Description

In this week’s episode, Eric presents a Research Review about the effects of fish oil on recovery and body composition, and answers a listener’s question about body-fat set points, settling points, and alternative models to explain weight regulation. In addition, Greg shares a brief research review about sports psychology, and answers listeners’ questions about training at long muscle lengths, micro-workouts, and junk volume. To close out the show, Eric revisits the topic of seed oil scaremongering. SUPPORT THE PODCASTReceive our Research Spotlight newsletter, and check out our Facebook group and subreddit.MacroFactorIf you want to learn more about our MacroFactor diet app, check it out  here.To join in on the MacroFactor conversation, check out our Facebook group and subreddit.Bulk SupplementsFinally, next time you stock up on supplements from BulkSupplements.com, be sure to use the promo code “SBSPOD” (all caps) to get 5% off your entire order. TIME STAMPSIntro/Announcements (0:00)Research Review: Effects of fish oil on recovery and body composition (2:04)Impact of Varying Dosages of Fish Oil on Recovery and Soreness Following Eccentric ExerciseImpact of varying doses of omega-3 supplementation on muscle damage and recovery after eccentric resistance exerciseMuscle hypertrophy induced by N-3 PUFA supplementation in absence of exercise: a systematic review of randomized controlled trialsN-3 PUFA as an ergogenic supplement modulating muscle hypertrophy and strength: a systematic reviewDoes Fish Oil Have an Anti-Obesity Effect in Overweight/Obese Adults?
