I wouldn't really look at his exercise thoughts much, considering he did so much incorrectly for so many years. He's out to make money- that's all he's out to do. And clearly, it's worked. I wouldn't invest if I were you though.

4 Hour Body mostly made me think this is a book that Patrick Bateman would write if he was into self-help books.

Isn't the diet pretty much Paleo? Just without fruits. I did lose a bunch of water weight from trying this for a week, then I decided to just be more active while eating less and ended up losing more weight.

It's closer to CKD than paleo.
