About this listen

The Sunday Times best seller.

How to train for anything and everything, anywhere and everywhere.

The World's Fittest Book is set to become every fitness enthusiast's bible. Dubbed the body's complete user guide, it will become the go-to resource for learning all you need to know about building muscle, losing fat, eating (healthy) cake and unlocking your superhuman physical potential.

Packed with workouts the author tried and tested in the pursuit of multiple world records, it's more than a book, it's the greatest training tool ever written! Designed for anyone who wants to make permanent and lasting changes to their food and fitness, it's the first book to combine the teachings, tips and tricks of Olympic and world champions into one easy to follow resource.

This book will show you how it's possible to:

  • Live below 10 percent body fat with the aid of chocolate and Mayan secrets
  • Add 27 percent more muscle mass, courtesy of tips from world heavyweight champions
  • Increase speed by 10 percent, thanks to gold medal winning Olympic sprinters
  • Squat, deadlift and bench weights you never dreamed of lifting, with the guidance of the world's strongest men
  • Improve endurance capacity by 60 percent, thanks to the knowledge of world champions in multi endurance-based sports

...all of which the author has achieved during the 10-year 'fitness pilgrimage' that has taken him around the globe.

Aiming to be the most eclectic and comprehensive fitness guide ever created, The World's Fittest Book is the sum and substance of over a decade of research and the collective wisdom of some of the greatest minds and athletic bodies in history. By learning the lessons within it, listeners will understand 'fitness' better than the vast majority of the population. Every chapter has an easy to digest workout within it and can be listened to individually. But if you want to listen to the stories and the science behind the routines, that's there, too.

Until now, there hasn't been a book covering such an ambitious range of areas, catering for the casual fitness enthusiast seeking clarity and guidance in their own gym routine and kitchen habits as well as the seasoned sportsperson who's hit a plateau and is searching for tips, tricks and tweaks they can make to their training and diet. This book changes that and will take you on a journey to whatever level of fitness you want to find.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio on our desktop site.

WORLDS FUNNIEST BOOK ALSO

I’ve bought the book read it and passed it on to others as I got so much from it NOW I want it back after listening to the audiobook! Ross is a funny guy and an an amazing athlete he has a way of doing things that seem crazy but there is a method to his craziness and it’s explained in depth. You will learn the basics of fitness and nutrition and the workouts prescribed are certainly a go too! His story’s about his crazy fitness challenges are brilliantly funny and at times you ask WtF was he thinking but he get them done. An amazing dude and I love his energy. Ross inspires to be different and that’s the difference

More podcasts please Ross

Great book from and amazing individual!

Great book that contains so much information.
Stories that tell the amazing feats that Ross Edgley has achieved and so much information on the science behind all aspects of improving fitness.
Can't wait to get started on his next book.

One word of warning: this is not a book to listen to if you cannot fully concentrate on it as there is so much information contained. I listen to books whilst I run and many times I had to stop and replay the last five minutes.

GREAT BOOK, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
