Shopping List for the 4-Hour Body Program
by Tim Ferris, you've probably noticed that he doesn't actually have a single consolidated list of the items he uses and recommends in the book. Here is that list!
I'm partial to shopping at Amazon for pretty much everything, so links are to the products or closest equivalents that Tim recommends in Four Hour Body on Amazon. Prices are accurate as of January 3rd, 2011.- Measurements:
- MyoTape Body Tape Measure
($6.45, equivalent to OrbiTape one handed tape measure.)
- Escali Bio Impendence Scale
($44.95, exact scale recommended by Tim.)
- Slim Guide Skinfold Caliper
($15.65, exact caliper recommended by Tim. Not required to buy both caliper and scale.)
- Supplements
- Supercissus Rx Capsules
($26.99, cissus quadrangularis, for use on binge days and periodic supplementation, but not indefinite daily use.)
- Policosanol 23mg, 60 tablets
($24.99, free shipping, part of PAGG)
- Vitamin Shoppe - Alpha-Lipoic Acid, 300 mg
($17.99, 99 cent shipping, part of PAGG)
- Mega Green Tea Extract
($19.24, free shipping, part of PAGG)
- Kyolic Garlic, Formula 100
($13.50, 99 cent shipping, part of PAGG. Aged garlic.)
- Exercise Equipment
- Thera-band Latex Exercise Bands
($~4.22, free shipping. These are the elastic bands that Tim uses for chest-pulls, the GLUT-4 releasing exercise. Strength varies by color. Small enough to carry in pants pocket.)
- First Place Kettlebells ($60-150. There are many, many kettlebell manufacturers and sellers. This is one 5-star rated kettlebell that is available in a variety of weights. Tim recommends a 20kb/44lb or 24kg/53lb kettlebell for men to start, and a 16kg/35lb or 20kb/44lb kettlebell for women to start. Here's a second link if you need a wide range of weights: First Place Vinyl Kettlebells
.
A reminder: none of this stuff makes sense unless you are buying and following the 4-Hour Body. It's a great book, well researched and entertaining.
