Summary

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.

Outstanding

I first purchased this as a hard copy but have now got the audiobook as i want to absorb as much of this information as possible. So walking the dog and driving the car this comes into play every now and again. So much work has gone into this book by Ross and the personal touch of him reading it out goes a long way. A must buy for anyone into health and fitness. Please note i really do think that Ross is super human and some kind of genetic freak although he has clearly put years of work into his passion his body and mind are like no other human im sure! A very inspirational human and my favourite all time book 👍

Good but something is missing

Great stories but somehow I was expecting more. Maybe that was a problem. If the part: "you can find this at my site..." was removed from audio book, it would probably be 15-20m shorter. Also, constant conversion between imperial and metrics was to much some times.
I liked the stories, they were great but expected more on kind of training sessions. This book was somewhere in between.

The worlds ‘fittest’ book!

Been a fan of Roos Edgley for some time on insta etc! Just got around to listening to the book via Audible! Wow! A true journey of knowledge, experience, comedy, but out of it all I come away feeling like I myself now have the tools to enrich my life in terms of training, food, self belief and a purpose of accomplishing true happiness! Thank you Ross for sharing your life’s work!
