My guest today is Tim Ferriss, an author, blogger and motivational speaker known for his bestselling books The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Body and The 4-Hour Chef. Ferriss is otherwise known as the guy who has revolutionized the idea of writing a book; he has engineered the process of a bestseller.

The topic is his TV show The Tim Ferriss Experiment.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

  • Why the wrestler Dan Gable is part of Ferriss’ drive
  • The “grinding” aspect of wrestling, and how that has played into Ferriss’ career
  • The early lessons learned about making a TV show
  • The 80/20 rule
  • Comparisons to the Turtle experiment
  • The idea of getting older, recovery, and athletics
