I wanted to post about this book before diving into the specifics of my training and nutrition since most of it comes from its pages.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Tim Ferriss, he is the author of The 4-Hour Workweek and is known for his Minimal Effective Dose approach to getting things done. Like in The 4-Hour Workweek, Ferriss sets out to break the status quo with scientific and anecdotal evidence. Some of what Ferriss recommends is a bit extreme but lots of the content in both books can be applied to almost any lifestyle with minimal effort.
In the first pages of 4HB Ferriss recommends the reader to use the book like a buffet and it is a smorgasbord. The sections that I am currently using are his chapters on a Slow-Carb Diet and Ultra-marathon training. I am not going to go into specifics from the book but I will explain my personal protocol in later posts. The purpose here being simply to give credit where credit is due. And both my wife and myself owe Timothy Ferriss a debt of gratitude for the information shared in both The 4-Hour Body and The 4-Hour Workweek. If you are interested in either book I would highly recommend them especially for the price.
