We are into our second week of our 4 Hour Body/Beach Body challenge and this week was a really busy week at work. I was supposed to do my “A” workout routine on Tuesday night but getting home at 9 pm made this task almost impossible. What about Wednesday? Exactly the same thing. On my car ride home Wednesday evening something occurred to me: Hey I am the 4 Hour Body guy in this competition using the tools of Tim Ferriss what would he do?
That is when it occurred to me: I needed a virtual assistant to get these workouts done for me!
Now I know what you may be thinking, hiring “Bunny” from India to do my workouts for me could not possibly be effective. But I was thinking, since India’s night is our day I could have Bunny do my workouts for me while I am sleeping. And since sleep is (as we know) very important for allowing our body to perform the muscle repair necessary to become stronger and healthier, just knowing that my VA was doing 5 slow reps of the shoulder press and sit ups on the Bosu ball while I lay my head on my pillow: Well as they say in those Master Card commercials: “Priceless”.
So about 5 minutes ago I went over to Odesk and put in my request:
I am trying to build muscle using Tim Ferriss’ 4 Hour Body Occam’s Protocol but am having a hard time getting my workouts done. I am looking for somebody to go the gym for me on these days that I can not attend and do my 20 minute workout routine for me. I write a blog about this topic and am in a competition. After doing the routine I would like said person to write an article about their workout for me and post it on my blog. Also, I would like this person to track how much weight they are lifting and if possible their lean muscle mass and body fat. I will be adding this to my stats at the end of the 90 day period.
So there it goes! I figure if I can get a good applicant there is no way I can lose this challenge. Twice the workouts in half the time. Thank you 4 Hour Workweek!
- P.S. I am not opposed to hiring an American VA to do these workouts here in the States as well. Anybody willing to do this for $1.50 per hour can also apply by email. Those with experience in weight training and body composition as well as being lazy are preferred.

hahahahha this is brilliantly hilarious. plus i love the indian outsource stereotyping. and no, i’m not being remotely sarcastic
seriously dude, well done
Thanks Abhijit. Just wait it is only going to get better!!!
This is um…interesting? Haha
I wonder what Tim Ferriss would say.
Me to Tom!
I think he would be proud, or completely disgusted I am not sure. Maybe both. I know my other competitors in our P90X competition are not very happy with me. But hey that is what they get for following Tony Horton instead of Timothy Ferriss! Viva la 4 Hour Workweek. Sorry I have to go my VA is learning how to Tengo
