Energy
As an athlete you need to get 15-25% of your total energy from 'good' fats during exercise. This fuel is a slow burn fuel that leads to sustainable energy rather than the quick burn fuel provided by sugar and other carbohydrates which quickly lead to an energy “crash”.
Endurance
Increased muscular & cardiovascular endurance
EFAs improve the body’s ability to oxygenate by making the capillary network more accessible to the blood in the body. This results in improvements in VO2 max – a measure of endurance and power output.
Recovery
Faster, more complete muscle recovery after training & competing
Reduction in inflammation – less joint and muscle soreness
Accelerated healing of injuries
The anti-inflammatory properties from the balance of Omega 3 and 6 EFAs assists joint function minimising inflammation and soreness.The efficient working of the membranes of each cell allows the efficient transfer of nutrients into the cell for optimum recovery.
Flexibilty
Improved flexibility with increased range of motion
Improved joint Function and mobility
The EFAs ensure that cell membranes operate optimally meaning that they are malleable. As the cells within the muscles are more malleable they tend to be less prone to injury.
Strength & Power
Having higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids in the muscle cell may enhance the muscle growth.
