Fish Oil....How much?


Wondering how much fish oil you should be taking?

Check out this link to the Whole9's handy Fish Oil calculator:

It is based on Robb Wolf's formula that he talks about on almost every podcast.

I plugged in my numbers and it said I should be taking 13 pills a day!

What did it recommend for you? Is it close to what you are taking already? What are your thoughts about it?

Simplicity


I was just listening to Robb Wolf's podcast (Episode 4...there are 11! Go listen. You'll get so much good info) and he broke down the 2 biggest things that will make the most difference in your training/recovery/mood/etc. etc.

Sleep

Real Food

Robb posed this question: "Do you wake up with an alarm?" If so, you need more sleep. I know, getting up at 4:52am to get to class may, in fact, require an alarm. BUT, if you wake up quickly and bounce out of bed when that alarm goes off, ready to start your day, chances are you are well-rested. 9 hours is A LOT of sleep- especially if you have family or other obligations. But just try it for a week or two and see how you feel. See how your recovery changes. Maybe you're good with 8 or 8.5 hours...

Real food. If it has a label, don't eat it. If man made it, don't eat it. Fuel your body with good quality food. You will see immediate results in all areas of your life. There is a learning curve with this. It takes time to form new habits and break the old ones. Be patient with yourself.


Anybody out there ever made homemade beef jerky? Please share tips and websites!
