to the post – it sounds too good to be true, so … I bought one copy and I am looking forward to test some of your tips on myself.
If the 15min Orgasm really works, I guess you will save many marriages ;-))
Question, is there any estimiated date when other language versions will be released?
btw briliant marketing here, as usual. Hope there will be “4 hour marketing” coming next.
all the best
September 30th, 2010

Wow – that’s looking uber-interesting…
Pre-ordering it NOW!
btw – anything on hair loss?

Whaaaa… really?!? I’ll check on that right away. Shouldn’t happen. To be continued…
Tim
September 30th, 2010
4:19 am
Daniel, were you charged, or was the total amount just “authorized” on your card? Just to be clear, as the two are not the same. B&N will want to ensure you CAN pay by authorizing, but they shouldn’t charge now, at least based on what I understand. Please let me know, and thanks.
Tim

September 30th, 2010
3:24 am
Tim, I love your work and recommend it to everyone. I am a huge fan and am very excited about the book. I went ahead and purchased a physical copy to help you out, knowing I will maybe use it as a reference. I understand you want to sell as many physical copies as possible, and that publishing is a bit backwards, I would however request that you inform us of a digital/audio pre-order as well. I don’t need another book to carry around. I have a laptop, an ereader and two cellphones. I will buy whatever digital format you want to sell it in, I do ask 2 things, 1st, if possible please add Audible to your release list on day one. I have over 200 books from them and it works well now on both android and iphone. 2nd Please include a set of pdf charts that I can access via the web, or audibles website. Again I already prepaid for a physical copy, and It may never get opened. I love reading and listening to audio books and they only way I can do it is on the go. Thanks in advance!
September 30th, 2010

Pre-ordered for Serbia!
Thanks Tim.
September 30th, 2010
3:40 am
I’ll definitely buy this book, but it’s not available ’till February on UK Amazon – and there’s no Kindle pre-order.
I’m not buying any more dead-tree books, so it would be cool if a Kindle version was available as soon as possible for the UK market.
September 30th, 2010
3:40 am
Please sell it in iBookstore, Im done with paperbacks.
September 30th, 2010
3:56 am
Hi Tim,
2 copies ordered!
I just finished university and am working on chapter “automation” of the 4HWW. Now I am quite often asked what my future plans are, what kind of job I am looking for. Thanks to you I have a hard time explaining ;-)!
Thanks for the inspiration and opening my eyes to the opportunities out there! I’ll let you know how it goes.
Die besten Grüße aus Stuttgart
Sandro
PS: I gave some copies of the 4HWW to friends, but unfortunately the German translation isn’t nearly as good as your original style. I’ll stay with the English version.
September 30th, 2010

Doesnt say signed edition on my receipt but i can assume it is? (i’m pretty sure i clicked the link)

If you clicked on the link, you should be good to go :)
Thanks!

5 copies awaiting to be signed, sealed, and delivered.
Thoughts:
1. It would be funny if the chapter on sex was called “the 4 hour orgasm”
2. I’m curious to see what the sleep thing is all about. I know Thomas Edison slept very little, only taking short naps as needed.

Are there chapters on Stamina or Concentration?
I think a lot of readers will be looking for that.
Can’t wait.
September 30th, 2010
5:07 am
There ist one aspect to fitness which I never found mentioned. I like to do TaeKwonDo (ITF) 2-3 times a week which keeps me quiet in shape, but I would like to increase my duration and strength additionally (not necessarily both at the same time). All the “minimal efford plans” include long resting periods. Would my TWD training for example mix up your suggested 4hww muscle build training, or could I just do it in between?
ps.: Do you read the comments of older blog posts?
Thanks for you effort und Grüße aus Deutschland :)
September 30th, 2010
5:51 pm
Hi Sam,
There will be an entirely different approach for athletes in the book. Perfect for TKD.
Tim
September 30th, 2010
5:10 am
Can we expect this in Kindle format worldwide?
The extended, new version of the 4HWW has been hard to come by on Kindle, at least in the UK, which is a bit of a shame, as I’ve stopped buying paper books..
September 30th, 2010
5:14 am
Ordered as here in the UK we’ve got a big delay until it’s released. But I’ll get it shipped over!
If you’re planning a next book would love to hear more about how you hack and break down things into experiments. Would be great to apply it to more areas in life. E.g. Cycling – breaking it down to the things that make a real difference to someone’s performance rather than the myriads of instructions you are given (Using 80/20 rule). You’re unique blend of “lifehacking” and “skill hacking” is not something I’ve seen elsewhere!
September 30th, 2010
5:18 am
Good stuff, I work out only an hour a week now, so it’ll be good to find a way to optimize that time. I’m having a stem-cell shake right now.
September 30th, 2010
5:25 am
Awesome. Does the book cover improving flexibility?
September 30th, 2010
5:29 am
As an avid lifter for many years and having experimented a good deal myself I can’t wait to read this Tim. Shipping charges to Norway be damned B&N have taken another order.
The injury stuff is fascinating – injured knees, shoulders and other body parts are looking forward to some new insights.
September 30th, 2010

Pre-Order Done!
Can’t wait for it to arrive. Your first book the 4 Hour Work Week changed my life :)

Does this book cover topics for gaining weight beyond a rehashing of your Geek to Freak post?
September 30th, 2010

Yep. Three chapters total. It goes into intricate detail. There was a lot missing from G2F.

Tim,
Loved your first book. I just ordered…..but card was charged immediately. If that is the case you may want to delete the sentence that says:

I’ve got my VA lifting weights for me, but I’m just not getting the results I was hoping for. ;)
Hope this book will help resolve that.

I am ordering the book (3 copies) right now! In the 4-hour work week, Tim suggested I try just one technique on rapidly gaining muscle. Having been working out since 14 at first I didn’t believe in the claim (both his and the book he suggested), but thought that I don’t have much to lose, with 30-day program. At worst I would have another book/technique scratched off my list of things to try. In short, I lost 10 lbs of fat and gained 10lbs of muscle in just 3 weeks of following the program, while gaining 20-30% strength and besting my own bench press all time record (went from 285 to 315lbs). At 28 I looked and felt better than ever and without a single injury. Ever since I turned all of my friends and relatives who would listen to it, thanks to Tim.
Cant wait for the book, especially the 15 minute female orgasm part ;)
September 30th, 2010
6:20 am
Dear Tim,
I’m very excited about this new book.
I designed a weight gain challenge of my own about 18 months ago. Mine was 15 pounds in 10 days. I made it, in the process I ate about 10 kg of hommus, and unfortunately I ended up with some kankles… this was only temporary :)
At the pinnacle I was lifting 55kg dumbells on each arm (flat press). Chest measured 105cm.
Best of luck with the new book!
Cheers,
Dave
September 30th, 2010
6:28 am
G’day Tim,
Same issue as Luke & Michael above (ordered “Hardcover – Signed Edition” but the actual order page only shows “Hardcover”), 5 copies too!
I also tweeted you regarding this but while I’m here… Did you accidentally delete your tweet about the new book? It doesn’t show up for me in on your Twitter page but I have seen RT’s about it and also the copy that got sent to Facebook. Thought you might like to know, as I wasn’t sure if it was intentional or not (or if its just something funny happening to my Twitter account…).
September 30th, 2010
6:37 am
I have found it on The Book Depository.
http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9780091939526/The-4-Hour-Body
Might help Europe based homies.
Tim will orders other than B&N not help you out?

6:40 am
Loved your first book, but didn’t buy it just borrowed from the library. So I bought two of the new one so I can lend or give the second one away.
You’re a inspiration!

Just ordered my copy of the book. Really excited for this, even got it off the signed edition page, so I’m hoping I made the cut. Would be really awesome, I’ve never had a book signed by the author.
Keep up the awesome, inspiring work Tim.
September 30th, 2010

Hey Tim!
I am so excited to read this book! Your 4 Hour Work Week had a big influence on me in my quest to run a successful online fitness business and I can’t wait to read what you’ve experimented with in the new book and how that will influence me too!

September 30th, 2010
7:20 am
I’m a ~poor college student~ and usually only buy used books, but I figured “well, I like Tim, I should help him out, blahblah”
Surprised to see it’s a good deal! Even if only one of the tips in the book even kind of works, it will be worth much more than what I paid.
September 30th, 2010

Very excited about the book, just bought 5 copies. However, my PC is kaput at the moment so I ordered from my iPad, can I fwd you my receipt? Or I can send upload a screen shot when I get to work in 8 or 9 hours time (I’m in Sydney). Also, is there anyway you can look at the email notifications when you post new blogs? I always get them a day or two after you’ve posted and feel like I’m always late to the party.
Sincerely from an unabashedly huge fan,
L

wow, you make a lot of fantastic claims in the back cover verbiage.
I’m a skeptic but I look forward to reading it and trying things out.
I’ll get the kindle version when it comes out in Dec.

Just pre-ordered a signed copy, can’t wait to check it out. It’s been several years since I dedicated some time to learning the latest research in performance enhancement, so I’m really looking forward to seeing what you discovered.
This is a pretty huge departure from your last book, big props on the cajones necessary to step out and going after a different type of market completely from the business one. Best of luck, I’m sure you’ll crush it.
If I ever see you in person will a signed book work to buy you a beer? ;)
September 30th, 2010
7:30 am
Book pre-ordered, and request submitted via Google Docs for a blog interview. Hoping we can set something up. Still in the startup phases of the blog due to a few other projects on the side that have required a little more time.
September 30th, 2010
7:31 am
Tim,
any idea when there will be an e-version?
September 30th, 2010
7:32 am
Ordered. Can’t wait…looks great.

this is going to be a fun ride!
September 30th, 2010
7:34 am
Woohoo! Just ordered a book, and I’m so excited to see if my pictures are going to be in there!
(I’d buy the book regardless though. This looks like it’s gonna be AWESOME!!!)
September 30th, 2010
7:35 am
Tim,
I ordered 4 copies of the expanded &c. 4HWW (to receive a free copy of this book) and i have changed my address since that time. How are these free copies going to work and what should I do regarding my address?
Thanks,
Nathan

Tim – Just preordered for Kindle. I enjoyed 4HWW & have been looking forward to this for a while.
Thanks to your program I’ve lost 75 pounds of fat since March, going from 303 to 228 (I’m 6′). I’m in better shape at age 32 than I was at 22 – rowing crew again for the first time in over 10 years. I feel great and don’t feel like I’m really denying myself – it’s a great lifestyle that I can stick with for the long term. Thanks so much and best of luck to you.

September 30th, 2010
7:43 am
Tim, there are two, gigantic, areas still waiting for your expertise:
1) Penis enlargement
2) Hair regrowth (on the head)
These two topics would make AWESOME additions either as chapters or blogposts for the 4 hour body.
Did you ever venture into hair regrowth? Hell, you’re importing Stem-cells from Isreal, something must have landed on your desk about regrowing hair. ;)
January 10th, 2011
11:10 am
Hey, just read the book, and came back here to post exactly what Mac has. Any plans for these additions Tim?
September 30th, 2010
7:45 am
I was excited about the new book until I read some of the contents. Now I feel left out: being female, my goal is not to have higher levels of testosterone or increase my weight lifting abilities. I loved the 4 Hour Work Week, I love your newsletter. Now about your new book……..hmm……..
Tim, tell me why I, a woman in her fifties, should buy your book!
September 30th, 2010
5:33 pm
Hi Sabine,
Here’s the reason: half of the case studies are women, and my mom also used a ton of the book :)

Ordered to Kuala Lumpur. Being active and fit, yet asthmatic I’m hoping if anything written for strengthening the lung. I run, swim and hike but can’t seem to feel as strong as I would like to. Wonder how those Olympians with asthmatic train yet performing extremely well.
Selamat berjaya with the new book Tim!
September 30th, 2010
7:52 am
Great stuff Tim! Since I spend tons of time reading and applying research in my own lab (garage gym and research lab) I am excited to read the new book.
Yes, those crazy cannon balls with handles are great and beta alanine research is looking pretty good so far (most, but not all studies on it).
Anything I can do to help, let me know. I will have a blog post to direct to this one up soon. Already pre-ordered my copy. Thanks for all the hard work on this one!
Rock on

September 30th, 2010
7:52 am
Tim – I suspect you don’t have much control over this, but can you prevail on your publisher to release it two weeks earlier, for the benefit of your Jewish fans/potential giftees? Chanukah runs Dec. 1-9 this year, and this would be a great gift item for some of my friends & relatives, except it won’t be available until after our holiday’s over.
September 30th, 2010
7:53 am
I’ve ordered my copy. How can I not? 4HWW has changed my life…I’m sure this will too.
September 30th, 2010
7:53 am
Tim,
Looks great! Just bought 2 copies, one for myself, one as a gift for my brother, just returned from being overseas with the Marines.
Just a note on the not being charged: Right before you’re set to place your order on BN, there is a small note near the bottom of the page that states, “You will not be charged until your order ships.”
Tim, I’d love to promote your book on my blog, and I submitted my information as per your request.
Best,
Ryan

592 pages. WOW. I’m reading every single one. Just ordered two copies.
I hope there’s something about improving vertical jump.
Get smashed on Tequila Tim. You deserve it.

Hi,
I saw that it will be available on Kindle on Amazon, but is this true? I live in New Zealand and will probably have access to the book until February! But I’m dying to read it! I want my signed copy too! I love Tim.
September 30th, 2010
7:59 am
Tim!
Just ordered 5 copies and signed up to help you promote it on my blog in the future — really excited about helping you make this book a success.
But I’m conflicted!
If this sells millions of copies then I’ll look like less of a sex God when other men can give women 15 minute orgasms :(
I’m only half-joking.

Stoked! Can’t wait to read it!
September 30th, 2010

I personally don’t love the title but loved the last book and your blog, so I am in.
Good luck Tim!

Ki ora Tim,
Are you serious about the 15 minute orgasm? 2 hours of sleep? I LOVE THE IDEA! :)
I want to get a Kindle copy, does anyone know if it will be available by December too? I also want to get the book but I think it will be available until Feb in NZ.
Besos!
September 30th, 2010
8:12 am
Awesome. Congratulations on finishing Book #2, Tim! I can’t wait to read this.
Additionally, I am grateful for all that you provide for us on your blog. You somehow manage to provide insanely valuable content for free while marketing and self-promoting with every paragraph and tweet. That’s a compliment. I think the most valuable “content” you offer is your marketing ingenuity.
Keep it up brotha!
September 30th, 2010
8:13 am
Hey Tim,
I’ve been waiting for this book ever since you first mentioned it. I just ordered 5 copies and can’t wait to implement your findings into my life. I’m 43, I have ridiculously high LDL cholesterol, low HDL and very elevated triglycerides.
Is cholesterol addressed in the book? Also, do you have any ideas for your NEXT book?
Thanks,
Billy

Tim,
Also, after reading some of your 4-Hour Body posts, and The Colorado Experiment, I have become a big fan and advocate of High Intensity Training principles. Wondering if there’s much in your book about HIT, Arthur Jones, etc.
September 30th, 2010
8:14 am
@TIM – Need Clarification:
Hi!!! Wanted to know about having a 1-2 hr telecon with you on Lifestyle Design:
1) Will everyone ordering 5 books or more get the opportunity??? Or few select people?
2) Will this opportunity be applicable for international readers as well? (Im from India).
Pleaseeee clarify ASAP as we gotta order before 12am!!!!
Thanks

I’d kill for your body Tim, so if there’s tips in there for how to get it – then great!
September 30th, 2010
8:17 am
Tim,
Congrats on the book release. One question. When I spoke with you at SXSW, we talked a bit about sleep, and how I’d love to sleep less but can’t function well. It was after your Art of Speed talk, and Mike Cassidy mentioned he slept only 4 hours (I think) per night. Your experience was the same as mine, and you said that unfortunately you needed a lot of sleep as well.
Did you discover something new since then or is the 2 hour sleep thing more of a short-term approach that doesn’t work for longer stretches?
I was planning to tackle your book and Art de Vany’s upcoming book on the evolutionary diet as part of my goal to understand personal health better. What’s your take on de Vany’s approach?
Roman
September 30th, 2010
5:32 pm
Hi Roman,
Art is very, very smart. I’m eager to read it as well. He and I have similar approaches in many respects. I just don’t emphasize power laws as much. As for sleep, I have learned a lot since that panel. My preference is still long stretches of sleep per night, but I’ve learned to do some cool stuff that can be extended long-term.

Tim ,
I have purchased about 15 copies of the 4Hww ( first addition ) and have sold another 20 through word of mouth. I also purchased the expanded addition. Worth every penny.
I can not wait for your new book.
I just ordered 2 copies.
Best of luck .

Hey Tim
Really looking forward to the book! If it helps to improve my life by 1/10th as much as 4HWW did, I will be elated!
Any quick thoughts on how to reverse or alleviate calf pain while I’m running?
Best of luck with the presaie push

Just ordered 2 books. I am so excited to read your new book man. I read the 4 hour work week 5 times and took notes on it. haha. I even created a product that related to my field of work and it has been doing pretty well so far. Thank you so much for all you do. I am inspired by how much you accomplish and I enjoy following you Tim. I just hope I bought the book in time to get one of the 3000 signed copies, even if I didn’t it will still be great. Thanks so much!

Besides the fact that you are a genius, you had me at
“How to produce 15-minute female orgasms.”
Is that possible for my husband as well?
Thanks Tim – your research and writing create hope. I’ll pay a whopping big $15 for hope any day.

Tim, congrats on the new book. I love the title and the subject, it was pretty clear from all your recent blog posts where your book was heading. My 4HWW is still something I’m working on, so when I have that under my belt, the 4HB will be next!
September 30th, 2010

Hey Tim, congrats!
Just ordered my copy… hopefully you can turn this pile o’ goo into something a little more respectable (at least to my wife).
Hey, btw, I do run a podcast (CampgroundPirateRadio). It’s not big… yet, but slowly growing. If you’ve got a 2-3 minute audio piece you’d like me to run on an upcoming show, send it to me at campgroundradio-at-gmail.com (mp3, wav, aiff). I’ll be happy to place it in the show.

I just ordered my copy! I was glad to still catch the “Hard Cover – Signed Edition” this morning, so I’m looking forward to a good read. I gave away two copies of 4HWW, but I’m keeping the 4HB signed edition all to myself, until I find my next worthy cause!
Over the course of last year and a half I went from 155 to 170, but I can’t see where it went (other than a small-doesnt-look-like-15lbs-went-there-bulge in my gut). I’m guessing it was the transition out of my 20′s and into the 30′s! Maybe this will change my workouts, limit my gym visits, get back my 6pack, and more importantly, I can spend more time with the kiddo’s (both under 4) and wife. BTW, do you cover material that is kid friendly?
September 30th, 2010

Tim
the 4 hour work week completely rocked my world, changed my paradigm about life in totality, and gave me the knowledge i needed to apply on the spot.
I’m an avid reader, and this book CHANGED MY LIFE! Thank you
I enjoy your ability to spell out and explain not in theory, but specifics. you are thorough my friend, and I know you can deliver.
you betcha I will be grabbing a hot copy of this book. I appreciate what you do,
I wish you great success, I know it will do well!
September 30th, 2010
9:16 am
Hi Tim,
You did EXACTLY what I have been wanting to do myself! I’m greatly looking forward to reading the book.
I bought seven. I bought two immediately after reading the part of the post saying to buy one, and if you buy two, you get free shipping.
Then I read further, and read about the deal for five. So I went back and bought five more.
Now I have no idea if the Q & A will truly be helpful, but since I can probably sell the books for more than I pay, and ESPECIALLY since I’ve bought many copies of your first book and given them away, I’m beginning to think seven is not enough.
If you would ever like to make a body optimization case study out of a 43 year old entrepreneur mother of five who lost 20 pounds in about six weeks following stuff on your blog and a couple of other tweaks of my own, let me know. I have the resources to pay for necessities and track progress. I guess I would only need consultation to speed up what I will learn out of your book.
I will be looking to see if there are any radical transformations of 40+ year old women with multiple children :-).
My case study would be a great way to expand your market a bit — you could syndicate it to the mommy blog world :-).
I hope you reach all your goals for the book.
Blessings!

Hi Tim, I am so excited about your new book. I loved your 4HWW. I read it over 4 or 5 times and took notes in it. It helped me to create an online product for the profession that I am in. I have a passion for learning about the human body. I ordered 2 of your books. I just hope I ordered them quick enough to get a signed copy, even if I didn’t it will still be great. Thanks so much for all you do. I am inspired by how much you accomplish and enjoy following you. Thanks!

Tim
I witnessed your smarts, diligence and kindness towards others at several Quantified Self meetups in the S.F. area and have benefitted from tips in your blog so – for the first time ever – I am following up on a blog-related book offer.
I just ordered two copies of your book and look forward to posting a review of them on B & N and on Amazon and via my LinkedIn book list
It does sound like you have really worked on getting this book right. Thank you
September 30th, 2010
9:27 am
Well, I’m in!
To tell you the truth, I don’t really believe what you promise in the cover. I’m not even really so interested. I guess there are many ‘if’s and conditions in order for them be real. And even if there is some magic pill that can turn me into a superman in no time, there are probably strings attached than only a long term study would reveal. So I would think twice before swallow it myself.
But, I really like the way you approach life and life experiments. I have extracted many interesting ideas (and they have triggered others :) from your first book (which I didn’t really buy) and your blog. Almost every post contains a relevant/interesting concept and initiate some personal research or discover an area to explore. (Hard to find elsewhere)
And I’m sure this book will not be different. Even if the promises sound outrageous and I will not take the magic pill myself, I’m sure that there is a lot of interesting stuff inside that deserves to be read and which I will partially extrapolate for personal use.
So even with the int’l shipping rates, I owe you this one ;)
Good luck!

I can not WAIT to help them with the info in your new book – especially my weight loss clients! Thank you Tim, I know that I am personally responsible for over 50 sales of 4HWW in Columbus Ohio this past year and I am SO looking forward to pimping your new book to my clients who could use it too.
I am sure your launch will far exceed your expectations – you deserve it!

Tim,
Don’t see the ebook version for all of us ipad people. Is because it is in pre-order.

September 30th, 2010
9:32 am
- did you test “going raw” for any time?
also different ppl’s bodies are different – so maybe we could have specific place in a forum where people can report how it works for them, inc. posting when they started, and then follow up results.
what’s yr next book? multiple orgasms for 4 hours? “the 4 hour orgasm” ?
September 30th, 2010

I used a borrowed laptop to buy the seven copies and cannot make the print screen function work. (I should have been on my own Mac!)

Hey Tim. I went ahead and pre-ordered a couple copies. The book sounds great. Keep it up.

Yippee Tim, just pre-ordered Audio and Hardcopy. Is the audio version going to have the same narrator as 4HWW? He is a terrific speaker and easy to listen to. Thanks again for all you do, you are truly an inspiration and a mentor to many of us.

September 30th, 2010
9:47 am
Hey Tim,
I urge you to please make your suggestions a bit more scientific, by creating a forum for people testing this. It would be very easy for you to ‘crowdsource’ the experiments, by having people post daily/weekly what they experimented with. On aggregate test what works (minus the occasional prankster). That way you can minimize (but not eliminate) before and after frauds. It’s a quick website to set up (iphone app even), and if it works, you will have invaluable medical research. Remember whom you heard this from. I want my 5%! :)
September 30th, 2010
5:22 pm
Hey LPG,
I’m on it :) Did this with about 200 people and will be doing much more as soon as it comes out. Agreed that the crowdsourcing has some real interesting potential.
Best,

What about dry orgasms for males in the book? Only girls get the fun?
September 30th, 2010

More on that, too. My thoughts are included in the book, but I’m happy to answer that during a live Q&A :)
September 30th, 2010

Pre-ordered my 2, will definitely make a great gift. I’m totally stoked for the new book. There’s a lot of great stuff in your first book that I’m still trying to add and tweak for myself.

Tim, I pre-ordered a copy for myself to be sent to my Kindle – Since I’ll be in Thailand training MMA during that time.
And I blasted it on my facebook, blog, and mailing list for you. Good luck with the launch, sorry my kindle purchase won’t count!

Huge fan, first time blog-poster.
I went ahead and pre-ordered a copy, normally I would wait for a digital version but you convinced me otherwise =)
4HWW was worth every penny and so much more, I’m confident 4HB will be as well. Best of luck!
September 30th, 2010
10:20 am
I like the fact that I’m the first person who saw the cover of your new book. Before you even published this post you uploaded the cover to Flickr. I saw it in the sidebar here on the blog, than went to Flickr and there was just 1 view.
September 30th, 2010
10:21 am
Congrats Tim. Been reading your blog for awhile now; good stuff. Pre-ordered 3x. looking forward to reading your book. Think I’ll share this with my trainers at the gym and see about incorporating it to my workout.
September 30th, 2010
10:23 am
Tim,
I’ll buy at least 5 copies today. I’m from Canada, so does amazon.ca work for the LD Q&A? When buying from B&N, I have to worry about currency conversion- and the canadian dollar can drop until December- as well as pay for shipping. What do you suggest?
You had me sold when you talked about reversing permanent injuries, and stem cell ;). Teres minor and infraspinatus have been kicking my ass for 3 years now.
Best of luck with this release!

Pre-ordered two copies to Vancouver! Very much enjoyed your Earn1K contributions and looking forward to hearing more behind-the-scenes info on this book.
Sounds like another Random episode in the coming weeks :)

Tim,
I posted earlier this morning and just realized I probably spammed you unintentionally. Sorry about that. Explains why the earlier post isn’t here.
In any case, just pre-ordered the book and looking forward to reading it.
As I said in the earlier post, I do have a podcast and if you’re interested, drop me a 2-3 minute audio plugging it and I’d be happy to run it on my next show. Contact me offline for an email address and URL to the show if you’re interested.
Thanks again!

Tim,
I already preordered 2 books. My question is, what must I do to get it sooner?
Name your price.

Will this book be translated to other languages if it is a success?
And adding antoher chapter:
Chapter 51: Wie man ein 500 seitiges Buch in 5 Tages übersetzt ;).

Ready for the purchase but will it be on iBooks, since it is my preferred reading app for the iPad?

Hi Arnbor,
Alas, Random House still doesn’t have an agreement with iBooks, so I can’t promise anything there. Hopefully yes, but definitely Kindle.
Best,

Awesome! I can just imagine it. The e-book will definitely be coming soon, but I’m not sure on the timing. More soon :)

I’m so excited, Got 2 copies and sprayed it all over the net. I’m opting for a best seller prior to publishing (if happens, is it going to be a first???)
I can’t wait!!!

Congratulations on the new book Tim, I very much look forward to reading it… too bad I have to wait for December!
Just completed the order on BN.com, thanks for all you do.

Tim, can’t wait to read and recommend it. The 4 Hour Work Week changed my life and i still look to it as a manuscript for life management. It inspired me to start a Non Profit Organization that has ONE mission to care for it’s members’ needs, which will include salary, housing, transportation, health care, food, and new compassionate friends. We can do all of this online, global, and with a simple t-shirt. And, we will raise funds internally by using this simple company t-shirt that’s on the website. Also, i have you on the company YouTube Video in a sage-like pose….you’ll love it. Namaste, and i will meet you one day. Peter, Kim, and Sage Moon (New Orleans,LA)

Peter, thank you so much for the comment. This is exactly the type of feedback (and from all of you!) that made me want to write another book. The first one almost killed me — writing is hard for me — but I took the dive because of these types of comments. Thank you.
Pura vida,
Tim

Hey Tim,
Looks awesome!
I’m from the UK, so just a couple of questions.
When this becomes available in the UK, will it be the same version as whats available here?
It’s just a comment above refers to there being a different title and lower page count. Will there be a load of content missing?!
Secondly, again that comment said about it being released in the UK in February 2011… that’s a fair way off… if I order now, when can I expect to receive it? December?
Thanks a lot Tim and I hope this is even more of a success than the last book.

Hi Matt,
No content should be missing. They just haven’t updated the page count :)

Tim; Just to let you know I was glad to order the 5 books but the page for the call in is not working. I am in the middle east and perhaps there is some internet foul up but it might be your sign in page.
I also left a heartfelt and enthusiastic review.
I hope I get one of the autographed copies but the call in seemed cool.
Best of luck

You are being watched! (I needed to grab your attention of course.)
At least 1500 people will gauge my progress!: I was just interviewed for a blog that will monitor my progress each week on my 31 day quest to lose 20 lbs. I have taken each tidbit from the book on the subject and I want to make sure that my daily regimen is congruent with what you recommended so I can fairly test your regimen in the book and so my feedback does not unfairly hold you up against an inaccurate light.
How do I get my 1 page daily regimen schedule to you for a 30 second at most review?
Let’s make tons of new believers together Tim. Have an amazing day!

I just pre-ordered from Amazon.com
I hope there are good tips on how to maximize exercising in a small, indoor space. I have some weights, a sit-up bench, and a treadmill in my garage and I love working out there while watching sports on TV. However, those three pieces of equipment don’t give me a ton of results for the time invested.
Looking forward to the book.

Congrats Tim!! Just heard about the book 2 mins ago and and already have my order in… I received 4HWW from a close friend for Xmas last year and it has had a huge impact on my life. Can’t wait to read this one!!

Hi Tim,
I have two receipts for a total of 5 copies. On your Wufoo page, I can only submit one screen shot at a time so I submit my info twice, one for each receipt. Do you think that’s going to be a problem?

Tim,
Ordered my five copies as well. I’ve probably given out a few dozen copies of 4HWW over the years to friends, family and even employees. Hope the new book helps even more people live their lives to the fullest and brings you even more success!

Pre-ordered, really looking forward to reading this. Also looking forward to getting rid of that god%$#@ last tiny bit of fat that has been covering my abs for the last 10 years.
I’ll consider doing some before-and-after pictures using your techniques, but I don’t think I want to be on TV. My looks might draw people in, but my voice might make them change the channel.
You should come to Alaska one of these days. I’ll buy you a beer. Maybe two.
Did I just become one of your 1000 True Fans?

Great info, presented in a new light, this is why we all benefit from your writing! I am very excited to read your new book. Might have to submit some before and after photos too!

Congrats Tim! Pre-ordered…
Your first book changed my life, I am changing lives of other people by recommending your book worldwide….even in Bulgaria…The book was published in Bulgarian but not a great translation and not a great marketing either (unfortunately)….Word of mouth is doing better..
Good luck in your adventures!

Hey Tim!
I LOVES “The Four-Hour Work Week” and have been looking forward to this book for quite some time. I am totally stoked! I am still a poor college student but if I can work it into the budget I will totally buy one. Thanks for all of your help.

Ordered, but when will be an Spanish version? BTW the shipping costs overseas are almost equal as the book price :(
Tim, have you thought about the possibility to offer signed versions of the book in different languages (Spanish, Japanese, etc…) I’m a Spanish blogger, and I will be glad to feature this book in my blog…
Looking forward to unveil the secrets inside…

Yes, this is a group (but private) conversation via phone.

Hi Tim,
Yes it was a debit from my account – €20.44 to be exact with shipping (I’m in the Slovak Republic) It’s fine though, just wanted to make sure that other customers didn’t have the same expectation. p.s. congratulations on getting another book out.

Impressive. 408 potential buyers in 24 h. I will not buy it. I did learn enough with the 4HWW (excellent achievement by the way: parsimonious and insightful, and has an excellent data base). On the other hand, 15 min. orgasms!! Who wants that?
Something is lacking in the transfer of your lifestyle design. Not everybody has you IQ, emotional intelligence, attitude and enthusiasm. You tell great stories but this does not empower people.
On the other other hand, Tim, why are you added Google Ads to your page? It is not your style.

Hi Tim!
I used to train at AKA, got fixed by Dr. Janzen due to your article which saved my life and body, and saw you at BiztechDay twice. I just ordered 5 copies, and I can’t wait to read it.
I really appreciate the great advice on writing you gave me last time. It’s helped tremendously. I had wanted to ask you about my nerve problem, but was too embarrassed or ashamed to talk about it.
But, I realized that if anyone would know the answer, or know the people who could help, it would be you. I had axillery nerve damage in my deltoids 4 years ago, which lead to complete lost of my shoulder muscle and other dysfunctions in the body. I almost became a cripple due to this complications involved with nerve damage.
I saw over 50 doctors at this point, but no one has really been able to help. I tried to get my hands on HGH or stem cell, but they said there was no way for me to get access. If you know anything at all that could help with regrowing nerves/muscle, I would not be able to thank you enough!

Thank you for your comment and kind words. I am not a doctor, so I have to make that clear, but I will send you an email separately.

Hi Tim
Just ordered 5 signed copies – even though the shipping to Europe is expensive and takes forever.
Will keep one book for myself, and give the other four books away. That should spread some Christmas joy …
Hope you will do an audiobook version also. 4HWW has been on my Nokia N900 for ages, and I have listened to it several times already.
