Diet-Induced Fatigue Reduction is really the one main reason IMHO.

I agree with this wholly and completely (you can add Evening Primrose Oil on here too, but if you're getting enough Fish & Olive Oil it's basically an unnecessary additiion). These are the four oils you should really focus on, and you should REALLY be giving priority to Fish & Olive Oil...

It takes roughly 6g/ED (of Fish Oil, not EPA/DHA) over a period of a few months to get to the point where you consistently have the ligands in EPA (and DHA to a smaller extent) binding to and activating PPAR-alpha on the cellular level in muscles. This is why I consider 6g to the minimum one should consume. Higher levels of fish oil consumption are good for a hypocaloric state because:

- less inflammation
- a more permeable phospholipid membrane (and you need more fish oil consumption here because being in an energy deficit means there is a higher rate of turnover and N:3s are always oxidized first in such scenarios) means greater RQ and more effective nutrient partitioning.
- Increased good PGE2 & PGE3 production

When hypercaloric though, you do not want too much fish oil, because you will hinder anabolism because EPA/DHA in high amounts will compete with AA (Arachrondic Acid) during prostaglandin synthesis, and counteracting AA is quite detrimental for mass gains (less than ideal PGE1, less than ideal AA release/response during training will both lead to slight decreases in the adaptive growth response).

Most EPA/DHA per gram of Fish Oil.

I don't know what your diet/calorie intake is, but start by taking a Tbsp. with your last meal or pre-bed protein shake or whatever. 1-2 Tbsps./day is more than sufficient to begin reaping the benefits of Olive Oil intake.

I would go with the Now Omega-3

Not detrimental, but yes it could potentially reduce mass gains - both muscle mass and fat mass. It's just a double-edged sword - everyone is ultra-concerned because COX inhibitors reduced protein syntheses, well they also reduce lipogenesis. However, from a health perspective, increased inhibition of AA is clearly the better option, and I have yet to see evidence that it is rate-limiting to muscle growth in any way - the body exists in a delicate balance, and just because inhibiting something interferes with protein synthesis, doesn't mean increasing it will increase protein synthesis. JMHO - like I said previously, I don't think it's going to make a big difference body comp-wise, either way.

I came across an abstract at one point indicating that fish oil was much more effectively incorporated during overfeeding in humans, unfortunately I can't find it right now.

Really? Odd.

No that's not me.

Although one dude in this thread is called "lovetoeat". I should've picked that name!

its designed to create a shivering response in the body....

the theory is you burn a shitload of cal's by shivering. lol Im Not a huge fan of this product. I've used the liquid version in the energy drink section and basically spazzed out like i had parkinsons for an hour.

im sure in time it wont effect you the same. I would just use Ephedrine, Yohimbe and caffeine.

lol
