Last week a friend gave me a copy of The Four Hour Body by Tim Ferriss. Skimmed it this weekend. Some pretty surprising material. Great book. Has some excellent sections on the prehab, health first principles I have been yammering on and on about for a couple years now.
Rob have you read it? Care to comment on the overlaps and divergences between BP,your recomp work, etc. and his?
Anyone else read it? Comparisons and how some of the material dovetails with BP? etc? Thanks.

re "self-experimenter"
Yep, more like a minimalist body hacker.
The more I read, the more I think he somehow presents too many options. Also, I wish instead of just pure innovative stuff, he would do more synergizing of his discoveries with established development and treatment protocols.
...at the same time, though, I really appreciate that he goes around the country to the originators / champions actually giving all these various protocols due diligence and properly documented trials.
Rob, maybe you could invite him to come visit with you and pick your brains...

I'm well aware of this, which is why I've already moved on/found a better way. A select few, know what I'm talking about - but they've been sworn to secrecy/trusted with the keys to the kingdom. You didn't think I was standing still, did you?nigh70wl wrote:if TF picked up on the Famine/Feast idea you KNOW he'd write a book about it. the Rob Regish Blueprint Method would go platinum overnight

4HB, pg 28 ... about cycling
Ed Coan, described as the Michael Jordan of powerlifting, set more than 70 world records in his sport. Among other things, he deadlifted an unbelievable 901 pounds at 220 pounds bodyweight, beating even the super-heavyweights. His trainer at the time, Marty Gallagher, has stated matter-of-factly that “maintaining peak condition year around is a ticket to the mental ward.”
