About this ebook
THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
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% body fat with the aid of chocolate and Mayan secrets
Add 27% more muscle mass, courtesy of tips from world heavyweight champions
Increase speed by 10%, 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%, 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, readers will understand 'fitness' better than the vast majority of the population. Every chapter will have an easy to digest workout within it and can be read individually. But if you want to read 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.

This book is amazing and i thouroughly enjoyed it. Pretty much perfect HOWEVER, I will not be giving it any higher than a 3 because of the very frustrating incompatibility with my phone. The routine near the end cuts itself up when showing the exercises so important information is left out such as certain exercises and advice. Dissapointing if im honest. But Ross seems like a great guy as well as a powerful intellectual to learn a lot from, so dont dismiss the book becuse of this issue.

These 3 stars don't reflect the quality of Ross's work (which I believe was unbelievable) but the quality of the e-book in itself. Many training programmes are not rendered how they should be making it impossible to read most of the content.

A great book, full of useful info and ready good stories however Google Play formatting of the boom meant I couldn't really grasp the workout plans.
