Our view

“The 4-Hour Body” is a sprawling manual of self-experiments in fat loss, strength and well-being, meant to be dipped into, not read straight through. It packs in a great deal of information, and readers can pick only the chapters that match their goal. Some advise scepticism towards its claims, which the author himself invites, and some find his self-assurance, especially on the subject of women, hard to take.
