You're sort of right. Tim Ferriss broke this book up into sections that describe some pretty sweet things you can do with your body.
What is being discussed in the thread is the section about losing weight as prescribed by the "slow carb diet".
It is a potentially permanent diet as it's pretty easy to eat this way every week.
But to answer your questions Polak, there is a section in this book called "From Geek to Freak" that describes how to quickly gain muscle using diet and simple exercises (mostly kettlebells).
The slow carb diet has nothing to do with sleep. That's another section entirely that tells you how to survive on only a few hours of sleep a day. I haven't read that section yet so I can't really speak to it.
There are some other cool things like how to recover from inuries faster and so on. Its a good book.
